I'm trying to translate my project into another language. I used angular translate library and provided an external JSON file with the translations. It looks like this:
{
"hello_world": "Hola Mundo"
}
When I'm using it with simple hardcoded strings it works just fine and I get my correct translations:
<p>{{ "hello_world" | translate }}</p>
But how to deal with the ternary operator in code like this?
<button> {{ conditionValue ? 'Show' : 'Hide' }} </button>
How to change those 'Show' and 'Hide' values into a translation filter with Angular Translate? I tried different ways but I got an invalid syntax errors.
Thanks!
I think if you wrap the ternary operator into (), it will work.
<button> {{ ( conditionValue ? 'Show' : 'Hide' ) | translate }} </button>
you may try for this:
here i make username online and offline when you choose soanish, the user online status will change into spnish based on ternary condition.

{{ ( userName ? 'Show' : 'Hide' ) | translate }}
I've just come up with the solution!
For ternary operators we have to use 'translate' directive instead of filter. And it works just fine:
{
"show_value": "Show",
"hide_value": "Hide",
}
<button translate> {{ conditionValue ? "show_value" : "hide_value" }} </button>
If exist prefix
{{ ('massmedias.' + (ctrl.actionType === 'add' ? 'add' : 'rename')) | translate }}
Here is your language JSON file
"CONFIGURATION": {
"NEW_TEMPLATE": "New Template",
"EDIT_TEMPLATE": "Edit Template"
}
CASE-I (With HTML tag)
<button> {{ ( variable === '5' ? 'CONFIGURATION.NEW_TEMPLATE' : 'CONFIGURATION.EDIT_TEMPLATE' ) | translate }} </button>
CASE-II (With some third party attribute)
<p-dialog header="{{(variable === '5' ? 'CONFIGURATION.NEW_TEMPLATE' : 'CONFIGURATION.EDIT_TEMPLATE') | translate}}">
{item.status}
<div className="{item.status !== '' ? 'hide' : ''} pull-right">Content</div>
Why above jsx has no effect? My item.status value is string. But in my DOM I can't see hide class been added.
This is because you have wrapped your ternary operator in " so it is treated as string. Try this instead:
{item.status}
<div class={"pull-right "+(item.status !== '' ? 'hide' : '')}>Content</div>
Beside what #rahul-pratap-singh said, consider using nice, tiny package called classnames - link here so you can use it like:
import classes from 'classnames';
// later on
<div className={classes({
"pull-right": true,
"hide": item.status !== '',
})} />
I think it leads to much cleaner code than joining string.
Or at least use es6 string interpolation - link here
// instead of
"pull-right "+(item.status !== '' ? 'hide' : '')
// with string interpolation
`pull-right ${item.status.length ? '' : 'hide'}`;
What is wrong with my Angular code? I am getting the following error:
Cannot read property 'remove' of undefined at BrowserDomAdapter.removeClass
<ol>
<li *ngClass="{active: step==='step1'}" (click)="step='step1'">Step1</li>
<li *ngClass="{active: step==='step2'}" (click)="step='step2'">Step2</li>
<li *ngClass="{active: step==='step3'}" (click)="step='step3'">Step3</li>
</ol>
Angular version 2+ provides several ways to add classes conditionally:
type one
[class.my_class] = "step === 'step1'"
type two
[ngClass]="{'my_class': step === 'step1'}"
and multiple option:
[ngClass]="{'my_class': step === 'step1', 'my_class2' : step === 'step2' }"
type three
[ngClass]="{1 : 'my_class1', 2 : 'my_class2', 3 : 'my_class4'}[step]"
type four
[ngClass]="step == 'step1' ? 'my_class1' : 'my_class2'"
You can find these examples on the documentation page
[ngClass]=... instead of *ngClass.
* is only for the shorthand syntax for structural directives where you can for example use
<div *ngFor="let item of items">{{item}}</div>
instead of the longer equivalent version
<template ngFor let-item [ngForOf]="items">
<div>{{item}}</div>
</template>

<some-element [ngClass]="'first second'">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="['first', 'second']">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="{'first': true, 'second': true, 'third': false}">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="stringExp|arrayExp|objExp">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="{'class1 class2 class3' : true}">...</some-element>

<!-- toggle the "special" class on/off with a property -->
<div [class.special]="isSpecial">The class binding is special</div>
<!-- binding to `class.special` trumps the class attribute -->
<div class="special"
[class.special]="!isSpecial">This one is not so special</div>
<!-- reset/override all class names with a binding -->
<div class="bad curly special"
[class]="badCurly">Bad curly</div>
Another solution would be using [class.active].
Example :
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li [class.active]="step=='step1'" (click)="step='step1'">Step1</li>
</ol>
That's the normal structure for ngClass is:
[ngClass]="{'classname' : condition}"
So in your case, just use it like this...
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step1'}" (click)="step='step1'">Step1</li>
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step2'}" (click)="step='step2'">Step2</li>
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step3'}" (click)="step='step3'">Step3</li>
</ol>
with the following examples you can use 'IF ELSE'
<p class="{{condition ? 'checkedClass' : 'uncheckedClass'}}">
<p [ngClass]="condition ? 'checkedClass' : 'uncheckedClass'">
<p [ngClass]="[condition ? 'checkedClass' : 'uncheckedClass']">
You can use ngClass to apply the class name both conditionally and not in Angular
For Example
[ngClass]="'someClass'">
Conditional
[ngClass]="{'someClass': property1.isValid}">
Multiple Condition
[ngClass]="{'someClass': property1.isValid && property2.isValid}">
Method expression
[ngClass]="getSomeClass()"
This method will inside of your component
getSomeClass(){
const isValid=this.property1 && this.property2;
return {someClass1:isValid , someClass2:isValid};
}
Angular provides multiple ways to add classes conditionally:
First way
active is your class name
[class.active]="step === 'step1'"
Second way
active is your class name
[ngClass]="{'active': step=='step1'}"
Third way
by using ternary operator class1 and class2 is your class name
[ngClass]="(step=='step1')?'class1':'class2'"
You should use something ([ngClass] instead of *ngClass) like that:
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li [ngClass]="{active: step==='step1'}" (click)="step='step1; '">Step1</li>
(...)
In Angular 7.X
The CSS classes are updated as follows, depending on the type of the expression evaluation:
string - the CSS classes listed in the string (space delimited) are added
Array - the CSS classes declared as Array elements are added
Object - keys are CSS classes that get added when the expression given in the value evaluates to a truthy value, otherwise they are removed.
<some-element [ngClass]="'first second'">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="['first', 'second']">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="{'first': true, 'second': true, 'third': false}">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="stringExp|arrayExp|objExp">...</some-element>
<some-element [ngClass]="{'class1 class2 class3' : true}">...</some-element>
Additionally, you can add with method function:
In HTML
<div [ngClass]="setClasses()">...</div>
In component.ts
// Set Dynamic Classes
setClasses() {
let classes = {
constantClass: true,
'conditional-class': this.item.id === 1
}
return classes;
}
to extend MostafaMashayekhi his answer for option two>
you can also chain multiple options with a ','
[ngClass]="{'my-class': step=='step1', 'my-class2':step=='step2' }"
Also *ngIf can be used in some of these situations usually combined with a *ngFor
class="mats p" *ngIf="mat=='painted'"
You can use [ngClass] or [class.classname], both will work the same.
[class.my-class]="step==='step1'"
OR
[ngClass]="{'my-class': step=='step1'}"
Both will work the same!
While I was creating a reactive form, I had to assign 2 types of class on the button. This is how I did it:
<button type="submit" class="btn" [ngClass]="(formGroup.valid)?'btn-info':''"
[disabled]="!formGroup.valid">Sign in</button>
When the form is valid, button has btn and btn-class (from bootstrap), otherwise just btn class.
We can make class dynamic by using following syntax. In Angular 2 plus, you can do this in various ways:
[ngClass]="{'active': arrayData.length && arrayData[0]?.booleanProperty}"
[ngClass]="{'active': step}"
[ngClass]="step== 'step1'?'active':''"
[ngClass]="step? 'active' : ''"
Let, YourCondition is your condition or a boolean property, then do like this
[class.yourClass]="YourCondition"
The directive operates in three different ways, depending on which of three types the expression evaluates to:
If the expression evaluates to a string, the string should be one or more space-delimited class names.
If the expression evaluates to an object, then for each key-value pair of the object with a truthy value the corresponding key is used as a class name.
If the expression evaluates to an array, each element of the array should either be a string as in type 1 or an object as in type 2. This means that you can mix strings and objects together in an array to give you more control over what CSS classes appear. See the code below for an example of this.
[class.class_one] = "step === 'step1'"
[ngClass]="{'class_one': step === 'step1'}"
For multiple options:
[ngClass]="{'class_one': step === 'step1', 'class_two' : step === 'step2' }"
[ngClass]="{1 : 'class_one', 2 : 'class_two', 3 : 'class_three'}[step]"
[ngClass]="step == 'step1' ? 'class_one' : 'class_two'"
ngClass syntax:
[ngClass]="{'classname' : conditionFlag}"
You can use like this:
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step1'}" (click)="step='step1'">Step1</li>
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step2'}" (click)="step='step2'">Step2</li>
<li [ngClass]="{'active': step==='step3'}" (click)="step='step3'">Step3</li>
</ol>
This is what worked for me:
[ngClass]="{'active': dashboardComponent.selected_menu == 'profile'}"
For elseif statement (less comparison) use like that: (For example you compare three statement)
<div [ngClass]="step === 'step1' ? 'class1' : (step === 'step2' ? 'class2' : 'class3')"> {{step}} </div>
Not relevant with [ngClass] directive but I was also getting the same error as
Cannot read property 'remove' of undefined at...
and I thought to be the error in my [ngClass] condition but it turned out the property I was trying to access in the condition of [ngClass] was not initialized.
Like I had this in my typescript file
element: {type: string};
and In my [ngClass] I was using
[ngClass]="{'active', element.type === 'active'}"
and I was getting the error
Cannot read property 'type' of undefined at...
and the solution was to fix my property to
element: {type: string} = {type: 'active'};
Hope it helps somebody who is trying to match a condition of a property in [ngClass]
<div class="collapse in " [ngClass]="(active_tab=='assignservice' || active_tab=='manage')?'show':''" id="collapseExampleOrganization" aria-expanded="true" style="">
<ul> <li class="nav-item" [ngClass]="{'active': active_tab=='manage'}">
<a routerLink="/main/organization/manage" (click)="activemenu('manage')"> <i class="la la-building-o"></i>
<p>Manage</p></a></li>
<li class="nav-item" [ngClass]="{'active': active_tab=='assignservice'}"><a routerLink="/main/organization/assignservice" (click)="activemenu('assignservice')"><i class="la la-user"></i><p>Add organization</p></a></li>
</ul></div>
Code is good example of ngClass if else condition.
[ngClass]="(active_tab=='assignservice' || active_tab=='manage')?'show':''"
[ngClass]="{'active': active_tab=='assignservice'}"
Try Like this..
Define your class with ''
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li *ngClass="{'active': step==='step1'}" (click)="step='step1; '">Step1</li>
<li *ngClass="{'active': step==='step2'}" (click)="step='step2'">Step2</li>
<li *ngClass="{'active': step==='step3'}" (click)="step='step3'">Step3</li>
</ol>
The example is a bit big, but triggering a class instead of typing inline is my first preferred approach.
this way you can add as many possibilities as you want to your element.
There may be a way for those who want to bind more than one [ngClass] to a single element.
<span class="inline-flex items-center font-medium" [ngClass]="addClass">{{ badge.text }}</span>
import { ChangeDetectionStrategy, Component, Input } from '#angular/core';
type Badge = {
size?: 'basic' | 'large';
shape?: 'basic' | 'rounded';
color?: 'gray' | 'red' | 'yellow' | 'green' | 'blue' | 'indigo' | 'purple' | 'pink';
dot?: boolean;
removeButton?: false;
text?: string;
}
#Component({
selector: 'bio-badge',
templateUrl: './badge.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./badge.component.scss'],
changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
})
export class BioBadgeComponent {
#Input() badge!: Badge;
get addClass() {
return {
'px-2.5 py-0.5 text-sx': this.badge.size === 'basic',
'px-3 py-0.5 text-sm': this.badge.size === 'large',
'rounded-full': this.badge.shape === 'basic',
'rounded': this.badge.shape === 'rounded',
'bg-gray-100 text-gray-800': this.badge.color === 'gray',
'bg-red-100 text-red-800': this.badge.color === 'red',
'bg-yellow-100 text-yellow-800': this.badge.color === 'yellow',
'bg-green-100 text-green-800': this.badge.color === 'green',
'bg-blue-100 text-blue-800': this.badge.color === 'blue',
'bg-indigo-100 text-indigo-800': this.badge.color === 'indigo',
'bg-purple-100 text-purple-800': this.badge.color === 'purple',
'bg-pink-100 text-pink-800': this.badge.color === 'pink',
}
}
}
If user want to display the class on basis of && and ||
then below one is work for me
[ngClass]="{'clasname_1': condition_1 && condition_2, 'classname_2': condition_1 && condition2, 'classname_3': condition}"
Example:
[ngClass]="{'approval-panel-mat-drawer-side-left': similar_toil_mode==='side' && showsTheSimilarToilsWithCloseIcon, 'approval-panel-mat-drawer-side-right': similar_toil_mode==='side' && !showsTheSimilarToilsWithCloseIcon, 'approval-panel-mat-drawer-over': similar_toil_mode==='over'}"
