Starship prompt: conditional directory color based on path prefix

Question

Using the starship prompt, how would I conditionally set the [directory] color based on path prefix?

I was able to achieve it in classic bash prompt, and would like to replicate it with starship.

It would work a bit like the read_only option of [directory] works (adding a lock symbol next to the [directory]).

I managed to do this with custom commands. It is not an ideal solution, but it works.

[custom.directory1]
format = "[directory1](bg:#33658A)[](fg:#33658A)"
shell = 'bash'
when = '[ "$PWD" == "/path/to/directory1" ]'


[custom.directory2]
format = "[directory2](bg:#4c873f)[](fg:#4c873f)"
shell = 'bash'
when = '[ "$PWD" == "/path/to/directory2" ]'
