I am new to VueJS and after reading this doc section and this question, I can't figure how to change dynamically the prop active|positive|intermediary|negative and pulse of the following component (it could be another): vue-status-indicator
eg: with user.status = positive and the following wrong code :
<span v-for="user in users" :key="user.id">
<status-indicator {{ user.status }}></status-indicator>
</span>
What is the correct syntax to set theses type of props ?
You could do something like this.. I had to write a wrapper for it to make it functional..
Edit To be clear - you cannot interpolate inside an attribute.. This has to do with boolean attributes in Vue..
This:
<status-indicator active pulse />
...is the same exact thing as doing this:
<status-indicator :active="true" :pulse="true" />
The "wrapper" component I wrote allows you to supply a string to set the status (like you are wanting to do):
<v-indicator status="active" pulse></v-indicator>
<!-- OR -->
<v-indicator status="positive" pulse></v-indicator>
<!-- OR -->
<v-indicator status="intermediary" pulse></v-indicator>
<!-- OR -->
<v-indicator status="negative" pulse></v-indicator>
Here is the full "wrapper" component, in .vue format: (added a validator for the 'status' prop)
<template>
<status-indicator
:active="indicatorStatus.active"
:positive="indicatorStatus.positive"
:intermediary="indicatorStatus.intermediary"
:negative="indicatorStatus.negative"
:pulse="pulse"
></status-indicator>
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: {
status: {
type: String,
required: true,
validator: (prop) => [
'active',
'positive',
'intermediary',
'negative',
].includes(prop)
},
pulse: {
type: Boolean,
required: false,
default: false,
},
},
data() {
return {
indicatorStatus: {
active: false,
positive: false,
intermediary: false,
negative: false,
}
}
},
watch: {
status() {
this.handleStatusChange(this.status);
}
},
methods: {
handleStatusChange(newStatus) {
Object.keys(this.indicatorStatus).forEach(v => this.indicatorStatus[v] = false);
this.indicatorStatus[newStatus] = true;
}
},
mounted() {
this.handleStatusChange(this.status);
}
}
</script>
Snippet:
const vIndicator = {
template: "#v-indicator",
props: {
status: {
type: String,
required: true,
validator: (prop) => [
'active',
'positive',
'intermediary',
'negative',
].includes(prop)
},
pulse: {
type: Boolean,
required: false,
},
},
data() {
return {
indicatorStatus: {
active: false,
positive: false,
intermediary: false,
negative: false,
}
}
},
watch: {
status() {
this.handleStatusChange(this.status);
}
},
methods: {
handleStatusChange(newStatus) {
Object.keys(this.indicatorStatus).forEach(v => this.indicatorStatus[v] = false);
this.indicatorStatus[newStatus] = true;
}
},
mounted() {
this.handleStatusChange(this.status);
}
}
new Vue({
el: '#app',
components: {
vIndicator
},
data: {
currentStatus: '',
isPulse: '',
},
computed: {
currentJson() {
let cj = {
currentStatus: this.currentStatus,
isPulse: this.isPulse,
};
return JSON.stringify(cj, null, 2);
}
},
mounted() {
let statuses = ["active", "positive", "intermediary","negative"];
let c = 0;
let t = 0;
this.currentStatus = statuses[c];
this.isPulse = true;
setInterval(() => {
t = c + 1 > 3 ? t + 1 : t;
c = c + 1 > 3 ? 0 : c + 1;
this.currentStatus = statuses[c];
this.isPulse = (t % 2 == 0) ? true : false;
}, 2000)
}
