I have some data that is accessible via:
{{ content['term_goes_here'] }}
... and this evaluated to either true or false. I'd like to add a class depending on the truthiness of the expression like so:
<i class="fa" v-bind:class="[{{content['cravings']}} ? 'fa-checkbox-marked' : 'fa-checkbox-blank-outline']"></i>
where true gives me the class fa-checkbox-marked and false would give me fa-checkbox-blank-outline. The way I wrote it above gives me an error:
- invalid expression: v-bind:class="[{{content['cravings']}} ? 'fa-checkbox-marked' : 'fa-checkbox-blank-outline']"
How should I write it to be able to conditionally determine the class?
Use the object syntax.
v-bind:class="{'fa-checkbox-marked': content['cravings'], 'fa-checkbox-blank-outline': !content['cravings']}"
When the object gets more complicated, extract it into a method.
v-bind:class="getClass()"
methods:{
getClass(){
return {
'fa-checkbox-marked': this.content['cravings'],
'fa-checkbox-blank-outline': !this.content['cravings']}
}
}
Finally, you could make this work for any content property like this.
v-bind:class="getClass('cravings')"
methods:{
getClass(property){
return {
'fa-checkbox-marked': this.content[property],
'fa-checkbox-blank-outline': !this.content[property]
}
}
}
<i class="fa" v-bind:class="cravings"></i>
and add in computed :
computed: {
cravings: function() {
return this.content['cravings'] ? 'fa-checkbox-marked' : 'fa-checkbox-blank-outline';
}
}
