Real-Time Form Collaboration
Code an Angular form that multiple users can edit simultaneously. Form changes are broadcast via WebSocket to all users in real time.
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Subject, Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { WebsocketService } from './websocket.service';
@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root'
})
export class FormSyncService {
private formUpdates = new Subject<any>();
public formUpdates$: Observable<any> = this.formUpdates.asObservable();
constructor(private websocketService: WebsocketService) {
this.websocketService.connect('ws://your-websocket-endpoint').subscribe(
(data) => {
this.formUpdates.next(data);
}
);
}
sendFormUpdate(data: any) {
this.websocketService.send(JSON.stringify(data));
}
}
This Angular service uses a WebsocketService to send and receive form data updates.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { FormGroup, FormBuilder } from '@angular/forms';
import { FormSyncService } from './form-sync.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-collaborative-form',
template: `
<form [formGroup]="collabForm" (ngSubmit)="onSubmit()">
<input
type="text"
formControlName="field1"
(change)="onFieldChange('field1', $event.target.value)"
/>
<!-- Add more form fields as needed -->
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
`
})
export class CollaborativeFormComponent {
collabForm: FormGroup;
constructor(private fb: FormBuilder, private formSyncService: FormSyncService) {
this.collabForm = this.fb.group({
field1: '',
// Add more form controls as needed
});
this.formSyncService.formUpdates$.subscribe((data) => this.applyFormUpdates(data));
}
onFieldChange(fieldName: string, value: any) {
this.formSyncService.sendFormUpdate({ [fieldName]: value });
}
applyFormUpdates(data: any) {
this.collabForm.patchValue(data, { emitEvent: false });
}
onSubmit() {
console.log(this.collabForm.value);
}
}
This Angular component sets up a collaborative form and subscribes to form changes using the FormSyncService. Changes to form fields are sent to the WebSocket server.
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Observable, Observer } from 'rxjs';
import { WebSocketSubject, webSocket } from 'rxjs/webSocket';
@Injectable({
providedIn: 'root'
})
export class WebsocketService {
private socket: WebSocketSubject<any>;
constructor() {}
connect(url: string): Observable<any> {
if (!this.socket || this.socket.closed) {
this.socket = webSocket({ url, deserializer: e => JSON.parse(e.data) });
}
return this.socket.asObservable();
}
send(data: any) {
if (this.socket) {
this.socket.next(data);
}
}
}
This Angular service handles the WebSocket connection, including sending and receiving messages.
