Generic container

A component that uses an expression to conditionally display a template. Functions similar to ng-switch with the significant difference that expressions are supported in the when operators, where ng-switch only allows for primitive values.

Usage

<rl-generic-container selector="">
	<template when-selector=""> ... </template>
	<template default> ... </template>
</rl-generic-container>

Options

selector

An expression that evaluates to a string value representing the template that should be shown. If no match is found, the default is used.

when-selector

Specifies the value that the container should match against to determine if this template should be shown. Unlike ng-switch, interpolation is permitted.

default (default: false)

If specified, the specified template is used if no match is found. In this case, no when-selector need be specified.

Template contents must be surrounded with an html tag to function correctly.

Full example

// myNum = 2
<rl-generic-container selector="myValue">
	<template when-selector="1">Template 1</template>
	<template when-selector="{{myNum}}">Template 2</template>
	<template default>Default</template>
</rl-generic-container>

Output (myValue = 1):

<div id="container"><span>Template 1</span></div>

Output (myValue = 2):

<div id="container"><span>Template 2</span></div>

Output (myValue = 3):

<div id="container"><span>Default</span></div>
