Combo Templates

Custom templates for different areas of the igx-combo component can be defined, including items, header, footer, empty list and adding button.

Demo

Usage

To get started with the Ignite UI for Angular Combo import the IgxComboModule in the app.module.ts file:

// app.module.ts

...
import { IgxComboModule } from 'igniteui-angular';

@NgModule({
    ...
    imports: [..., IgxComboModule],
    ...
})
export class AppModule {}

Defining templates for item, header, footer and empty one is achieved using predefined reference names (see the topic below for detailed information):

<igx-combo #templateCombo [data]="lData" [valueKey]="'field'" >

    <ng-template igxComboItem let-display let-key="valueKey">
        <div class="item">
            <span class="state">{{ display[key] }} - </span>
            <span class="region">{{ display.region }}</span>
        </div>
    </ng-template>

    <ng-template igxComboHeader>
        <div class="header-class">State - Region</div>
    </ng-template>

    <ng-template igxComboFooter>
        <div class="footer-class">Infragistics 2018</div>
    </ng-template>

    <igx-combo>
        <ng-template igxComboEmpty>
            <span class="empty-class">No available states</span>
        </ng-template>
    </igx-combo>
</igx-combo>

Template types

When defining one of the templates below, you need to reference them using the following predefined names:

Item template

Use selector [igxComboItem]:

<igx-combo>
 <ng-template igxComboItem let-display let-key="valueKey">
  <div class="item">
   <span class="state">State: {{ display[key] }}</span>
   <span class="region">Region: {{ display.region }}</span>
  </div>
 </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Header template

Use selector [igxComboHeader]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboHeader>
        <div class="header-class">Custom header</div>
        <img src/>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Footer template

Use selector [igxComboFooter]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboFooter>
        <div class="footer-class">Custom footer</div>
        <img src/>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Empty template

Use selector [igxComboEmpty]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboEmpty>
        <span>List is empty</div>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Add template

Use selector [igxComboAddItem]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboAddItem>
        <span>Add town</span>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Toggle Icon Template

Use selector [igxComboToggleIcon]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboToggleIcon let-collapsed>
        <igx-icon>{{ collapsed ? 'remove_circle' : 'remove_circle_outline'}}</igx-icon>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Clear Icon Template

Use selector [igxComboClearIcon]:

<igx-combo>
    <ng-template igxComboClearIcon>
        <igx-icon>music_off</igx-icon>
    </ng-template>
</igx-combo>

Templating combo input

The above-mentioned selectors, [igxComboClearIcon] and [igxComboToggleIcon], used with templates will change how the respective buttons appear in the combo input. Passing content inside of the igx-combo also allows templating of the combo input similar to the way an igx-input-group can be templated (using igx-prefix, igx-suffix and [igxLabel]). The code snippet below illustrates how to add an appropriate label and igx-prefix to the combo input, as well as changing the clear button icon:

    <igx-combo [data]="myMusic">
        ...
        <label igxLabel>Genres</label>
        <igx-prefix><igx-icon>music_note</igx-icon></igx-prefix>
        <ng-template igxComboClearIcon>
            <igx-icon>music_off</igx-icon>
        </ng-template>
        ...
    </igx-combo>
