Knowledge of Vue.js and Taco WordPress
Simply require resource-library and create a new instance to use. See sample/news-articles-sample.vue
for an example implementation for news articles in single file Vue format. sample/news-article-sample.html
contains an example of how to instantiate the Resource Library in HTML.
Ideally, all manupulation of the Resource Library will occur within Vue, but it is also possible to interact with it using external controls. sample/news-articles-sample.js
contains several examples of how to communicate from the Vue instance to an external element using triggerRootElement()
, as well as how to communicate from an external element back to the Vue instance.
Below is the API documentation to use within the Vue instance.
