Disabled properties based on component prop in v-for

Question

Let's say I have this:

<v-btn v-for="action in actions" :key="action.icon" :disabled="action.disabled" icon
       @click="action.click(item.id)">
  <v-icon>{{ action.icon }}</v-icon>
</v-btn>

The action is defined as follows:

export default {
  props: {
    rowEditingDisabled: Boolean,
  },
  data() {
    return {
      actions: [
        {icon: 'mdi-pencil', disabled: this.rowEditingDisabled, click: this.edit},
      ],
    };
  },
};

How can I update the disabled property when the component property "rowEditingDisabled" is updated?

Here is a snippet showing what I mean:

Vue.component('child', {
  template: `
    <div>
      <v-btn :disabled="rowEditingDisabled">This works!</v-btn>
      <v-btn v-for="action in actions" :key="action.icon" :disabled="action.disabled" icon
         @click="action.click(item.id)">
        <v-icon>{{ action.icon }}</v-icon>
      </v-btn>
    </div>`,
  props: {
    rowEditingDisabled: Boolean,
  },
  data() {
    return {
      actions: [
        {icon: 'mdi-pencil', disabled: this.rowEditingDisabled, click: this.edit},
      ],
    };
  },
})
new Vue({
  el: '#app',
  vuetify: new Vuetify(),
  data() {
    return {
      isDisabled: true
    };
  },
  created() {
    setInterval(() => {
      this.isDisabled = !this.isDisabled;
    }, 1000);
  },
})

<div id="app">

    <v-main>
      <v-container>
        <child :row-editing-disabled="isDisabled"></child>
      </v-container>
    </v-main>
  </v-app>
</div>

It works when I just use the prop, but when I put it into an array it doesn't work anymore.

Make sure you observe the changes in props like this:

export default {
    props: { rowEditingDisabled: Boolean, },
    data() {
        return {
            actions: [{
                icon: 'mdi-pencil',
                disabled: false, 
                click: this.edit
            }], 
        }; 
    },
    watch: { 
        rowEditingDisabled: function(newVal, oldVal) { 
            // watch it
            console.log('Prop changed: ', newVal, ' | was: ', oldVal);
            this.actions[0].disabled = newVal;
        }
    },
};
