VueJS: v-on:click not working on clicking the <button>

I have a Vue app configured by NuxtJS. I have the following template and worker methods that should be called upon clicking the button. But they are not being called.

<template>
    <button class="btn google-login" id="google-login" @click.native="googleLogin">
      <img src="~assets/google-icon.svg" alt />
      Login with Google
    </button>
</template>

<script>
import firebase from "firebase";
export default {
  data() {
    return {
      showPassword: false,
      checkbox1: false
    };
  },
  mounted: function() {
    console.log(firebase.SDK_VERSION);
  },
  methods: {
    googleLogin: function(event) {
      console.log('Reached inside the function');


      let googleProvider = new firebase.auth.GoogleAuthProvider();
      googleProvider.addScope(
        "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/contacts.readonly"
      );
      firebase.auth().useDeviceLanguage();
      console.log(googleProvider);
    }
  }
};
</script>

I have the method inside the methods object. I have tried multiple solutions v-on:click, @click, @click.prevent but none seem to be working

.native event modifier is used with elements when you are trying listen any event happening in the child Component from the root Component.

For example you have a component button-counter, and your parent component need to listen to the click event happening in the button-counter component.

In your case you just neeed to trigger click event using @click="googleLogin"

Sample implementation

new Vue({
  el: "#app",
  name: "MyApp",
  components: {
    'button-counter': {
      data: function () {
        return {
          count: 0
        }
      },
      template: '<button v-on:click="count++">You clicked me {{ count }} times.</button>'
    },
  },
  methods: {
    googleLogin: function (event) {
      console.log('Reached inside the function');
    }
  }
})
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/vue/2.1.4/vue.js"></script>
<div id="app">
  <button class="btn google-login" id="google-login" @click="googleLogin">
    Login with Google
  </button>
  <button-counter @click.native="googleLogin" />
</div>

You need to trigger the click event this way.

@click="googleLogin"
