How to Use ngFor for Dynamic Event Names in Angular with ag-grid

In the world of web development with Angular, creating dynamic interfaces efficiently is often a necessity. A common challenge developers face is how to handle dynamic event names, especially when working with components like ag-grid. If you've ever tried to bind multiple grids and give them distinct event handlers based on their index, only to hit a wall, you're not alone. In this post, we'll break down how to effectively use Angular's ngFor directive to assign dynamic event names to your components.

The Problem: Dynamic Event Handling

When you create multiple instances of a component like ag-grid within an ngFor loop, you might find yourself in a situation where you want to assign unique event handlers for each instance. The goal is to have each grid listen for an event (like gridReady) and execute a corresponding function that is specific to that grid.

For example, your initial attempt might involve trying to construct event names dynamically using expressions or concatenation within your HTML template. Here’s a snippet to illustrate the struggle:

The above won’t work as one might hope, leading to confusion and frustration.

The Solution: Clear Dynamic Binding

The good news is there's a simple way to achieve this functionality. Instead of trying to concatenate strings for your event handler names, you can directly pass the index to a single method along with the event parameters.

Step-by-Step Breakdown

Modify Your Template: Update the template code to clearly reference a single method that can take the index and event parameters. Here’s how you can do it:

Create a Unified Event Handler: Define the onGridReady method in your TypeScript component file. This method should accept both the index of the grid and the event parameters:

Why This Approach Works

Cleaner Code: By using a single method with parameters, you simplify your template code and enhance readability.

Easier Maintenance: When you use one method for all instances, you can easily manage the logic in one place, rather than juggling multiple event handlers.

Dynamic Flexibility: You gain the ability to tailor the behavior of each grid instance uniquely based on the provided index.

Conclusion

Handling dynamic event names in Angular when using ngFor can initially seem complex, but with this structured approach, you'll find it much more manageable. By passing both the index and the event parameters to a single method, you achieve dynamic behavior with clear and minimal code. Now you can confidently build more robust and flexible Angular applications using ag-grid!
