ComputedProperty

computed property which creates a one way computed property to the original value for property.

Where the alias computed macro aliases get and set, and allows for bidirectional data flow, the oneWay computed macro only provides an aliased get. The set will not mutate the upstream property, rather causes the current property to become the value set. This causes the downstream property to permanently diverge from the upstream property.

Example:

import { set } from '@ember/object';
import { oneWay }from '@ember/object/computed';

class User {
  constructor(firstName, lastName) {
    set(this, 'firstName', firstName);
    set(this, 'lastName', lastName);
  }

  @oneWay('firstName') nickName;
}

let teddy = new User('Teddy', 'Zeenny');

teddy.nickName; // 'Teddy'

set(teddy, 'nickName', 'TeddyBear');
teddy.firstName; // 'Teddy'
teddy.nickName; // 'TeddyBear'
