Vuelidate $v is undefined in Vue component

Question

Nothing I've found has fixed this issue. I am getting the following error for this Vue component. I am trying to use the Vuelidate library to validate my form. Any idea what I am missing here?

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property '$v' of undefined




<script>
    import Vue from "vue";
    import Vuelidate from "vuelidate";
    import { required, minLength, email, sameAs } from "vuelidate/lib/validators";
    
    Vue.use(Vuelidate);
    
    const hasUpperCase = (value) =>
      value.match(/(?=.*\d)(?=.*[a-z])(?=.*[A-Z])(?=.*\W)/);
    export default {
      validations: {
        form: {
          Email: {
            required: required,
            isEmail: email,
          },
          ConfirmEmail: {
            required: required,
            isEmail: email,
            match: sameAs(this.$v.form.Email),
          },
        },
      },
    };
    </script>

My Main.js

import Vue from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";
import router from "./router";
import store from "./store";
import vuetify from "./plugins/vuetify";
import Vuelidate from "vuelidate";
Vue.use(Vuelidate);
Vue.config.productionTip = false;

new Vue({
  router,
  store,
  vuetify,
  validations:{},
  render: (h) => h(App)
}).$mount("#app");

First of all, install it using this command: npm install vuelidate --save

I would recommend us to define it globally by importing it in your src/main.js file like this

import Vuelidate from 'vuelidate';
Vue.use(Vuelidate)

After this is done import your validator classes into your component:

import { required, minLength, email, sameAs } from "vuelidate/lib/validators";

A good practice is to define your data models first before writing your validation, so you can do this:

data(){
  return {
   name:"",
   email:"",
 }
}

Now you can go ahead and define your validations

validations:{
  name::{
    required,alpha
  },

  email:{
    required,email
   }
}

One last thing you need to do is add validations:{} in your main.js file.
