I am using vuejs (CLI 3) with axios and sockets. My backend is NodeJs.

Html (view all users):

...

<ul v-if="users.length > 0">

  <li v-for="user in users" :key="user.id">

     <router-link :to="'/oneuser/' + user.permalink" tag="li" active-class="active" @click.native="setmyid(user._id)">

        <a>{{ user.name }} - {{ user.last_name }}</a>

     </router-link>

  </li>

</ul>

...

<script>

import axios from 'axios'

import io from 'socket.io-client'

export default {

  name: 'get-user',

  data () {

    return {

      users: ,

      socket: io('localhost:7000')

    }

  },

  methods: {

    mycall () {

      axios.get('http://localhost:7000/api/users')

        .then(res => {

          // console.log(res)

          const data = res.data

          const users = 

          for (let key in data) {

            const user = data[key]

            user.id = key

            users.push(user)

          }

          // console.log(users)

          this.users = users

        })

        .catch(error => console.log(error))

    }

  }

  mounted () {

    this.mycall()

    this.socket.on('user-deleted', function (data) {

      this.mycall()

    })

  }

}

</script>

Html (user view):

<script>

import axios from 'axios'

export default {

  name: 'one-user',

  data () {

    return {

      name: '',

      surname: '',

      id: localStorage.getItem('usId'),

      socket: io('localhost:7000')

    }

  },

  mounted () {

    axios.get('http://localhost:7000/api/get-user/' + this.id)

      .then(res => {

        const data = res.data

        this.name = data.name

        this.surname = data.last_name

      })

      .catch(error => console.log(error))

  },

  methods: {

    mySubmit () {

      const formData = {

        _id: this.id

      }

      axios.post('http://localhost:7000/api/delete-user', formData)

        .then(this.$router.push({ name: 'get-user' }))

        .catch(error => console.log(error))

    }

  }

}

</script> 

backend NodeJs:

controller.postDeleteUser = function(req,res){        

    User.deleteOne({"_id" : req.body._id}, function(err){

        io.emit('user-deleted', req.body._id);

        res.send('ok');

    });    

};

When I go to user view and delete the user then it directs me to view all users. I have two major problems here.

1) After redirect, I saw again all the users even the deleted one. In my database the user has deleted correctly.

2) I don't know where exactly and how to use sockets in my code.

I am using in the front the socket.io-client npm plugin. Also I don't want to use (and I don't use it in my code) vue-socket.io because IE 11 and below version are not supported and it throws me some errors.

What I have tried so far:

1) Using watch like this:

watch: {

  users: function (newValue) {

    newValue = this.mycall()

  }

}

This is very bad for browser performance, because always call request from the browser.

2) use beforeUpdate or Updated life-cycle:

updated () {

 this.mycall()

}

That works but has bad performance. It makes requests many times to the server.

3) or that with sockets

updated () {     

 this.socket.on('user-deleted', function (data) {

   this.mycall()

 })

}

and that throws me an error:

this.mycall() is not a function

What am I doing wrong?
Where to put the code with sockets?

I have changed the view all users file to:

...

methods: {

  mycall () {

    axios.get('http://localhost:7000/api/users')

     .then(res => {

       const data = res.data

       const users = 

       for (let key in data) {

         const user = data[key]

         user.id = key

         users.push(user)

       }

       this.users = users

     })

     .catch(error => console.log(error))

  },

  socketcall (thecall) {

    this.socket.on(thecall, (data) => {

      this.mycall()

    })

  }

}

....

created () {

  this.mycall()

},

mounted () {

  this.socketcall('user-deleted')

}

Life cycle-hooks cannot retrieved functions inside "this.socket.on" so I thought to do like above and it works!
