asyncData()

You can pull data into page component and set them locally using asyncData method. asyncData() is called every time before loading page component. And it receives Nuxt context as its first argument.

Let's set user detail using asyncData to understand how it works.

First create a data() and define an empty array variable, user - so that we can use asyncData() to set user detail.

// pages/index.vue

<script>
export default {
  data () {
    return {
      user: {}
    }
  }
}
</script>
