So I figured  0   vue   doesn t work very well with HOCs  high order components       ListItem vue  lt template gt       lt vm-product-item  gt   lt template gt    From the template above  if you have ListItem component  that has ProductItem as it s root  and you try  0   vue   in console the result unexpectedly would be the ListItem instance    Here I got a solution to select the lowest level component  ProductItem in this case    Plugin     DomNodeToComponent js export default     install   Vue  options    gt        Vue mixin         mounted              this  el   vueComponent     this                          Install  import DomNodeToComponent from   plugins DomNodeToComponent DomNodeToComponent  Vue use DomNodeToComponent    Use   In browser console click on dom element  Type  0   vueComponent    Do whatever you want with component  Access data  Do changes  Run exposed methods from e2e    Bonus feature  If you want more  you can just use  0   vue    parent  Meaning if 3 components share the same dom node  you ll have to write  0   vue    parent  parent to get the main component  This approach is less laconic  but gives better control

The proper way to do with would be to use the v-el directive to give it a reference  Then you can do this    reference    Update for vue 2  In Vue 2 refs are used for both elements and components  http   vuejs org guide migration html v-el-and-v-ref-replaced

If you re starting with a DOM element  check for a   vue   property on that element  Any Vue View Models  components  VMs created by v-repeat usage  will have this property   You can use the  Inspect Element  feature in your browsers developer console  at least in Firefox and Chrome  to view the DOM properties   Hope that helps

Since v-ref is no longer a directive  but a special attribute  it can also be dynamically defined  This is especially useful in combination with v-for    For example    lt ul gt       lt li v-for   item  key  in items  v-on click  play item  event   gt           lt a v-bind ref   key    item id  v-bind href  item url  gt               lt  -- content -- gt           lt  a gt       lt  li gt   lt  ul gt    and in Vue component you can use   var recordingModel   new Vue     el   rec-container     data       items            methods       play function key e            it contains the bound reference       console log this  refs  item  key

Since in Vue 2 0  no solution seems available  a clean solution that I found is to create a vue-id attribute  and also set it on the template  Then on created and beforeDestroy lifecycle these instances are updated on the global object   Basically   created  function         this  id   generateUid        globalRepo this  id    this      beforeDestroy  function         delete globalRepo this  id      data  function         return           vueId  this  id

I found this snippet here  The idea is to go up the DOM node hierarchy until a   vue   property is found   function getVueFromElement el      while  el        if  el   vue            return el   vue         else         el   el parentNode               In Chrome
