Vue 'mounted' Lifecycle Hook — Vue

Example

Using the mounted lifecycle hook to put the cursor inside the input field as soon as the component is mounted.

html

<script>
export default {
	mounted() {
		this.$refs.inpName.focus();
	}
}
</script>

Definition and Usage

The mounted lifecycle hook happens after the Vue component is mounted to the DOM tree.

Because the component is mounted, we can access the properties that belong to the component instance such as data or computed, and we can access the component's DOM elements because they have just been mounted to the DOM.
