p3x-angular-compile

Angular Dynamic Compile service and directive

Issues / Support

This is an open source project. Time is a precious thing, so I have rarely time to give support and fix issues for someone else. I fix a bug, when I have an error that I need. If you got an issue, error or bug, I hope someone will have time to do it for you, otherwise, you are on your own.

Though, if I know the solution, I will tell you. Besides, core errors will be fixed by me.

If you want to extend, fix bugs or add in new features, I promptly merge pull requests or you can become a patrikx3 member.

Besides, when I can support, please note, I cannot support old versions, only the current/latest version.

Node Version Requirement

>=7.8.0 

Built on Node

v8.1.0

The async and await keywords are required.

Install NodeJs:
https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/

Updating

Since, I work full time, I can work only on weekends. Github updates are released only Sundays. Minor errors can be released any time, but reflects will be shown only in NPM.

Description

Use case

Dynamic compile components by a string template for Angular. You can provide a context, that you can use with anything (for clicking for free etc..)

NPM & Version

It is a CommonJS bundle. The version reflects the Angular version (AngularMajor.AngularMinor.Build-Commit).

Install

npm install --save p3x-angular-compile
# or
yarn add p3x-angular-compile

AOT + JIT

It is not working out of the box (the default is either JIT or AOT, not both), but the apps become 10 folds faster. The @ngtools/webpack is AOT and the awesome-typescript-loader is JIT only.

The solution can be architect with the @angular/compiler and the awesome-typescript-loader together. A miracle!

Example here: More info about AOT + JIT

Size

If you want very small bundle, use gzip.

Usage

// the module settings
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // multiple directives in a shared module like this
        CorifeusWebMaterialModule,
        
        CompileModule.forRoot({
            module: {
                schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
                declarations: [MyDynamicElement ],
                // though you are better a shared component like
                imports: [
                    CorifeusWebMaterialModule
                ]
                
            }
        })
    ],
    declarations: [
        Page,
    ],
    providers: [
    ],
    bootstrap: [ Page ]
})
export class Module { };

 <div *ngIf="true" [p3x-compile]="data" [p3x-compile-ctx]="this"></div>

// a page example
export class Page {

    data: string = "<div (click)="context.alert()">It is working</div>";

    alert() {
        alert('ok');
    }
}

Actual used dynamic compiler

I use a dynamic Markdown page with p3x-angular-compile: Module , Example page

Service

Please refer to use an a service

Options

Reference for the Angular module settings.

The templates are cached.

export interface CompileOptions {   
    // cached by template
    template: string;
    container: ViewContainerRef;
    context?: any,
    
    // you can customize here any you want to
    // CommonModule, BrowserModule are auto added 
    // (like *ngIf and angular default directives)
    // though CompileModule.forRoot is usually enough
    // so you do not need to use it
    module?: NgModule;
    
    onCompiled?: Function,
    onError?: Function;

}

Deployed example

Corifeus Pages (JIT + AOT at once)

https://github.com/patrikx3/corifeus-app-web-pages/blob/master/src/angular/modules/cory-page.ts

Dev environment end test

npm install -g yarn
git clone https://github.com/patrikx3/angular-compile.git
cd angular-compile
yarn install
grunt run|default

http://localhost:8080

Errors

Type x is part of the declarations of 2 modules

Basically, you need a shared component.
