You can load the script you need with a promise based solution:
export default {
data () {
return { is_script_loading: false }
},
created () {
// If another component is already loading the script
this.$root.$on('loading_script', e => { this.is_script_loading = true })
},
methods: {
load_script () {
let self = this
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
// if script is already loading via another component
if ( self.is_script_loading ){
// Resolve when the other component has loaded the script
this.$root.$on('script_loaded', resolve)
return
}
let script = document.createElement('script')
script.setAttribute('src', 'https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js')
script.async = true
this.$root.$emit('loading_script')
script.onload = () => {
/* emit to global event bus to inform other components
* we are already loading the script */
this.$root.$emit('script_loaded')
resolve()
}
document.head.appendChild(script)
})
},
async use_script () {
try {
await this.load_script()
// .. do what you want after script has loaded
} catch (err) { console.log(err) }
}
}
}
Please note that this.$root is a little hacky and you should use a vuex or eventHub solution for the global events instead.
You would make the above into a component and use it wherever needed, it will only load the script when used.
NOTE: This is a Vue 2.x based solution. Vue 3 has stopped supporting $on.
