Domo IDEAs Conference - Beast Modes - Conditional Formatting

Greetings! This is another post highlighting a beast mode from my Domo IDEAs conference session. This one covers how to format numbers a number when concatenating with a string.

Problem:

Conditionally color a number based on a specific condition

Solution:

We can utilize the <div> and <span> tags with some CSS styling code to specify some color and conditionally combine those with a color value using CASE and CONCAT

  1. -- Author:
  2. -- Created:
  3. -- Last Modified:
  4. -- Description: Use a CASE statement to conditionally color even numbers as green and odd numbers as red
  5. -- MOD([VALUE], 2) returns the remainder of dividing the [VALUE] by 2. 0 for even and 1 for odd.
  6. -- The coloring is using <div> and <span> with styling to perform the colorization
  7. -- Note: This only works with an HTML table card.
  8. CONCAT('<div><span style="color: ',
  9. CASE WHEN MOD(FLOOR(SUM(`random_number`)), 2) = 0 THEN 'green' ELSE 'red' END,
  10.   '">',
  11.   FLOOR(SUM(`random_number`)),
  12.   '</span></div>')
  13.  


Note:

Because HTML coding / tags are being utilized an HTML table is the only card which will support this.
