Access Global Event Bus Outside Vue Files (v.0.15.1)

[snowdrop]

Is there any way to access global event bus outside Vue files on v0.15.1? The documentation only says on how to use it inside of Vue files but not outside. Thanks

Had this problem too.
I created my own global event bus using this tutorial:

@Nicholas that’s also what I’m going to do if there is no way for now. Seems not possible I think. Would be great if there is a workaround.

It would be nice to get the Events component back in 0.15.1.

[snowdrop]

Yeah. I have resorted on creating my own Event Bus for the mean time.

Same here.

This really depends where you are accessing the event bus. For example in a Vuex store you can pass the vue instance to the store when dispatching an action

@benoitranque Sounds good, could you maybe give some code example of this?

[benoitranque]

Never mind. You can access the vue instance with this._vm inside the store. So this._vm.$emit should work
