vue源码7----createComponent

之前分析createElement的时候，它的else逻辑会通过createComponent方法创建一个组件vnode

if (typeof tag === 'string') {
    ...
}
else {
    // direct component options / constructor
    vnode = createComponent(tag, data, context, children)
}

createComponent定义在src/core/vdom/create-component.js 中

export function createComponent (
  Ctor: Class<Component> | Function | Object | void,
  data: ?VNodeData,
  context: Component,
  children: ?Array<VNode>,
  tag?: string
): VNode | Array<VNode> | void {
  if (isUndef(Ctor)) {
    return
  }

  const baseCtor = context.$options._base
    
  // plain options object: turn it into a constructor
  if (isObject(Ctor)) {
    Ctor = baseCtor.extend(Ctor)
  }

  // if at this stage it's not a constructor or an async component factory,
  // reject.
  if (typeof Ctor !== 'function') {
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
      warn(`Invalid Component definition: ${String(Ctor)}`, context)
    }
    return
  }

  // async component
  let asyncFactory
  if (isUndef(Ctor.cid)) {
    asyncFactory = Ctor
    Ctor = resolveAsyncComponent(asyncFactory, baseCtor)
    if (Ctor === undefined) {
      // return a placeholder node for async component, which is rendered
      // as a comment node but preserves all the raw information for the node.
      // the information will be used for async server-rendering and hydration.
      return createAsyncPlaceholder(
        asyncFactory,
        data,
        context,
        children,
        tag
      )
    }
  }

  data = data || {}

  // resolve constructor options in case global mixins are applied after
  // component constructor creation
  resolveConstructorOptions(Ctor)

  // transform component v-model data into props & events
  if (isDef(data.model)) {
    transformModel(Ctor.options, data)
  }

  // extract props
  const propsData = extractPropsFromVNodeData(data, Ctor, tag)

  // functional component
  if (isTrue(Ctor.options.functional)) {
    return createFunctionalComponent(Ctor, propsData, data, context, children)
  }

  // extract listeners, since these needs to be treated as
  // child component listeners instead of DOM listeners
  const listeners = data.on
  // replace with listeners with .native modifier
  // so it gets processed during parent component patch.
  data.on = data.nativeOn

  if (isTrue(Ctor.options.abstract)) {
    // abstract components do not keep anything
    // other than props & listeners & slot

    // work around flow
    const slot = data.slot
    data = {}
    if (slot) {
      data.slot = slot
    }
  }

  // install component management hooks onto the placeholder node
  installComponentHooks(data)

  // return a placeholder vnode
  const name = Ctor.options.name || tag
  const vnode = new VNode(
    `vue-component-${Ctor.cid}${name ? `-${name}` : ''}`,
    data, undefined, undefined, undefined, context,
    { Ctor, propsData, listeners, tag, children },
    asyncFactory
  )

  // Weex specific: invoke recycle-list optimized @render function for
  // extracting cell-slot template.
  // https://github.com/Hanks10100/weex-native-directive/tree/master/component
  /* istanbul ignore if */
  if (__WEEX__ && isRecyclableComponent(vnode)) {
    return renderRecyclableComponentTemplate(vnode)
  }

  return vnode
}

这里的重点是

1. 创建子组件的构造函数
2. 安装组件钩子函数
3. 实例化vnode

首先是创建子组件构造函数

const baseCtor = context.$options._base
    
  // plain options object: turn it into a constructor
  if (isObject(Ctor)) {
    Ctor = baseCtor.extend(Ctor)
  }

这里的baseCtor实际上来源于src/core/global-api/index.js中的

// this is used to identify the "base" constructor to extend all plain-object
  // components with in Weex's multi-instance scenarios.
  Vue.options._base = Vue

也就是说baseCtor.extend(Ctor)就是Vue.extend
接着看extend src/core/global-api/extend.js

Vue.extend = function (extendOptions: Object): Function {
    extendOptions = extendOptions || {}
    const Super = this
    const SuperId = Super.cid
    const cachedCtors = extendOptions._Ctor || (extendOptions._Ctor = {})
    if (cachedCtors[SuperId]) {
      return cachedCtors[SuperId]
    }

    const name = extendOptions.name || Super.options.name
    if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' && name) {
      validateComponentName(name)
    }

    const Sub = function VueComponent (options) {
      this._init(options)
    }
    Sub.prototype = Object.create(Super.prototype)
    Sub.prototype.constructor = Sub
    Sub.cid = cid++
    Sub.options = mergeOptions(
      Super.options,
      extendOptions
    )
    Sub['super'] = Super

    // For props and computed properties, we define the proxy getters on
    // the Vue instances at extension time, on the extended prototype. This
    // avoids Object.defineProperty calls for each instance created.
    if (Sub.options.props) {
      initProps(Sub)
    }
    if (Sub.options.computed) {
      initComputed(Sub)
    }

    // allow further extension/mixin/plugin usage
    Sub.extend = Super.extend
    Sub.mixin = Super.mixin
    Sub.use = Super.use

    // create asset registers, so extended classes
    // can have their private assets too.
    ASSET_TYPES.forEach(function (type) {
      Sub[type] = Super[type]
    })
    // enable recursive self-lookup
    if (name) {
      Sub.options.components[name] = Sub
    }

    // keep a reference to the super options at extension time.
    // later at instantiation we can check if Super's options have
    // been updated.
    Sub.superOptions = Super.options
    Sub.extendOptions = extendOptions
    Sub.sealedOptions = extend({}, Sub.options)

    // cache constructor
    cachedCtors[SuperId] = Sub
    return Sub
  }
}

就是通过原型继承的方式把一个对象转换为继承了Vue特性的构造函数
同时这里也对新生成的构造函数做了缓存 cachedCtors[SuperId] = Sub

安装组件钩子函数

主要是将

const componentVNodeHooks = {
  init (vnode: VNodeWithData, hydrating: boolean): ?boolean {
    if (
      vnode.componentInstance &&
      !vnode.componentInstance._isDestroyed &&
      vnode.data.keepAlive
    ) {
      // kept-alive components, treat as a patch
      const mountedNode: any = vnode // work around flow
      componentVNodeHooks.prepatch(mountedNode, mountedNode)
    } else {
      const child = vnode.componentInstance = createComponentInstanceForVnode(
        vnode,
        activeInstance
      )
      child.$mount(hydrating ? vnode.elm : undefined, hydrating)
    }
  },

  prepatch (oldVnode: MountedComponentVNode, vnode: MountedComponentVNode) {
    const options = vnode.componentOptions
    const child = vnode.componentInstance = oldVnode.componentInstance
    updateChildComponent(
      child,
      options.propsData, // updated props
      options.listeners, // updated listeners
      vnode, // new parent vnode
      options.children // new children
    )
  },

  insert (vnode: MountedComponentVNode) {
    const { context, componentInstance } = vnode
    if (!componentInstance._isMounted) {
      componentInstance._isMounted = true
      callHook(componentInstance, 'mounted')
    }
    if (vnode.data.keepAlive) {
      if (context._isMounted) {
        // vue-router#1212
        // During updates, a kept-alive component's child components may
        // change, so directly walking the tree here may call activated hooks
        // on incorrect children. Instead we push them into a queue which will
        // be processed after the whole patch process ended.
        queueActivatedComponent(componentInstance)
      } else {
        activateChildComponent(componentInstance, true /* direct */)
      }
    }
  },

  destroy (vnode: MountedComponentVNode) {
    const { componentInstance } = vnode
    if (!componentInstance._isDestroyed) {
      if (!vnode.data.keepAlive) {
        componentInstance.$destroy()
      } else {
        deactivateChildComponent(componentInstance, true /* direct */)
      }
    }
  }
}

中的组件钩子合并到

function installComponentHooks (data: VNodeData) {
  const hooks = data.hook || (data.hook = {})
  for (let i = 0; i < hooksToMerge.length; i++) {
    const key = hooksToMerge[i]
    const existing = hooks[key]
    const toMerge = componentVNodeHooks[key]
    if (existing !== toMerge && !(existing && existing._merged)) {
      hooks[key] = existing ? mergeHook(toMerge, existing) : toMerge
    }
  }
}

dataHooks中去
合并策略就是

function mergeHook (f1: any, f2: any): Function {
  const merged = (a, b) => {
    // flow complains about extra args which is why we use any
    f1(a, b)
    f2(a, b)
  }
  merged._merged = true
  return merged
}

新加入钩子时，如果某个钩子已经存在，最终执行的时候，依次执行这两个钩子函数即可

实例化vnode

const name = Ctor.options.name || tag
  const vnode = new VNode(
    `vue-component-${Ctor.cid}${name ? `-${name}` : ''}`,
    data, undefined, undefined, undefined, context,
    { Ctor, propsData, listeners, tag, children },
    asyncFactory
  )
  return vnode

通过new vnode返回一个vnode实例,组件的vnode是没有在构造函数中传children的，它的这点需要注意

export default class VNode {
  tag: string | void;
  data: VNodeData | void;
  children: ?Array<VNode>; //这个参数没有传
  text: string | void;
  elm: Node | void;
  ns: string | void;
  context: Component | void; // rendered in this component's scope
  key: string | number | void;
  componentOptions: VNodeComponentOptions | void;
  componentInstance: Component | void; // component instance
  parent: VNode | void; // component placeholder node
