When working with modern frameworks like Vue, direct DOM manipulation may not be the best approach. It is recommended to consider using third-party Vue components over plain JavaScript widgets whenever possible.
Data attributes are more suitable for static pages where all DOM elements are available upon loading.
This specific widget modifies the built-in prototype, which is generally discouraged and should be avoided. Utilizing its API as a module is the preferred method of implementation.
An example usage could look something like this:
import Switch from 'bootstrap-switch-button';
...
<input ref="btn" type="checkbox">
...
mounted() {
this.switch = new Switch(this.$refs.btn, { ... });
}
destroyed() {
this.switch.destroy();
}
Additional API methods can be accessed through this.switch
when necessary.
Note that due to its direct manipulation of the DOM, there may be compatibility issues with Vue.
