npm run build

publishing

First build the package than run npm publish

consuming

navigate to the folder of your consuming project and run one of next commando's.

published:

npm install @herd/angular-client@latest --save

unPublished (not recommended):

npm install PATH_TO_GENERATED_PACKAGE --save

using npm link:

In PATH_TO_GENERATED_PACKAGE:

npm link

In your project:

npm link @herd/angular-client

In your Angular project:

// without configuring providers
import { ApiModule } from '@herd/angular-client';

@NgModule({
    imports: [ ApiModule ],
    declarations: [ AppComponent ],
    providers: [],
    bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule {}

// configuring providers
import { ApiModule, Configuration, ConfigurationParameters } from '@herd/angular-client';

export function apiConfigFactory (): Configuration => {
  const params: ConfigurationParameters = {
    // set configuration parameters here.
  }
  return new Configuration(params);
}

@NgModule({
    imports: [ ApiModule.forRoot(apiConfigFactory) ],
    declarations: [ AppComponent ],
    providers: [],
    bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule {}

import { DefaultApi } from '@herd/angular-client';

export class AppComponent {
	 constructor(private apiGateway: DefaultApi) { }
}

Note: The ApiModule is restricted to being instantiated once app wide. This is to ensure that all services are treated as singletons.

Set service base path

If different than the generated base path, during app bootstrap, you can provide the base path to your service.

import { BASE_PATH } from '@herd/angular-client';

bootstrap(AppComponent, [
    { provide: BASE_PATH, useValue: 'https://your-web-service.com' },
]);

or

import { BASE_PATH } from '@herd/angular-client';

@NgModule({
    imports: [],
    declarations: [ AppComponent ],
    providers: [ provide: BASE_PATH, useValue: 'https://your-web-service.com' ],
    bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule {}

Using @angular/cli

First extend your src/environments/*.ts files by adding the corresponding base path:

export const environment = {
  production: false,
  API_BASE_PATH: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080'
};

In the src/app/app.module.ts:

import { BASE_PATH } from '@herd/angular-client';
import { environment } from '../environments/environment';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [ ],
  providers: [{ provide: BASE_PATH, useValue: environment.API_BASE_PATH }],
  bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule { }
