Dynamically Binding the the Oracle jet switcher slot to the oracle jet add and remove tab(Make switcher slot dynamic in oracle jet) - oracle

Question

I want to make tab switcher auto decide the slot for the switcher but when I am trying to make it dynamic with the help of observable no data is showing the tab content area until I write the slot area statically. With observable variable, the slot is not getting the selected Slot value.
Please check how I can do this.
slot = [[selectedSlot]] //using for the slot value in html
this.selectedSlot = ko.observable('settings');
<div id="tabbardemo">
<oj-dialog class="tab-dialog hidden" id="tabDialog" dialog-title="Tab data">
<div slot="body">

Answer 1

It is a bit complex to understand when you copy from JET cookbook. You have done almost everything right. Just make the following changes:
1) Remove this:
Bootstrap.whenDocumentReady().then(function () {
ko.applyBindings(new ViewModel(), document.getElementById('tabbardemo'));
});
Why? The bootstrapping is required once per application, which is done inside your main.js file.
2) Replace require by define
Why? Require block is again maintained in main.js, where your required modules are pre-loaded. All subsequent viewModels have define block
3) Return an instance of your ViewModel
define([
... Your imports
],
function (Context, ko, Bootstrap, ArrayDataProvider) { // this callback gets executed when all required modules are loaded
function ViewModel() {
// Your code
}
return ViewModel;
});
