this.$root.$emit not working in Vue

Question

I want to emit an event on the root component, and listen to in in the root component. In a child of child component I do this:

this.$root.$emit(\'access-tok         


        

Answer 1

You are not using the $root for the event $on

Change this:

this.$on('access-token', this.setAccessToken); 

for this:

this.$root.$on('access-token', this.setAccessToken);
