This is how you insert params into a directive.
<p [gridGroup]="gridGroup"></p>
But what I am wanting to do is make the param optional so that I won't have to always include it within my class.
I am required to insert gridGroup in each class that references this html source.
I have tried
<p [gridGroup?]="gridGroup"></p>
and
<p [gridGroup]="gridGroup?"></p>
Both give me compile errors
