@mjamsek/ngx-config
Library for runtime configuration of Angular applications
Introduction
Documentation
Installation
To install library simply execute command:
npm install --save @mjamsek/ngx-config
Usage
Initialization
Library's initialization method must be called at application startup, preferably, before any other code.
Two recommended ways:
- Register Angular application initializer (recommended - the Angular way)
- In
main.ts
file to wrap around Angular's bootstrap function
Application initializer
First, we will need to write factory function, which will call initialization method. For this we can create new file called factories.ts
and put this code in it:
import {ConfigService} from "@mjamsek/ngx-config";
import {environment} from "../environments/environment";
export function AppConfigFactory() {
return async () => {
await ConfigService.initialize("/config/config.json", environment);
};
}
Next we need to let Angular know, to use this factory when initializing application. We can do this in app.module.ts
:
import {APP_INITIALIZER, NgModule} from "@angular/core";
import {AppConfigFactory} from "./factories";
@NgModule({
declarations: [],
imports: [],
providers: [
{provide: APP_INITIALIZER, useFactory: AppConfigFactory, multi: true}
],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
Wrapping method
In file main.ts
, bootstrap Angular method with own:
import { enableProdMode } from "@angular/core";
import { platformBrowserDynamic } from "@angular/platform-browser-dynamic";
import { AppModule } from "./app/app.module";
import { environment } from "./environments/environment";
import { ConfigService } from "@mjamsek/ngx-config";
if (environment.production) {
enableProdMode();
}
ConfigService.initialize({path: "/config/config.json", environment: environment}).then(() => {
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule)
.catch(err => console.error(err));
});
