Lets say you have an array that is rendered in a ul
with an li
for each element and a property on the controller called selectedIndex
.
We can make a function to manage return class with condition
<script>
angular.module('myapp', [])
.controller('ExampleController', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
$scope.MyColors = ['It is Red', 'It is Yellow', 'It is Blue', 'It is Green', 'It is Gray'];
$scope.getClass = function (strValue) {
switch(strValue) {
case "It is Red":return "Red";break;
case "It is Yellow":return "Yellow";break;
case "It is Blue":return "Blue";break;
case "It is Green":return "Green";break;
case "It is Gray":return "Gray";break;
}
}
}]);
</script>
And then
<body ng-app="myapp" ng-controller="ExampleController">
<h2>AngularJS ng-class if example</h2>
<ul >
<li ng-repeat="icolor in MyColors" >
<p ng-class="[getClass(icolor), 'b']">{{icolor}}</p>
</li>
</ul>
<hr/>
<p>Other way using : ng-class="{'class1' : expression1, 'class2' : expression2,'class3':expression2,...}"</p>
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="icolor in MyColors">
<p ng-class="{'Red':icolor=='It is Red','Yellow':icolor=='It is Yellow','Blue':icolor=='It is Blue','Green':icolor=='It is Green','Gray':icolor=='It is Gray'}" class="b">{{icolor}}</p>
</li>
</ul>

If you don't want to put CSS class names into Controller like I do, here is an old trick that I use since pre-v1 days. We can write an expression that evaluates directly to a class name selected, no custom directives are necessary:
ng:class="{true:'selected', false:''}[$index==selectedIndex]"
Please note the old syntax with colon.
There is also a new better way of applying classes conditionally, like:
ng-class="{selected: $index==selectedIndex}"
Angular now supports expressions that return an object. Each property (name) of this object is now considered as a class name and is applied depending on its value.
However these ways are not functionally equal. Here is an example:
ng-class="{admin:'enabled', moderator:'disabled', '':'hidden'}[user.role]"
We could therefore reuse existing CSS classes by basically mapping a model property to a class name and at the same time keep CSS classes out of Controller code.
ng-class supports an expression that must evaluate to either
So, using form 3) we can simply write
ng-class="{'selected': $index==selectedIndex}"
See also How do I conditionally apply CSS styles in AngularJS? for a broader answer.
Update: Angular 1.1.5 has added support for a ternary operator, so if that construct is more familiar to you:
ng-class="($index==selectedIndex) ? 'selected' : ''"
<div class="col-md-4 text-right">
<a ng-class="campaign_range === 'thismonth' ? 'btn btn-blue' : 'btn btn-link'" href="#" ng-click='change_range("thismonth")'>This Month</a>
<a ng-class="campaign_range === 'all' ? 'btn btn-blue' : 'btn btn-link'" href="#" ng-click='change_range("all")'>All Time</a>
</div>
$scope.campaign_range = "all";
$scope.change_range = function(range) {
if (range === "all")
{
$scope.campaign_range = "all"
}
else
{
$scope.campaign_range = "thismonth"
}
};
If you are using angular pre v1.1.5 (i.e. no ternary operator) and you still want an equivalent way to set a value in both conditions you can do something like this:
ng-class="{'class1':item.isReadOnly == false, 'class2':item.isReadOnly == true}"
well i would suggest you to check condition in your controller with a function returning true or false .
<div class="week-wrap" ng-class="{today: getTodayForHighLight(todayDate, day.date)}">{{day.date}}</div>
and in your controller check the condition
$scope.getTodayForHighLight = function(today, date){
return (today == date);
}
