How to generate a pipe in Angular
Thursday, October 9, 2025
Generating Angular pipes enables you to create reusable data transformation logic for templates, providing clean and consistent formatting across your application. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve generated numerous Angular pipes for date formatting, text transformation, number formatting, and custom data processing in enterprise applications and component libraries. From my expertise, the most efficient approach is to use Angular CLI’s generate pipe command. This method creates the proper pipe structure, implements the PipeTransform interface, and generates test files while following Angular best practices for pipe development and performance optimization.
