using rootGetters

According to official documention https://vuex.vuejs.org/en/api.html we can pass rootGetters as 4th parameter in our function:

pages: (state, getters, rootState, rootGetters) => {
               //here we can access all other modules 
              // using rootGetters.moduleName
}

and for namespaced we can access using

rootGetters["moduleName/getter"]
// for example
rootGetters["users/link"]

using getters and actions

// using with getters
getters: {
    someGetter (state, getters, rootState, rootGetters) {
        // rootGetters.getterName
        // rootGetters['namesapce/getterName'] 
    }
}

// using with actions
actions: {
  actionName ({ dispatch, commit, getters, rootGetters }) {
  
    rootGetters.getterName 
    rootGetters['foo/bar'] 

    dispatch('foobar') 
    dispatch('lorem', null, { root: true }) 

    commit('ipsuum')
