How to use vuex in electron if the app has multiple separate windows?

Question

Vue.js

There is an application on electron.js with vue.js, we use vuex. There was a task where it is necessary to make a separate window, but I would like to use a common store. Need advice on how to achieve this? We considered the vuex-electron plugin, but it does not fit (since not all mutations go through actions). I don’t represent options other than ipcRenderer yet.

Answer 1

You need a plugin. Like vuex -shared-mutations . It uses BroadcastChannel, which in theory can work in a multi-window electron. Well, if it doesn’t take off, you can write your own strategy using ipc and integrate it into this plugin
