📖 Rule Details

This rule reports event triggers not declared with the emits option. (The emits option is a new in Vue.js 3.0.0+)

Explicit emits declaration serves as self-documenting code. This can be useful for other developers to instantly understand what events the component is supposed to emit. Also, with attribute fallthrough changes in Vue.js 3.0.0+, v-on listeners on components will fallthrough as native listeners by default. Declare it as a component-only event in emits to avoid unnecessary registration of native listeners.

<template> <!-- ✓ GOOD --> <div @click="$emit('good')" /> <!-- ✗ BAD --> <div @click="$emit('bad')" /> </template> <script> export default { emits: ['good'] } </script>
