Component with ngFor that accept template and pass it to the children, how to do it?

i'm developing an Angular 6 app. I have a component BelloComponent that render a list passed on @Input items.

@Component({
  selector: 'bello',
  template: `
    <ul *ngIf="items?.length">
      <li *ngFor="let item of items">
        ???
      </li>
    </ul>
`
})
export class BelloComponent {
  @Input() items: Array<Object>;
}

And the consumer, AppComponent uses BelloComponent. How to render the list pasisng it from AppComponent a template inside the BelloComponent tag?

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `
<bello [items]="cacche_list">
  <b>{{ name }}, puzza value: {{ puzza }}</b>
</bello>`
})
export class AppComponent  {

  cacche_list = [
    { name: 'cacca 1', puzza: 3 },
    { name: 'cacca 2', puzza: 5 },
    { name: 'cacca 3', puzza: 66 },
    { name: 'cacca 4', puzza: 5 },
    { name: 'cacca 5', puzza: 2 },
    { name: 'cacca 6', puzza: 12 },
  ];
}

The stackblitz is this: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-exbhsv?file=src%2Fapp%2Fapp.component.ts

I think i'm missing something, how to tell to BelloComponent how to render the element in the ngFor? How to have access to the single item rendered from AppComponent?

Using transclusion you can deal with it this way

@Component({
 selector: 'bello',
 template: `
    <ul *ngIf="items?.length">
     <li *ngFor="let item of items">
       <ng-container *ngTemplateOutlet="liTemplate; context: { $implicit: item}"></ng-container>
     </li>
   </ul>
 `
})
export class BelloComponent {
  @ContentChild(TemplateRef) liTemplate: TemplateRef<any>;
  @Input() items: Array<Object>;
}

and in your container component

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `
<bello [items]="cacche_list">
  <ng-template let-item>
     <b>{{ item.name }}, puzza value: {{ item.puzza }}</b>
  </ng-template>
</bello>`
})
export class AppComponent  {

  cacche_list = [
    { name: 'cacca 1', puzza: 3 },
    { name: 'cacca 2', puzza: 5 },
    { name: 'cacca 3', puzza: 66 },
    { name: 'cacca 4', puzza: 5 },
    { name: 'cacca 5', puzza: 2 },
    { name: 'cacca 6', puzza: 12 },
  ];
}

You can simply use <ng-content></ng-content> in bello component



@Component({
  selector: "bello",
  template: `
    <ul *ngIf="items?.length">
      <li *ngFor="let item of items">
        <ng-content></ng-content>
      </li>
    </ul>
  `
})
export class BelloComponent {
  @Input() items: Array<Object>;
}

only thing that missing is the {{item.name}} in your ngFor

<ul *ngIf="items?.length">
  <li *ngFor="let item of items">
    {{item.name}}
  </li>
</ul>

Demo
