#vue is an easy-to-use framework with many convenient functions integrated inside it. The most distinctive function is its responsive system hidden at the bottom. Component states are all responsive JavaScript objects. When you change them, the view updates, making state management easier and more intuitive. So, how is the Vue responsive system implemented? This article is also based on the understanding and imitation implementation after reading the Vue source code, so follow the author's ideas and let's explore Vue from the shallower to the deeper!

The Vue source code version of this article: 2.6.14. In order to facilitate understanding, the code is simplified.
When you pass an ordinary JavaScript object into a Vue instance as the data option, Vue will traverse the object All properties, and use Object.defineProperty to convert all these properties into getters/setters, and then run around the getters/setters.
A summary of Vue's responsive system in one sentence is: Observer mode Object.defineProperty intercepts getter/setter
Object.defineProperty() method will directly define a new property on an object, or modify an existing property of an object. and returns this object.
Simply put, the property defined in this way will trigger get when executing obj.xxx, and set will be triggered when executing obj.xxx = xxx. This is the key to responsiveness.
Object.defineProperty is a feature in ES5 that cannot be shimmed (cannot be implemented through polyfill), which is why Vue does not support IE8 and lower browsers.
Now, let’s implement a simple one based on Object.defineProperty Responsive update system as an "appetizer"
let data = {};
// 使用一个中间变量保存 value
let value = "hello";
// 用一个集合保存数据的响应更新函数
let fnSet = new Set();
// 在 data 上定义 text 属性
Object.defineProperty(data, "text", {
enumerable: true,
configurable: true,
set(newValue) {
value = newValue;
// 数据变化
fnSet.forEach((fn) => fn());
},
get() {
fnSet.add(fn);
return value;
},
});
// 将 data.text 渲染到页面上
function fn() {
document.body.innerText = data.text;
}
// 执行函数，触发读取 get
fn();
// 一秒后改变数据，触发 set 更新
setTimeout(() => {
data.text = "world";
}, 1000);Next we run this code in the browser and will get the desired effect
Through the above code, I think you are interested in responsive You already have a certain understanding of how the system works. In order to make this "appetizer" easy to digest, this simple reactive system still has many shortcomings. For example: data and response update functions are strongly coupled together through hard coding, only achieve a one-to-one situation, and not modular enough. Wait... So next, let's complete it one by one.
To design a complete responsive system, we need to first understand a prerequisite knowledge, what is the observer pattern?
What is the observer pattern?
It is a behavioral design pattern that allows you to define a subscription mechanism that can notify multiple other objects that "observe" the object when an object event occurs.
Objects that have some status worthy of attention are usually called targets. Because it needs to notify other objects when its own status changes, we also call it a publisher. . All other objects that wish to follow changes in the publisher's state are called subscribers. In addition, the publisher interacts directly with all subscribers only through the interface, and they all must have the same interface.
For example?:
You (i.e. the subscriber in the application) are interested in the weekly magazine of a certain bookstore, you give the boss (i.e. the application The publisher in ) left a phone number and asked the boss to call you as soon as a new weekly was available. Others who were interested in this weekly also left phone numbers for the boss. When the new weekly arrives, the boss calls one by one to notify readers to pick it up.
If a reader accidentally leaves a QQ number instead of a phone number, the old version will not be able to get through when calling, and the reader will not receive notifications. This is what we said above, it must have the same interface.
After understanding the observer pattern, we began to design a responsive system.
Abstract observer (subscriber) class Watcher
在上面的例子中，数据和响应更新函数是通过硬编码强耦合在一起的。而实际开发过程中，更新函数不一定叫fn，更有可能是一个匿名函数。所以我们需要抽像一个观察者（订阅者）类Watcher来保存并执行更新函数，同时向外提供一个update更新接口。
// Watcher 观察者可能有 n 个，我们为了区分它们，保证唯一性，增加一个 uid
let watcherId = 0;
// 当前活跃的 Watcher
let activeWatcher = null;
class Watcher {
constructor(cb) {
this.uid = watcherId++;
// 更新函数
this.cb = cb;
// 保存 watcher 订阅的所有数据
this.deps = [];
// 初始化时执行更新函数
this.get();
}
// 求值函数
get() {
// 调用更新函数时，将 activeWatcher 指向当前 watcher
activeWatcher = this;
this.cb();
// 调用完重置
activeWatcher = null;
}
// 数据更新时，调用该函数重新求值
update() {
this.get();
}
}抽象被观察者（发布者）类Dep
我们再想一想，实际开发过程中，data 中肯定不止一个数据，而且每个数据，都有不同的订阅者，所以说我们还需要抽象一个被观察者（发布者）Dep类来保存数据对应的观察者（Watcher），以及数据变化时通知观察者更新。
class Dep {
constructor() {
// 保存所有该依赖项的订阅者
this.subs = [];
}
addSubs() {
// 将 activeWatcher 作为订阅者，放到 subs 中
// 防止重复订阅
if(this.subs.indexOf(activeWatcher) === -1){
this.subs.push(activeWatcher);
}
}
notify() {
// 先保存旧的依赖,便于下面遍历通知更新
const deps = this.subs.slice()
// 每次更新前，清除上一次收集的依赖，下次执行时，重新收集
this.subs.length = 0;
deps.forEach((watcher) => {
watcher.update();
});
}
}抽象 Observer
现在，Watcher和Dep只是两个独立的模块，我们怎么把它们关联起来呢？
答案就是Object.defineProperty，在数据被读取，触发get方法，Dep 将当前触发 get 的 Watcher 当做订阅者放到 subs中，Watcher 就与 Dep建立关系；在数据被修改，触发set方法，Dep就遍历 subs 中的订阅者，通知Watcher更新。
下面我们就来完善将数据转换为getter/setter的处理。
上面基础的响应式系统实现中，我们只定义了一个响应式数据，当 data 中有其他property时我们就处理不了了。所以，我们需要抽象一个 Observer类来完成对 data数据的遍历，并调用defineReactive转换为 getter/setter，最终完成响应式绑定。
为了简化，我们只处理data中单层数据。
class Observer {
constructor(value) {
this.value = value;
this.walk(value);
}
// 遍历 keys，转换为 getter/setter
walk(obj) {
const keys = Object.keys(obj);
for (let i = 0; i <p>这里我们通过参数 value 的闭包，来保存最新的数据，避免新增其他变量</p><pre class="brush:php;toolbar:false">function defineReactive(target, key, value) {
// 每一个数据都是一个被观察者
const dep = new Dep();
Object.defineProperty(target, key, {
enumerable: true,
configurable: true,
// 执行 data.xxx 时 get 触发，进行依赖收集，watcher 订阅 dep
get() {
if (activeWatcher) {
// 订阅
dep.addSubs(activeWatcher);
}
return value;
},
// 执行 data.xxx = xxx 时 set 触发，遍历订阅了该 dep 的 watchers，
// 调用 watcher.updata 更新
set(newValue) {
// 如果前后值相等，没必要跟新
if (value === newVal) {
return;
}
value = newValue;
// 派发更新
dep.notify();
},
});
}至此，响应式系统就大功告成了！！
测试
我们通过下面代码测试一下：
let data = {
name: "张三",
age: 18,
address: "成都",
};
// 模拟 render
const render1 = () => {
console.warn("-------------watcher1--------------");
console.log("The name value is", data.name);
console.log("The age value is", data.age);
console.log("The address value is", data.address);
};
const render2 = () => {
console.warn("-------------watcher2--------------");
console.log("The name value is", data.name);
console.log("The age value is", data.age);
};
// 先将 data 转换成响应式
new Observer(data);
// 实例观察者
new Watcher(render1);
new Watcher(render2);在浏览器中运行这段代码，和我们期望的一样，两个render都执行了，并且在控制台上打印了结果。
我们尝试修改 data.name = '李四 23333333'，测试两个 render 都会重新执行：
我们只修改 data.address = '北京'，测试一下是否只有render 1回调都会重新执行：
都完美通过测试！！?
总结
Vue响应式原理的核心就是Observer、Dep、Watcher，三者共同构成 MVVM 中的 VM
Observer中进行数据响应式处理以及最终的Watcher 和Dep关系绑定，在数据被读的时候，触发get方法，将 Watcher收集到 Dep中作为依赖；在数据被修改的时候，触发set方法，Dep就遍历 subs 中的订阅者，通知Watcher更新。
