Lifecycle Hooks

Whenever a Wire component is included on the page it undergoes a series of steps which we call Lifecycle hooks. These hooks allow us to intervene at any step during the component's lifecycle , or before specific properties are updated.

Hooks	Description
boot	Runs on every request, immediately after the component is instantiated, but before any other lifecycle methods are called
booted	Runs on every request, after the component is mounted or hydrated, but before any update methods are called
mount	Runs once, immediately after the component is instantiated, but before `render()` is called. This is only called once on initial page load and never called again, even on component refreshes
hydrate	Runs on every subsequent request, after the component is hydrated, but before an action is performed, or `render()` is called
hydrateFoo	Runs after a property called `$foo` is hydrated
dehydrate	Runs on every subsequent request, before the component is dehydrated, but after `render()` is called
dehydrateFoo	Runs before a property called `$foo` is dehydrated
updating	Runs before any update to the Wire component's data (Using `wire:model`, not directly inside PHP)
updated	Runs after any update to the Wire component's data (Using `wire:model`, not directly inside PHP)
updatingFoo	Runs before a property called `$foo` is updated. Array properties have an additional `$key` argument passed to this function to specify changing element inside array, like `updatingArray($value, $key)`
updatedFoo	Runs after a property called `$foo` is updated. Array properties have additional `$key` argument as above
updatingFooBar	Runs before updating a nested property `bar` on the `$foo` property or a multiword property such as `$fooBar` or `$foo_bar`
updatedFooBar	Runs after updating a nested property `bar` on the `$foo` property or a multiword property such as `$fooBar` or `$foo_bar`

Note! Modifying a value of a property directly inside a Wire component class doesn't trigger any of the updating/updated hooks.

A hook can be implemented as following:

class FooComponent extends WireComponent {

  public string $foo;

  public function boot() { }

  public function booted() { }

  public function mount() { }

  public function hydrateFoo($value) { }

  public function dehydrateFoo($value) { }
  
  public function hydrate() { }
  
  public function dehydrate() {}

  public function updating($name, $value) { }

  public function updated($name, $value) { }

  public function updatingFoo($value) { }

  public function updatedFoo($value) { }

  public function updatingFooBar($value) { }

  public function updatedFooBar($value) { }

}

Javascript can be executed during certain events.

component.initialized	Component has been initialized on the page
element.initialized	When an individual element is initialized
element.updating	Before an element is updated during its DOM-diffing cycle after a network roundtrip
element.updated	After an element is updated during its DOM-diffing cycle after a network roundtrip
element.removed	Called after Wire removes an element during its DOM-diffing cycle
message.sent	Called when a Wire update triggers a message sent to the server via AJAX
message.failed	Called if the message send fails for some reason
message.received	Called when a message has finished its roudtrip, but before Wire updates the DOM
message.processed	Called after Wire processes all side effects (including DOM-diffing) from a message
