How to change/update image dynamically using amp-bind in Google AMP ?

Last Updated : 29 Oct, 2020

Sometimes you want to add custom interactivity to your AMP pages to make your pages look more user-friendly and user calling. Although AMP's pre-built components are limited, so amp-bind is made to overcome this problem. It helps the developer to add custom interactivity to the pages without using AMP's pre-built components. You can use amp-bind to change the text dynamically on user interaction with the page.

Setup: To use amp-bind in your page you have to import its script in the header of the document.

HTML

<script async custom-element="amp-bind"
    src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-bind-0.1.js">
</script>

The amp-bind of Google AMP comprises three main concepts:

State: State variables are responsible for the update on the page on the basis of user actions. It is very important to define a state variable.
Expression: They are like JavaScript expressions used to refer to the state.
Binding: They are a special attribute that is used to link an element's property to a state via an expression.

Example:

HTML

<!doctype html>
<html amp>

<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Google AMP amp-bind</title>

    <link rel="canonical" href=
"https://amp.dev/documentation/examples/components/amp-bind/index.html">

    <meta name="viewport" content=
"width=device-width,minimum-scale=1,initial-scale=1">

    <script async src=
        "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0.js">
    </script>

    <script async custom-element="amp-bind" 
src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-bind-0.1.js">
    </script>

    <style amp-boilerplate>
        body {
            -webkit-animation: -amp-start 8s 
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;

            -moz-animation: -amp-start 8s 
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;

            -ms-animation: -amp-start 8s 
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;

            animation: -amp-start 8s 
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;
        }

        @-webkit-keyframes -amp-start {

                animation: none
            }
        </style>
    </noscript>

    <style amp-custom>
        h1 {

            text-align: center;
        }

        .gfgNew {

        }

        .gfgOld {
            border: 5px solid orange;

<body>
    <h1>

    </amp-state>

    <div style="padding: 1em;">

            Each logo has different border color...
        </p>

                [src]="gfg[logo].imageUrl" 
                class="gfgOld" 
                [class]="gfg[logo].style">
            </amp-img>
            <br>
            <button on="tap:AMP.setState({logo: 'new'})">
                New Logo
            </button>
            <button on="tap:AMP.setState({logo: 'old'})">
                Old Logo
            </button>
        </center>
    </div>
</body>

</html>

Output:

When New Logo button was hit, image and border color both got dynamically changed. When we hit Old Logo button image and border color changed to the previous combination.
