Lifecycle Hooks

Nuxt provides a powerful hooking system to expand almost every aspect using hooks powered by unjs/hookable.

Nuxt Hooks (build time)

These hooks are available for Nuxt Modules and build context.

Usage with `nuxt.config`

export default defineNuxtConfig({
  hooks: {
    'close': () => { }
  }
})

Usage with Nuxt Modules

import { defineNuxtModule } from '@nuxt/kit'

export default defineNuxtModule({
  setup (options, nuxt) {
    nuxt.hook('close', async () => { })
  })
})

App Hooks (runtime)

App hooks can be mainly used by Nuxt Plugins to hook into rendering lifecycle but could also be used in Vue composables.

Usage with Plugins

export default defineNuxtPlugin((nuxtApp) => {
    nuxtApp.hook('page:start', () => {
        /* your code goes here */
     })
})
