The easiest way to lazy-load Angular Elements or any other web components in your Angular application!
by @tomastrajan
- Install
npm i @angular-extensions/elements
- Add
import { LazyElementsModule } from '@angular-extensions/elements';
- Append
LazyElementsModule
to theimports: []
of yourAppModule
- Add new
schemas: []
property withCUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA
value to@NgModule
decorator of yourAppModule
- Use
*axLazyElement
directive on an element you wish to load and pass in the url of the element bundle
Example of module implementation...
import { NgModule, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { LazyElementsModule } from '@angular-extensions/elements';
@NgModule({
schemas: [CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA],
imports: [BrowserModule, LazyElementsModule],
declarations: [AppComponent, FeatureComponent],
bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}
Example of component implementation
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'your-org-feature',
template: `
<!-- will be lazy loaded and uses standard Angular template bindings -->
<some-element
*axLazyElement="elementUrl"
[data]="data"
(dataChange)="handleChange($event)"
>
</some-element>
`,
})
export class FeatureComponent {
elementUrl = 'https://your-org.com/elements/some-element.js';
data: SomeData;
handleChange(change: Partial<SomeData>) {
// ...
}
}
Library was tested with the following versions of Angular and is meant to be used
with the corresponding major version ("@angular/core"": "^15.0.0"
with "@angular-extensions/elements": "^15.0.0"
).
- 9.x (full IVY support, using renderers so careful with SSR)
- 8.x (partial IVY support,
axLazyElement
works butaxLazyElementDynamic
does NOT work with IVY) - 7.x
- 6.x (eg
npm i @angular-extensions/elements@^6.0.0
)
