Dependencies

• Angular (requires Angular 2 or higher, tested with 2.0.0)

Installation

Install above dependencies via npm.

Now install ng2-avatar via:

npm install --save ng2-avatar

---

SystemJS

Note:If you are using SystemJS, you should adjust your configuration to point to the UMD bundle. In your systemjs config file, map needs to tell the System loader where to look for ng2-avatar:

map: {
  'ng2-avatar': 'node_modules/ng2-avatar/bundles/ng2-avatar.umd.js',
}

---

Once installed you need to import the main module:

import { AvatarModule } from 'ng2-avatar';

The only remaining part is to list the imported module in your application module. The exact method will be slightly different for the root (top-level) module for which you should end up with the code similar to (notice AvatarModule.forRoot()):

import { AvatarModule } from 'ng2-avatar';

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

Other modules in your application can simply import AvatarModule:

import { AvatarModule } from 'ng2-avatar';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [OtherComponent, ...],
  imports: [LibModule, ...], 
})
export class OtherModule {
}
