Example usage of SegmentedBar? Having trouble with the component rendering improperly with bound items property

[NathanWalker]

I'm having trouble getting a Segmented Bar to render properly when bound to a property in an angular component class.

<SegmentedBar items="{{supportedLanguages}}"></SegmentedBar>

...
export class LangSwitcherCmp {
  public supportedLanguages: Array<any> = [
    { code: 'en', title: 'English' },
    { code: 'es', title: 'Spanish' },
    { code: 'fr', title: 'French' },
    { code: 'ru', title: 'Russian' },
    { code: 'bg', title: 'Bulgarian' }
  ];
}

It ends up rendering like this... (am I missing something?):

This is using the following dependencies btw:

"angular2": "2.0.0-beta.3",
"nativescript-angular": "0.0.31",
"parse5": "1.4.2",
"punycode": "1.3.2",
"querystring": "0.2.0",
"reflect-metadata": "0.1.2",
"rxjs": "5.0.0-beta.0",
"tns-core-modules": "1.6.0-angular-5",
"zone.js": "0.5.11"

Which is the latest of what is being used here:

I tried this binding:

<SegmentedBar [items]="supportedLanguages"></SegmentedBar>

and it worked just fine. I think the moustache binding is meant to be used only for HTML text nodes (it returns a string value, which won't work with the segmented bar). Since NativeScript has no text nodes, I'd advise against using those bindings.

Ah yes of course thanks!!!

I'm having trouble getting the SegmentedBar to render with a static list of items in markup. If I have...

<SegmentedBar row="1" colspan="3" class="toggles" (selectedIndexChanged)="filter()" selectedBackgroundColor="#B76769">
  <SegmentedBar.items>
    <SegmentedBarItem title="All"></SegmentedBarItem>
    <SegmentedBarItem title="Active" completed="false"></SegmentedBarItem>
    <SegmentedBarItem title="Done" completed="true"></SegmentedBarItem>
  </SegmentedBar.items>
</SegmentedBar>

...shouldn't that display a SegmentedBar? Is there a way to do it differently in Angular 2?

[hdeshev]

This syntax (binding) will work for sure:

<SegmentedBar row="1" colspan="3" class="toggles"
  (selectedIndexChanged)="filter()" selectedBackgroundColor="#B76769"
  [items]="[{title: 'All'}, {title: 'Active'}]">
</SegmentedBar>

I opened a new issue related to supporting child <SegmentedBarItem> tags.
