Conditional button color attr in Angular Material (Components)

Question

I have a component that takes an Input.. @Input() coDeliveryCandidates: DeliverySlotView[];

this is used in the template:

<ng-container *ngFor="let coDeliverySlotView of (coDeliveryCandidates | async)">
  <button
    mat-raised-button
    [color]=""
  >
    {{ label  }}
  </button>
</ng-container>

color attribute takes a string as value and I would like to do something like:

[color]="{
  black: coDeliverySlotView.slotId === bookedSlot.slotId,
  grey: !coDeliverySlotView.slotId === bookedSlot.slotId
}"

Here I use the same syntax as ngClass but I guess it's not supported in that way.. so what other similar ways are there? :)

Can just use the ternary operator

[color]="coDeliverySlotView.slotId === bookedSlot.slotId ? 'black' : 'grey'"

angular material has some preset color like *primary,accent,warn* that why 'black' , 'gray' will not work ,you are correct in case this was a preset – Muhammed Albarmavi Sep 17 '19 at 11:56

<button mat-button [color]=" boolean_condition ? 'accent' : 'primary'">

This is a possible easy example using the color of material.

material design has built in three color called primary,accent,warn and base of the value you pass to color will set the need class , in this case the easy way to change the color is defined a class without set the color property

style.scss

.black {
  &.mat-raised-button.mat-button-base {
    background: black ;
    color:#fff ;
  }
}

.gray {
  &.mat-raised-button.mat-button-base {
    background: #ccc ;
    color:#555 ;
  }
}
.orange {
  &.mat-raised-button.mat-button-base {
    background: orange ;
    color:#fff ;
  }
}

template

<button mat-raised-button class="black">black</button>
<button mat-raised-button class="gray">gray</button>
<button mat-raised-button class="orange">orange</button>

set the class base of condition by ngClass directive and boolean property like this

 <button mat-raised-button 
        [ngClass]="{'black': isBlack , 'gray' : !isBlack}" (click)="isBlack =!isBlack" >
        click to toggle
 </button>

We already have our own theme and the colors are present.. the question was simple about conditional... — Mackelito, Sep 17 '19 at 20:51

Component

isActive = false;

html

<input type="checkbox" [(ngModel)]="isActive">    

<button mat-raised-button [color]="isActive ? 'warn' : 'warn'">
        {{isActive ? 'warn' : 'warn'}}
</button>
