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 defineNuxtPlugin(nuxtApp) {
  nuxtApp.hook('page:start', () => { })
}
