+# watchTriggerable
+
+Watch that can be triggered manually
+
+## Usage
+
+A `watch` wrapper that supports manual triggering of `WatchCallback`, which returns an additional `trigger` to execute a `WatchCallback` immediately.
+
+```ts
+import { watchTriggerable } from '@vueuse/core'
+import { nextTick, ref } from 'vue'
+
+const source = ref(0)
+
+const { trigger, ignoreUpdates } = watchTriggerable(
+  source,
+  v => console.log(`Changed to ${v}!`),
+)
+
+source.value = 'bar'
+await nextTick() // logs: Changed to bar!
+
+// Execution of WatchCallback via `trigger` does not require waiting
+trigger() // logs: Changed to bar!
+```
+
+### `onCleanup`
+When you want to manually call a `watch` that uses the onCleanup parameter; simply taking the `WatchCallback` out and calling it doesn't make it easy to implement the `onCleanup` parameter.
+
+Using `watchTriggerable` will solve this problem.
+```ts
+import { watchTriggerable } from '@vueuse/core'
+import { ref } from 'vue'
+
+const source = ref(0)
+
+const { trigger } = watchTriggerable(
+  source,
+  async (v, _, onCleanup) => {
+    let canceled = false
+    onCleanup(() => canceled = true)
+
+    await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, 500))
+    if (canceled)
+      return
+
+    console.log(`The value is "${v}"\n`)
+  },
+)
+
+source.value = 1 // no log
+await trigger() // logs (after 500 ms): The value is "1"
+```
