Re-render the particular component based on detected changes-CodePudding

I have 2 simple components. One is parent the other is child. The parent component has an Array, For each element in the Array, It renders the child component.

parent.component.ts

export class parent implements OnInit {

  data: CustomType[] = [
     {
       id: "child1",
       records: [] // array of string
     },
     {
       id: "child2",
       records: [] // array of string
     }
  ];

  ngOnInit() {}
}

parent.component.html

<section>
  <ChildComponent *ngFor="let child of data | async" [obj]="child"/>
</section>

child.component.ts

export class child implements OnInit {

  // The data is passed from the parent component
  @Input() obj: CustomType;

  ngOnInit() {}
}

child.component.html

<div>
  {{ obj.id }}
</div>

The Problem

The current code works just fine. But the issue is if the records of an element change in the array, It re-renders all the children components. I want to re-render the exact component only.

I am wondering how to use the onPush Change Detection here.

For Example:

If data[0].records changes, It should re-render the data[0]'s child component only.

CodePudding user response：

add the trackBy function so that it does not render everthing but only renders the one where the trackBy function is changed!

html file

<section>
  <ChildComponent *ngFor="let child of data | async; trackBy: trackBy" [obj]="child"/>
</section>

ts file

  trackBy(index, item) {
    return item.id;
  }
