javascript - Using conditional operators in v-model?

Question

I have a vue component that shows a form populated with items from a selected item to edit. Now I don't want to have to use a second form for creating a new item. At the moment I auto populate and update the item with v-model which obviously updates the object. Am I not able to use conditional operators in this like so?

<form @submit.prevent>
  <div class="field">
    <label class="label">Job Title</label>

    <p class="control">
      <input type="text" class="input" placeholder="Job title" v-model="experiences[editIndex].title ? experiences[editIndex].title : ''" />
    </p>
  </div>
</form>

You can use conditional operators with v-model, but you can't give v-model a string like you're attempting in your example.

I wouldn't use the same form for editing and creating (might be preference). I would make the form its own component and then make two additional form components for editing and creating.

However, if you really want to handle the logic in each input's v-model directive, you would need to give it a variable in the last part of the ternary operator. Something like this:

v-model="experiences[i].title ? experiences[i].title : newExperience.title"
