How to manage dynamic menu item?

Hello All,

Thanks in advance.

I have created demo application and make the login module. I have defined global variable in service provider after successfully login true value will be set in global variable and based on that variable i have set condition for menu in app.html but menu condition is not working. So please share your feedback for the same.

App.component.ts

this.loginState = brokerUser.loginState; /* True or false value assigned based on login */

this.accountMenuItems = [
            {title: 'My Account', component: MyAccountPage, icon: 'ios-contact'},
            {title: 'Logout', component: WelcomePage, icon: 'log-out'},
        ];

        this.loginMenuItems = [
            {title: 'Login', component: LoginPage, icon: 'ios-contact'}
        ];

App.html

<ion-list *ngIf="loginState == true">
      <ion-list-header>
        Account
      </ion-list-header>
      <button menuClose ion-item *ngFor="let menuItem of accountMenuItems" (click)="openPage(menuItem)">
        <ion-icon item-left [name]="menuItem.icon"></ion-icon>
        {{menuItem.title}}
      </button>
    </ion-list>

    <ion-list *ngIf="loginState == false">
      <ion-list-header>
        Account
      </ion-list-header>
      <button menuClose ion-item *ngFor="let menuItem of loginMenuItems" (click)="openPage(menuItem)" >
        <ion-icon item-left [name]="menuItem.icon"></ion-icon>
        {{menuItem.title}}
      </button>
    </ion-list>

Please share enough code to enable somebody to copy/paste everything into a scratch project and replicate your environment.

        this.service.login(this.LoginDetails.email,this.LoginDetails.password)

                var data = response.json();

                if(data.status) {

                    console.log('First');
                    me.navCtrl.push(MyAccountPage);
                }
            });
        ;
    }
}

Eliminate the [providers] of LoginPage. Its presence is making LoginPage have a different instance of BrokerService than MyApp does, which is causing your problem.
