is there way to create component those HTML template replaces custom selector?

Question

i'm trying to teach myself angular2. I trying to build component "trigger-resize", which i want to render as :

<a class="hidden-xs" href="">
    <em class="fa fa-navicon"></em>
</a>

and NOT as:

<trigger-resize>

   <a class="hidden-xs" href="">
      <em class="fa fa-navicon"></em>
   </a>
</trigger-resize>

(i dont want custom selector to render)

In angular 1. i know it would be achieved by "replace:true" option, but is it possible to achieve it in angular2?

Kind Regards

Answer 1

One way to do it is to use an attribute

<a triggerResize class="hidden-xs" href=""></a>

Which has a component like

@Component({
    selector : 'a[triggerResize]', //select all <a> tags with triggerResize attribute
    template : '<em class="fa fa-navicon"></em>'
})

CamelCase attributes are the proper syntax now for custom attributes in angular2
