# v-show-case

Vue 3 components for implementing conditional logic when using the v-show directive.

---

## Install

```bash
npm install --save v-show-case
```

## Setup

```js
import { createApp } from "vue";
import App from "./App.vue";

import { vShowCase } from "v-show-case";

const app = createApp(App);
app.use(vShowCase);
app.mount("#app");
```

## Usage

The following template will show the second paragraph as it is the first element with truthy argument for the `v-show-when` directive. The `v-show-else` is optional and is used for fallback content when all other conditions are falsy, similar to `v-else`.

```vue
<template>
    <v-show-case>
        <p v-show-when="x">1</p>

        <!-- displayed -->
        <p v-show-when="true">2</p>

        <p v-show-when="false">3</p>

        <p v-show-else>4</p>
    </v-show-case>
</template>

<script>
export default {
    data() {
        return {
            x: false,
        };
    },
};
</script>
```

## Compile time validation

The `v-show-case` component must have at least one child with the `v-show-when` directive applied, followed by any number of `v-show-when`, and an optional `v-show-else` directive, which mush be present at last if used. This strucure can be checked at compile time by configuring the build tool to apply a transformer function during template compilation; though it does require a dynamic import in the vite config file.

**Example vite configuration:**

```js
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import vue from "@vitejs/plugin-vue";
import { validateVShowCase } from "v-show-case";

export default (async function () {
    const { validateVShowCase } = await import("v-show-case");

    // https://vitejs.dev/config/
    return defineConfig({
        plugins: [
            vue({
                template: {
                    compilerOptions: {
                        nodeTransforms: [validateVShowCase],
                    },
                },
            }),
        ],
        ...
    });
})();
```
