Vue Tip: Lifecycle Hooks for Debugging Image

Vue provides two lifecycle hooks that we can use for debugging purposes: onRenderTracked and onRenderTriggered.

These hooks are development-mode-only and not called during server-side rendering.

onRenderTracked

Registers a debug hook to be called when a reactive dependency has been tracked by the component's render effect:

<script setup>
import { ref, onRenderTracked } from 'vue'

const count = ref(0)
const count2 = ref(0)

// Called twice, once for count and once for count2
onRenderTracked((event) => {
  console.log(event)
})
</script>

onRenderTriggered

Registers a debug hook to be called when a reactive dependency triggers the component's render effect to be re-run:

<script setup>
import { ref, onRenderTriggered } from 'vue'

const count = ref(0)

// Called when we update count
onRenderTriggered((event) => {
  console.log(event)
})
</script>
