Parser Error: Got interpolation ({{}}) where expression was expected

Question

I'm using ng-bootstrap as a substitute for ui-bootstrap in angular2.

My html is as follows:

<ul class="list-inline">
    <li class="tag" ngb-dropdown auto-close="outsideClick" 
        *ngFor="let item of ['Elastic Search','Database Theory','CVS'];
        let $index=index;" 
        [ngClass]="{'default-tag': $index==0, 'matched-tag': $index==1, 'unmatched-tag': $index==2 }">
         <a href ngb-dropdown-toggle id="desiredSkill{{$index}}">
             <i class="bi_interface-tick following"></i> {{item}} <i class="bi_interface-more tag-menu-icon"></i>
                            </a>
               <ul class="dropdown-menu tag-menu" ngb-dropdown-menu [aria-labelledby]="desiredSkill{{$index}}">
                     <li><a href>Follow Skill</a></li>
                     <li><a href>Related Jobs</a></li>
                </ul>
     </li>
  </ul>

But when I run my app I get following error:

main.browser.ts:25Error: Template parse errors: Parser Error: Got interpolation ({{}}) where expression was expected at column 12 in [desiredSkill{{$index}}] in JobDescription@174:77 (" ][aria-labelledby]="desiredSkill{{$index}}">

Answer 1

You can't use interpolation inside standart property binding. There should be expression.

Seems it should be:

[attr.aria-labelledby]="'desiredSkill' + $index"

or

attr.aria-labelledby="desiredSkill{{$index}}"

Answer 2

Usually this error occurs when we are trying to implement both Interpolation and Property data binding on the same html property.

Example:

Wrong implementation

[disabled]= {{isDisabled}}

Correct implementation

disabled= {{isDisabled}}

Note: remove the square bracket from the html element property

Answer 3

I think you forgot to declare index of ngFor

*ngFor="let item of ['Elastic Search','Database Theory','CVS'];let $index=index" ...

also use,

[attr.aria-labelledby]="desiredSkill{{$index}}"

Answer 4

Use this

  <button class="btn btn-primary" title="Edit" (click)="showEditModal(record.id)"><i class="fa fa-edit"></i></button>

Answer 5

In link tags use like this

Use this

<a  class="custom-badge status-blue" [routerLink]="'/hospital/doctorleave/'+item.Id]">Manage Leave</a> 

Instead of

<a  class="custom-badge status-blue" [routerLink]="'/hospital/doctorleave/{{item.Id}}']">Manage Leave</a> 

Answer 6

If you want pass only $index value

[attr.aria-labelledby]=" ' ' + $index"
