Use props in composables vue3

I am upgrading an app from vue 2 to vue 3 and I am having some issues with composables. I’d like to use props in the composable but it doesn’t seem to be working. The code sample is pulled from a working component and works fine when I leave it in the component.

I assume defineProps isn’t supported by composables, but then I am unclear how to handle it. When I pass the src in the parameters it loses its reactivity.

// loadImage.js
import { defineProps, onMounted, ref, watch } from 'vue'

// by convention, composable function names start with "use"
export function useLoadImage() {
  let loadingImage = ref(true)
  let showImage = ref(false)
  const props = defineProps({
    src: String,
  })
  const delayShowImage = () => {
    setTimeout(() => {
      showImage.value = true
    }, 100)
  }
  const loadImage = (src) => {
    let img = new Image()
    img.onload = (e) => {
      loading.value = false
      img.onload = undefined
      img.src = undefined
      img = undefined
      delayShowImage()
    }
    img.src = src
  }
  onMounted(() => {
    if (props.src) {
      loadImage(props.src)
    }
  })
  watch(
    () => props.src,
    (val) => {
      if (val) {
        loadingImage.value = true
        loadImage(val)
      }
    },
  )
  // expose managed state as return value
  return { loadingImage, showImage }
}

>Solution :

According to official docs :

defineProps and defineEmits are compiler macros only usable inside <script setup>

You should pass the props as parameter without destructing them to not loose the reactivity :

export function useLoadImage(props) {
....

}
