Call parent method with component

Yes!

It’s possible to call a parent method from a child and it’s very easy.

Each Vue component define the property $parent. From this property you can then call any method that exist in the parent.

Here is a JSFiddle that does it : https://jsfiddle.net/50qt9ce3/1/

<script src="https://unpkg.com/vue"></script>

<template id="child-template">
    <span @click="someMethod">Click me!</span>
</template>

<div id="app">
  <child></child>
</div>

<script>
Vue.component('child', {
  template: '#child-template',
  methods: {
    someMethod(){
        this.$parent.someMethod();
    }
    }
});

var app = new Vue({
    el: '#app',
  methods: {
    someMethod(){
        alert('parent');
    }
    }
});
</script>

Note: While it’s not recommended to do this kind of thing when you are building disconnected reusable components, sometimes we are building related non-reusable component and in this case it’s very handy.
