api-gest@2.1.0

Building

To install the required dependencies and to build the typescript sources run:

npm install
npm run build

publishing

First build the package than run npm publish dist (don't forget to specify the dist folder!)

consuming

Navigate to the folder of your consuming project and run this command.

npm install api-gest@2.1.0 --save

without publishing (not recommended):

npm install PATH_TO_GENERATED_PACKAGE/dist.tgz --save
It's important to take the tgz file, otherwise you'll get trouble with links on windows.  

_using `npm link`:_

In PATH_TO_GENERATED_PACKAGE/dist:

npm link

In your project:

npm link api-gest

__Note for Windows users:__ The Angular CLI has troubles to use linked npm packages.
Please refer to this issue https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/8284 for a solution / workaround.
Published packages are not effected by this issue.


#### General usage

In your Angular project:

// without configuring providers import { ApiGestModule } from 'api-gest'; import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({ imports: [ ApiGestModule, // make sure to import the HttpClientModule in the AppModule only, // see https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/20575 HttpClientModule ], declarations: [ AppComponent ], providers: [], bootstrap: [ AppComponent ] }) export class AppModule {}

// configuring providers import { ApiGestModule, Configuration, ConfigurationParameters } from 'api-gest';

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

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

import { DefaultApi } from 'api-gest';

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

Note: The ApiGestModule 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 { AIG_PATH } from 'api-gest';

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

or

import { AIG_PATH } from 'api-gest';

@NgModule({ imports: [], declarations: [ AppComponent ], providers: [ provide: AIG_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_AIG_PATH: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080' };

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

import { AIG_PATH } from 'api-gest'; import { environment } from '../environments/environment';

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