If you want to use AngularJs Directive with dynamic template, you can use those answers,But here is more professional and legal syntax of it.You can use templateUrl not only with single value.You can use it as a function,which returns a value as url.That function has some arguments,which you can use.

You should move your switch into the template by using the  ng-switch  directive   module directive  testForm   function         return           restrict   E           controllerAs   form           controller  function   scope                console log  Form controller initialization                var self   this              this fields                   this addField   function field                    console log  New field     field                   self fields field name    field                                      module directive  formField   function          return           require    testForm           template                lt div ng-switch  field fieldType  gt                       lt span gt   title    lt  span gt                       lt input                         ng-switch-when  text                          name    field name                            type  text                          ng-model  field value                        gt                       lt select                         ng-switch-when  select                          name    field name                            ng-model  field value                          ng-options  option for option in options  gt                           lt option value    gt  lt  option gt                       lt  select gt                   lt  div gt            restrict   E           replace  true          scope                fieldType                   title                   name                   value                   options                          link  function  scope   element   attrs  form                 scope field    scope              form addField  scope                          It can be use like this    lt test-form gt       lt div gt          User     form fields email value    will be a    form fields role value        lt  div gt       lt form-field title  Email  name  email  field-type  text  value  me example com  gt  lt  form-field gt       lt form-field title  Role  name  role  field-type  select  options    Cook    Eater    gt  lt  form-field gt       lt form-field title  Sex  name  sex  field-type  select  options    Awesome    So-so    awful    gt  lt  form-field gt   lt  test-form gt

Had a similar need   compile does the job   Not completely sure if this is  THE  way to do it  still working my way through angular   http   jsbin com ebuhuv 7 edit - my exploration test   One thing to note  per my example   one of my requirements was that the template would change based on a type attribute once you clicked save  and the templates were very different  So though  you get the data binding  if need a new template in there  you will have to recompile

I have been in the same situation  my complete solution has been posted here  Basically I load a template in the directive in this way  var tpl              lt div ng-if  maxLength           ng-include    length tpl html    gt       lt  div gt           lt div ng-if  required           ng-include    required tpl html    gt       lt  div gt      then according to the value of maxLength and required I can dynamically load one of the 2 templates  only one of them at a time is shown if necessary   I heope it helps

i ve used the  templateCache to accomplish something similar  i put several ng-templates in a single html file  which i reference using the directive s templateUrl  that ensures the html is available to the template cache  then i can simply select by id to get the ng-template i want   template html    lt script type  text ng-template  id    foo    gt  foo  lt  script gt    lt script type  text ng-template  id    bar    gt  bar  lt  script gt    directive   myapp directive    foobardirective        compile     templateCache   function   compile   templateCache         var getTemplate   function data               use data to determine which template to use         var templateid    foo           var template    templateCache get templateid           return template             return           templateUrl   views partials template html           scope   data                restrict   E           link  function scope  element                var template   getTemplate scope data                element html template                compile element contents    scope
