As I dive into my first Vue app, I've encountered a minor setback.
Here's my query: How can I iterate through a list of dictionaries in Vue, specifically looping through one dictionary only if it contains a certain value for a given key?
Providing some context, the project is an online shop. My goal is to cycle through the categories in the data and display the products within each category.
The data structure looks like this:
data = {
"categories": [
{
"title": "Pants",
"products": [
{
"name": "Levi Strauss",
"price": "$49.99",
}
]
},
{
"title": "Sneakers",
"products": [
{
"name": "Adidas",
"price": "$149.99",
}
]
}, {...}
I'm struggling with targeting a nested dictionary based on a specific key/value pair. Coming from a Python background, I was hoping for a v-for syntax similar to Python's concise approach, like:
<template
v-for="category.product in categories.products if category.title === Sneakers">
<p>{{ product.name }}</p>
<p>{{ product.price }}</p>
However, after thorough research, I haven't found such functionality documented or available in Vue. It seems I need to rethink my strategy. Some alternative options I've considered include:
1. Restructuring the JS Object
If I simplify the structure by assigning the category title as the key, I may streamline the process of accessing specific dictionaries and values.
2. Utilizing Vue Components
Although I'm not well-versed in incorporating components within Vue, another Stack Overflow suggestion pointed me in this direction. Through the Vue documentation, it appears components could be a feasible solution.
Thank you for taking the time to explore my lengthy inquiry. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Please don't hesitate to suggest any revisions for clarity purposes.
