Newbie question: Input event not firing when prop changes

[Achder]

Hi everybody,

I'm new to vue and need some guidance on a problem I'm facing.
I have prepared a SFC playground link: My playground example

Explanation:
I have a component with an input field that gets its value from an object that is passed as a prop.
Whenever the object changes the value of the input field is updated accordingly.
But the input event does not fire. How can I make this happen?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Achder
@input is specifically for a user directly modifying the field, not for any changes made to the field as a result of something like data changing. You want something like watch (your playground):

watch(() => props.user, () => {
  log();
});
