I use a *ngComponentOutlet
structural directive in order to display a dynamic component. This dynamic component must be displayed based on some conditions .
For example, if a certain route is matched, the component (a search form) should be displayed. Else, it should not be displayed.
I've used the following code:
<ng-container *ngIf="searchComponent">
<ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="searchComponent"></ng-container>
</ng-container>
where:
import {SearchComponent} from '....';
public searchComponent: Type<any> | null;
...
show(): void {
this.searchComponent = SearchComponent;
}
hide(): void {
this.searchComponent = null;
}
This works, but using the code above, when hiding the component, the ngOnDestroy()
from SearchComponent
is never called.
In Angular Documentation ( https://angular.io/api/common/NgComponentOutlet ), I've found that:
NgComponentOutlet requires a component type, if a falsy value is set the view will clear and any existing component will get destroyed.
So, I've tried to use a boolean, like this:
<ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="shouldShow && searchComponent"></ng-container>
and
import {SearchComponent} from '....';
public searchComponent: Type<any> = SearchComponent;
...
show(): void {
this.shouldShow = true;
}
hide(): void {
this.shouldShow = false;
}
This works fine for a Stackblitz demo: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-m4w2tk . But using the code above in my project generates a compiler error:
Type 'false | Type<any>' is not assignable to type 'Type<any>'
I need a clean way to remove this component.

Thanks.
Option 1
You could also set the component ref to null: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-tcbdsh?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts
Template:
<ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="component"></ng-container>
Component:
public component = HelloWorld;
toggleHelloWorld(): void {
if (!this.component) {
this.component = HelloWorld;
} else {
this.component = null;
}
}
Option 2
You can wrap your container in another element and use an *ngIf on it like here: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-ct8xmh?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts
<ng-container *ngIf="show">
<ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="component"></ng-container>
</ng-container>
This looks very much like the code you tried but the component does indeed run the OnDestroy lifecycle hook.
