watchIgnorable

v0.0.15testeddemo

Extended `watch` that exposes `ignoreUpdates(fn)` and `ignorePrevAsyncUpdates()` to suppress reactions to programmatic writes.

Example

ts
const count = ref(0);
const { ignoreUpdates } = watchIgnorable(count, value => console.log('changed', value));

count.value = 1;            // logs: changed 1
ignoreUpdates(() => {
  count.value = 2;          // does NOT log
});
count.value = 3;            // logs: changed 3
