Vue method changing data used as v-if










0















So what I want to achieve is use a v-if calling a method and inside the method change a property inside data, once this is done then return true so the element is displayed.



Example:






export default 
data()
return
lastMonths: [

month: '11',
monthNumber: moment().format('MM'),
printed: false
,

month: '10',
monthNumber: moment().subtract(1, 'months').format('MM'),
printed: false
,

month: '9',
monthNumber: moment().subtract(2, 'months').format('MM'),
printed: false

]

,
methods:
displayOptgroup(index, month)
if (!this.lastMonths[index].printed && (this.lastMonths[index].monthNumber == month))
this.lastMonths[index].printed = true;
return true;


return false;
,


<div>
<span class="optgroup" v-if="displayOptgroup(0, option.month)"> lastMonths[0].month </span>
</div>





But nothing appears, but as soon as I comment the line where I set printed = true, then it works!



I can't understand why this is happening. I tried with computed properties itself, computed properties calling method and mutating there, but with the same result.



Thanks.
