ngx-spinner is an Angular library that provides a variety of customizable loading spinners to indicate the loading state of a web application. It is easy to integrate and offers a wide range of spinner types and configurations.
Basic Spinner
This feature allows you to add a basic spinner to your Angular application. You can customize the background color, size, color, and type of the spinner.
<ngx-spinner bdColor="rgba(51,51,51,0.8)" size="medium" color="#fff" type="ball-scale-multiple"></ngx-spinner>Conditional Spinner
This feature allows you to display the spinner conditionally based on a boolean variable. In this example, the spinner will be shown only when `isLoading` is true.
<ngx-spinner *ngIf="isLoading" bdColor="rgba(51,51,51,0.8)" size="medium" color="#fff" type="ball-scale-multiple"></ngx-spinner>Custom Template
This feature allows you to use a custom template for the spinner. You can place any HTML content inside the ngx-spinner tag to create a custom loading indicator.
<ngx-spinner><div class="custom-spinner-template">Loading...</div></ngx-spinner>Spinner Service
This feature provides a service to control the spinner programmatically. You can use the `show` and `hide` methods of the `NgxSpinnerService` to display or hide the spinner.
import { NgxSpinnerService } from 'ngx-spinner';
constructor(private spinner: NgxSpinnerService) {}
showSpinner() {
this.spinner.show();
}
hideSpinner() {
this.spinner.hide();
}ngx-loading is another Angular library for displaying loading indicators. It offers similar functionalities to ngx-spinner but with a different set of customization options and spinner types.
angular-loading-bar is a package that provides a loading bar at the top of the page instead of a spinner. It is useful for indicating the loading state of HTTP requests and offers a different visual approach compared to ngx-spinner.
ng2-loading-spinner is a lightweight Angular library for adding loading spinners. It offers basic spinner functionalities and is simpler compared to ngx-spinner, making it suitable for projects with minimal loading indicator requirements.

Using npm:
$ npm install ngx-spinner --save
Using yarn:
$ yarn add ngx-spinner
Using angular-cli:
$ ng add ngx-spinner
Import NgxSpinnerModule in in the root module(AppModule):
import { NgModule, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
// Import library module
import { NgxSpinnerModule } from "ngx-spinner";
@NgModule({
imports: [
// ...
NgxSpinnerModule
],
schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
})
export class AppModule {}
Add NgxSpinnerService service wherever you want to use the ngx-spinner.
import { NgxSpinnerService } from "ngx-spinner";
class AppComponent implements OnInit {
constructor(private spinner: NgxSpinnerService) {}
ngOnInit() {
/** spinner starts on init */
this.spinner.show();
setTimeout(() => {
/** spinner ends after 5 seconds */
this.spinner.hide();
}, 5000);
}
}
Now use in your template
<ngx-spinner></ngx-spinner>

});
