The installation process for Nuxt's plugins/modules system can be quite intricate. Despite attempting to follow various suggestions, I have struggled to accomplish a seemingly simple task. After installing the NPM package csv-parse (which can be found here), I proceeded to create a file named csv-parse.js within my project's plugins directory. In this file, I included the following code:
import Vue from 'vue';
import CsvParse from 'csv-parse';
Vue.use(CsvParse);
Following this, I added
{ src: "~/plugins/csv-parse", mode: "client" }nuxt.config.js file (as I only require the use of this package client-side).
Despite resources such as Nuxt's documentation and other answers on Stack Overflow suggesting that you can now globally utilize this package in your components, no clear guidance is provided on how to actually implement it within a component. Here are some of the attempts I made:
// @/components/Hospitals/Crud.vue
...
<script>
export default {
methods: {
parseFileData() {
console.log('parser:', CsvParser); // ReferenceError: CsvParser is not defined
console.log('parser:', $CsvParser); // ReferenceError: $CsvParser is not defined
console.log('parser:', this.CsvParser); // undefined
console.log('parser:', this.$CsvParser); // undefined
}
}
}
</script>
...
Could someone please provide clarity on how to effectively utilize custom NPM packages globally within a Nuxt project?
