aframe-state component to attach/detach components

I am trying to attach/detach components to entity based on certain conditions.



For example, I want to be able to track two conditions -




  1. A player has clicked on play button and

  2. The time count down is not yet zero


before I attach a component to an entity.



I looked at the following component from Kevin - https://github.com/ngokevin/kframe/tree/master/components/state/



where there is an example on attaching/detaching components based on boolean value. Here is an extract from his documentation




There's a bind-toggle component which will attach and detach a
component entirely based on a boolean value.




<a-entity bind-toggle__raycastable="isRaycastable"></a-entity>


But, it's not clear where that boolean value is being set before the raycastable component gets attached to the entity.



I am looking for a solution where I can write the entity as follows



<a-entity bind-toggle__move="condition1 && condition2"></a-entity>


where the component "move" gets attached to the entity when condition 1 (play button is clicked) and condition 2( time count down is not zero) are satisfied. I need to know where to set the values for condition1 and condition2.



If you could please provide a working example for this then that would be great.



I can attach a codepen if that would make it easier to understand.

          Have two events: buttonclicked, and countdownzero emitted to the scene in the respective components.



          Then in the state:



          buttonclicked: function (state) {
          state.buttonClicked = true;
          },

          countdownzero: function (state) {
          state.countdownFinished = true;
          }


          Then can do bind-toggle__move="buttonClicked && countdownFinished. Let me know if you want clarification!

          • One question though Kevin, how do I declare a value for state.buttonClicked as false in the state and only switch it to true when buttonClicked event gets fired? Do I need to write another event handler such as buttonNotClicked which will have state.buttonClicked = false;?
