How can I handle errors in Vuex with error boundaries?

You can handle errors in Vuex by implementing error boundaries in your components. This allows you to catch errors in the Vuex store and display fallback UI.

Can you show me a code example of how to implement this?

Sure! You can create a higher-order component that wraps your Vuex-connected components. Here's a simple example:

const ErrorBoundary = {
  render(h) {
    if (this.error) {
      return h('div', 'Something went wrong!');
    }
    return this.$slots.default;
  },
  data() {
    return { error: null };
  },
  errorCaptured(err) {
    this.error = err;
    return false; // prevent the error from propagating
  }
};

Then wrap your component with <ErrorBoundary>.

What if I want to log the errors to an external service?

You can modify the errorCaptured method to log errors to an external service like Sentry or LogRocket. Just add a logging function inside that method.

Is there a way to reset the error state?

Yes, you can add a method to reset the error state, which can be called when the user interacts with the UI, like clicking a button.
