Description

When having conditional templateUrl like this

  templateUrl:
    true === true
        ? './dashboard.component.html'
        : './dashboard.component.copy.html',

replace_resources.ts couldn't transform into proper codes (either require or import)

Minimal Reproduction

// esm

//...
AppComponent = __decorate([
    Component({
        selector: 'app-root',
        templateUrl: true === true
            ? './app.component.html'
            : './app.component.copy.html',
        styles: [__NG_CLI_RESOURCE__0, __NG_CLI_RESOURCE__1]
    })
], AppComponent);

// commonjs

//...
exports.AppComponent = AppComponent = tslib_1.__decorate([
    (0, core_1.Component)({
        selector: 'app-root',
        templateUrl: true === true
            ? './app.component.html'
            : './app.component.copy.html',
        styles: [require("./app.component.css?ngResource"), require("./app.component.2.css?ngResource")]
    })
], AppComponent);

Exception or Error

Component 'AppComponent' is not resolved:
     - templateUrl: ./app.component.html
    Did you run and wait for 'resolveComponentResources()'?

During JIT compilations, this is expected to fail since the transformer doesn't evaluate expressions. The templateUrl should be a string literal.

Should we throw an error from transformer to have a more descriptive error for this case? The current error message isn’t really clear about this caveat

We should probably add an error or warning message.
