Ng-condition NPM

NgCondition

An alternative to *ngIf; else directive for simplify conditions into HTML template for Angular application.

Description

Sometime multiple *ngIf; else can make html template ugly and complicated to understand, eg.:

<div *ngIf="number <= 5; else majorOf5">
    Number is minor or equal 5
</div>
<ng-template #majorOf5>
    <div *ngIf="number <= 10; else majorOf10">
        Number is minor or equal 10
    </div>    
    <ng-template #majorOf10>
        <div *ngIf="number <= 20; else majorOf20">
            Number is minor or equal 20
        </div>
        <ng-template #majorOf20>
            Number is major of 20
        </ng-template>
    </ng-template>
</ng-template>

with ng-condition you have a simple if, else if, else block, and the same template become eg.:

<ng-condition>
    <ng-if [condition]="number <= 5">
      Number is minor or equal 5
    </ng-if>
    <ng-else-if [condition]="number <= 10">
      Number is minor or equal 10
    </ng-else-if>
    <ng-else-if [condition]="number <= 20">
      Number is minor or equal 20
    </ng-else-if>
    <ng-else>
      Number is major of 20
    </ng-else>
</ng-condition>

See the stackblitz demo.
