I would like to have a dynamic breadcrumbs based on where I clicked on a category but I get an error that says my variable is undefined: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'homeMenu'). Yet in my getHomeCategory function, the console.log of homeCategory displays Perma'Thèque. I don’t understand how to do it, thanks
Here is the code :
<script>
export default {
props: {
},
data: () => ({
homeMenu: "",
breadcrumbs: [
{
text: 'Accueil',
disabled: false,
href: '/',
},
{
text: this.homeMenu,
disabled: false,
href: "/" + this.homeMenu,
},
],
}),
computed: {
...mapGetters({
console: () => console,
homeCategory: 'home/getCategory',
})
},
methods: {
getHomeCategory () {
if (this.homeCategory === "Perma'Thèque") {
console.log(this.homeCategory)
return this.homeMenu = "permatheque"
} else {
return this.homeMenu = "null"
}
},
},
mounted() {
if (this.plantActive) this.loading = false;
this.getHomeCategory()
}
}
</script>

Answer
data() is declared here as an arrow function, so this refers to the outer scope, not the Vue component instance, but even as a regular function here, this.homeMenu won’t yet exist.
It seems that you actually want breadcrumbs to be reactive to homeMenu, so you should move breadcrumbs to a computed prop:
export default {
data: () => ({
homeMenu: '',
}),
computed: {
breadcrumbs() {
return [
{
text: 'Accueil',
disabled: false,
href: '/',
},
{
text: this.homeMenu,
disabled: false,
href: '/' + this.homeMenu,
},
]
}
}
}
