useDebounceFn

Debounce execution of a function.

Debounce is an overloaded waiter: if you keep asking him your requests will be ignored until you stop and give him some time to think about your latest inquiry.

Delay is set to 1000ms and maxWait is set to 5000ms for this demo.

Button clicked: 0

Event handler called: 0

Usage

import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'

const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
  // do something
}, 1000)

document.addEventListener('resize', debouncedFn)
import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'

const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
  // do something
}, 1000)

document.addEventListener('resize', debouncedFn)

You can also pass a 3rd parameter to this, with a maximum wait time, similar to lodash debounce

import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'

// If no invokation after 5000ms due to repeated input,
// the function will be called anyway.
const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
  // do something
}, 1000, { maxWait: 5000 })

document.addEventListener('resize', debouncedFn)
import { useDebounceFn } from '@vueuse/core'

// If no invokation after 5000ms due to repeated input,
// the function will be called anyway.
const debouncedFn = useDebounceFn(() => {
  // do something
}, 1000, { maxWait: 5000 })

document.addEventListener('resize', debouncedFn)
