Show mat-table row dynamically after checking a checkbox

I'm trying to show next steps in my checklist with angular mat-table, after checking the checkbox in the first column.

<table mat-table [dataSource]="checklist.checklistStepList" matSort>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="checked">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Checked</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)"><mat-checkbox [checked]="step.result==='CHECKED'" (change)="updateCheck(step)"></mat-checkbox></td>
  </ng-container>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="step">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Step</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)">{{step.title}}</td>
  </ng-container>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="description">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Description</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)">{{step.description}}</td>
  </ng-container>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="owner">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Owner</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)">{{step.owner}}</td>
  </ng-container>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="date">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Date</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)">{{step.date}}</td>
  </ng-container>

  <ng-container matColumnDef="assignment">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef mat-sort-header>Assignments</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="let step" *ngIf="displayStep(step)">{{step.assignment}}</td>
  </ng-container>


  <tr mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="columnToDisplay"></tr>
  <tr mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: columnToDisplay"></tr>
</table>

As you can see here, I'm trying to hide/show my checklist steps with the function displayStep(step) which is just a function that tells me if the step should be displayed and returns a boolean.

The problem here is that my step parameter isn't recognized.

I'm expecting as an output to see the first step, and then after checking it display the next one.

To hide the row for which are not checked you can you something like this

<tr mat-header-row *matHeaderRowDef="columnToDisplay"></tr>
<tr mat-row *matRowDef="let row; columns: columnToDisplay" [hidden]="!row.checked">
</tr>

[hidden]=true while hide it

you can see the example here

I have updated your stackbliz : https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-fwnnzf-3p7xvo

explanation:

prepare a steplist on application init.

prepareSteps(){
    this.checklistSteps = [];
    for(let i = 0; i < STEPS_MOCK.length ; i++){
      let currStep = STEPS_MOCK[i];

      //push the step to stepList.
      this.checklistSteps.push(currStep);

      //if the last pusded step is not checked then our list is complete so exit the loop
      if(!currStep.checked){
        break;
      }
    }
  }

then on every checkbox change event update child steps and then prepare the list with updated stpes.

I hope this will help.
