In VueJS, how can I generate dynamic background images based on the Route?

Time:03-24

Is there a way in VueJS to create dynamic backgrounds based on the Route? For instance, I have the followings routes:

const routes = [
  {
    path: "/",
    name: "home",
    component: HomeView,
  },
  {
    path: "/:col",
    name: "collections",
    component: () =>
      import(
        /* webpackChunkName: "collections" */ "../views/CollectionsView.vue"
      ),
    children: [
      {
        path: "staked",
        name: "staked",
        component: () =>
          import(/* webpackChunkName: "staked" */ "../views/StakedView.vue"),
      },
      {
        path: "unstaked",
        name: "unstaked",
        component: () =>
          import(
            /* webpackChunkName: "unstaked" */ "../views/UnstakedView.vue"
          ),
      },
    ],
  },
];

I would like to set a different background image for each of the dynamic routes under the named route "collections", so "/collection1/..." would display a different background image than "/collection2/.

Here is my template inside AppView.vue:

<template>
  <div >
    <div
      :style="{
        backgroundImage: image,
      }"
    >
      <TheAppHeader />
      <div >
        <TheTitle />
        <router-view />
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</template>

I don't know how I can grab that collection name from the route and use it to get the desired background image into "".

My background images are all in the /src/assets/ directory.

Any ideas? Thank you!

You can use watch property for this

watch: {
  '$route.params'(currentParam) {
    if (currentParam == '/collection1') {
      this.image = <put your image here>
    }
    else if (currentParam == '/collection2') {
      this.image = <put your another image here>
    }
  }
}

Please use to colsole current param to check your required/target values

Can use $route.params like this.

watch: {
  '$route.params'(currentParam) {
      this.image = `assets/images/${currentParam}.jpg`
    // i.e. assets/images/collection1.jpg

  }
}
