Upgrading Existing AngularJS Components to Angular Elements
Explain the procedure for upgrading legacy AngularJS components into Angular Elements using ngUpgrade for seamless integration in modern applications.
import { Directive, ElementRef, Injector, Input, OnDestroy, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { UpgradeComponent } from '@angular/upgrade/static';
@Directive({
selector: 'my-angularjs-component'
})
class MyAngularJsComponentWrapper extends UpgradeComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
@Input() someInput: string;
constructor(elementRef: ElementRef, injector: Injector) {
// This sets up the AngularJS component to be used in Angular
super('myAngularJsComponent', elementRef, injector);
}
// Initialize the upgraded component
ngOnInit() {
super.ngOnInit();
}
// Cleanup when the Angular component is destroyed
ngOnDestroy() {
super.ngOnDestroy();
}
}
This is a directive that wraps the AngularJS component enabling it to be used as an Angular component. The component is upgraded using the `UpgradeComponent` class from `@angular/upgrade/static` module. The `ngOnInit` and `ngOnDestroy` lifecycle hooks are used to initialize and clean up the component respectively.
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { UpgradeModule } from '@angular/upgrade/static';
@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
UpgradeModule
],
declarations: [
MyAngularJsComponentWrapper
],
entryComponents: [
MyAngularJsComponentWrapper
]
})
export class MyAngularModule {
constructor(private upgrade: UpgradeModule) {}
ngDoBootstrap() {
this.upgrade.bootstrap(document.body, ['myAngularJsApp'], { strictDi: true });
}
}
This Angular module imports `UpgradeModule` from `@angular/upgrade/static`. It declares the wrapper component, and the `ngDoBootstrap` method manually boots the application, integrating the AngularJS components with the Angular application.
