Angular2 switch div content

Question

I am wanting to switch the content of two div in angular2/ionic2 this is my code. It does switch the html but I seem to loose all binding to the elements.

<ion-list>
<div #currencyFromHtml>
  <ion-row>
    <ion-col col-8>
      <ion-item>
        <ion-input [(ngModel)]="currencyFromAmount" (ionChange)="refreshConversion()"></ion-input>
      </ion-item>
    </ion-col>
    <ion-col col-4>
      <ion-item>
          <ion-select [(ngModel)]="currencyFrom"  (ionChange)="refreshConversion()">
            <ion-option *ngFor="let c of coins; let i = index" [selected]="i==0" [value]="c">{{c.title}}</ion-option>
          </ion-select>
      </ion-item>
    </ion-col>
  </ion-row>
</div>
<ion-row>
        <button ion-button (click)="switchToAndFromCurrency()">Switch</button>
  </ion-row>
<div #currencyToHtml>
<ion-row>
    <ion-col col-8>
      <ion-item>
        <ion-input [(ngModel)]="currencyToAmount"  (ionChange)="refreshConversion()"></ion-input>
      </ion-item>
    </ion-col>
    <ion-col col-4>
    <ion-item>
        <ion-select [(ngModel)]="currencyTo" (ionChange)="refreshConversion()">
          <ion-option *ngFor="let cur of currency; let i = index" [selected]="i==0" [value]="cur">{{cur.title}}</ion-option>
        </ion-select>
    </ion-item>
  </ion-col>
  </ion-row>
</div>

The code that runs is this:

    switchToAndFromCurrency()
  {

console.log(this.currencyToHtml.nativeElement.innerHTML);

  let toHtml = this.currencyToHtml.nativeElement.innerHTML;
  let fromHtml = this.currencyFromHtml.nativeElement.innerHTML;

  this.currencyToHtml.nativeElement.innerHTML = fromHtml;
  this.currencyFromHtml.nativeElement.innerHTML = toHtml;
  }

This does the switch but I lose all the values on the page and the select elements dont work anymore.

What is the pupose behind this , so we can suggest better way of doing , as it dont looks good way of doing — Vivek Doshi, Jan 30 '18 at 16:37

All I want to do is switch the top currency div with the bottom and keep all the functions working. 500 - ZAR top div 10- USD bottom div I just want to move the bottom div to the top on a button click — Jed, Jan 30 '18 at 17:21

You could define an ng-template for each inner content, and insert each one in an ng-container with ngTemplateOutlet. When appropriate, you would swap the templates of the two containers. The idea is shown in this stackblitz.

In your case, it would be something like this:

<ng-template #currencyFrom>
  <ion-row>
    currencyFrom stuff here...
  </ion-row>
</ng-template>
<ng-template #currencyTo>
  <ion-row>
    currencyTo stuff here...
  </ion-row>
</ng-template>
<div>
  <ng-container [ngTemplateOutlet]="topTemplate"></ng-container>
</div>
<div>
  <ng-container [ngTemplateOutlet]="bottomTemplate"></ng-container>
</div>

with the component code:

@ViewChild("currencyFrom") currencyFrom: TemplateRef<any>;
@ViewChild("currencyTo") currencyTo: TemplateRef<any>;

topTemplate: TemplateRef<any>;
bottomTemplate: TemplateRef<any>;

ngOnInit(): void {
  this.topTemplate = this.currencyFrom;
  this.bottomTemplate = this.currencyTo;
}

switchToAndFromCurrency(): void {
  let temp = this.topTemplate;
  this.topTemplate = this.bottomTemplate;
  this.bottomTemplate = temp;
}
