You can create a custom SingleMountPoint, and put the initialization code in the overriden mount method:

val yourCustomMountPoint = new SingleMountPoint[Boolean](show) {
  override def mount() = {
    super.mount()
    // Your custom initialization code
  }
  override def unmount() = {
    // Your custom clean up code
    super.unmount()
  }
  override def set(newValue: Boolean) = {
    // Your custom handler when `show` get changed
  }
}

// Inject your custom mount point into the rendering process
yourCustomMountPoint.bind
