Auto Complete

Reusable Auto Complete that extends Mat Auto Complete component

Demo

https://main--js-smart-ngxsmart.netlify.app/autocomplete-demo

Usage

The library has one autocomplete component. To use the Auto Complete component, add the following code to the HTML page

app.component.html

<!-- Auto Complete with Objects -->

<form [formGroup]="genericFormGroup">
    <autocomplete
      [data]="cities"
      [inputFormGroup]="genericFormGroup"
      [required]="true"
      [displayWith]="displayFn"
      bindLabel="location"
      bindValue="id"
      label="City"
      placeHolder="Select City">
    </autocomplete>
</form>

app.component.ts

Then define form group instances and object array (cities) and names (for string array)

// Define objects  
cities = [{id: 1001, location: 'New York'}, {id: 1002, location: 'Boston'}, {id: 1001, location: 'Washington DC'}];

// Define Form Groups 
inputFormGroup = this.fb.group({
  autocomplete: ['']
})

//Display function
displayFn(object: any): string {
		if (typeof object === "string") return object;
		return object && object["location"] ? object["location"] : "";
	}

If you are using strings rather than objects, do not provide bindLabel, bindValue and displayWith inputs. See below sample

<!-- Auto Complete with Strings -->
<form [formGroup]="inputFormGroup">
  <autocomplete
    [data]="names"
    [inputFormGroup]="inputFormGroup"
    [required]="true"
    label="City"
    placeHolder="Select City">
  </autocomplete>
</form>

Print

Angular (2++) directive that prints HTML section

Usage

Import the main module NgxPrintModule :

import {NgxPrintModule} from '@js-smart/print';

@NgModule({
...
 imports:
[NgxPrintModule, ...],
...
})

export class YourAppModule {
}

3- Then plug n' play with it:

• Assuming you want to print the following HTML section:

<div>
  <!--Your html stuff that you want to print-->
</div>
<button>print</button> <!--Your relevant print button-->

• Now, what you have to do is tagging your wanted-to-print section by an id attribute, then link that id to a directive parameter in your button :

 <!--
   1)- Add an ID here
 -->
<div id="print-section">
  <!--Your html stuff that you want to print-->
</div>

<!--
  2)- Add the directive name in your button (ngxPrint),
  3)- Affect your ID to printSectionId
-->
<button printSectionId="print-section" ngxPrint>print</button>

Optional properties

• You want a customized title for your printing window ? you have the choice by adding a new attribute to your print button printTitle:

<div id="print-section">

  <!-- ... -->

</div>

<button
  printTitle="MyTitle"
  printSectionId="print-section"
  ngxPrint>print
</button>

• Also, would you like to customize the printing window style sheet (CSS) ? Hence you can do so by adding infinite styles to another attribute called printStyle:

<div id="print-section">

  <!-- ... -->

</div>

<button
  [printStyle]="{h1 : {'color': 'red'}, h2 : {'border': 'solid 1px'}}"
  printSectionId="print-section"
  ngxPrint>print
</button>

Here some simple styles were added to every h1 & h2 tags within the div where print-section is tagged to its id attribute.

• If you would like to use your existing CSS with media print you can add the useExistingCss attribute:

<div id="print-section">

  <!-- ... -->

</div>

<button
  [useExistingCss]="true"
  printSectionId="print-section"
  ngxPrint>print
</button>

• If you want to customize the printing window style sheet (CSS) by importing the css provided in assets/css use styleSheetFile:

<div id="print-section">

  <!-- ... -->

</div>

<button
  styleSheetFile="assets/css/custom1.css,assets/css/custom2.css"
  printSectionId="print-section"
  ngxPrint>print
</button>
