Add vue directive on condition

You may consider defaulting to true when no value is passed to the directive.

bind(el, binding) {
    if ((! binding.hasOwnProperty('value')) || binding.value) {
        // The user wants the directive to be applied...
    }
}

In your template:

<template>
    <social-share v-sticky> <!-- Will apply the directive -->
    <social-share v-sticky="true"> <!-- Will apply the directive -->
    <social-share v-sticky="false"> <!-- Will NOT apply the directive -->
</template>

I stumbled upon this, however the solution was for V1 and since then they have removed the params from the v-directive. The binding has many values in alternative tho

https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/custom-directive.html#Directive-Hook-Arguments

An alternative solution

// SocialShare.vue
<template>
  <div class="social-share" v-sticky="true">
    <h5>{{ headline }}</h5>
    // your code here.
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import stickyDirective  from '../../directives/sticky';

  export default {
    directives: {
      'sticky': stickyDirective,
    }
}
</script>

and

   // sticky directive

const sticky =  {
  bind(binding) { 
    if (binding.value) {
      console.log('Set to true')
    }
  }

  unbind() {

  },
}

export default sticky

Please keep in mind, that the original question was asked 2016! Thus this is a vue 1.x solution

ok got it working over directive params. And added the condition in the directive itself.

Update

Because requested, here is some example code: The SocialShare.vue is the parent component which has the sticky directive.

As you see, the div with the sticky directive receive a prop sticky which is defined inside the directive.

// SocialShare.vue
<template>
  <div class="social-share" v-sticky :sticky="true">
    <h5>{{ headline }}</h5>
    // your code here.
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import stickyDirective  from '../../directives/sticky';

  export default {
    directives: {
      'sticky': stickyDirective,
    }
}
</script>

Ok now the directive. You can add params to directives itself. Thats why sticky works on a div element.

You simply declare your props in a params array and can then access it over this.params

// sticky directive

const sticky =  {
   params: [
    'sticky'
  ],
  bind() { 
    if (this.params.sticky) {
      console.log('Set to true')
    }
  }

  unbind() {

  },
}

export default sticky
