I am going crazy trying to setup a simple test app on Angular 2. I have 3 pages/components that I want to load with the new Component Router. I've gotten it to semi work. Currently I have two problems...
1 - If you type the path of the component you want to go to Ex. "http://127.0.0.1:8080/Test2" instead of loading my Test2 page, it fails saying that it can't find that route.
2 - When trying to load different pages, the first time that I click on a link, it will properly load the page. All other pages will throw an exception when I click on a link.
This is my setup:
App.ts
import {Component, bootstrap, provide} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {ROUTER_PROVIDERS, ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, RouteConfig, APP_BASE_HREF} from 'angular2/router';
import {Test1} from './Test1';
import {Test2} from './Test2';
import {Test3} from './Test3';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: '<test1></test1><router-outlet></router-outlet>',
directives: [ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, Test1, Test2]
})
@RouteConfig([
{path: '/', as: 'Home', component: Test1},
{path: '/Test2', as: 'Test2', component: Test2},
{path: '/Test3', as: 'Test3', component: Test3}
])
class AppComponent {
constructor() {}
}
bootstrap(AppComponent, [ROUTER_PROVIDERS, provide(APP_BASE_HREF, { useValue: '/' })]);
Test1.ts
import {Component, bootstrap} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {RouterLink} from 'angular2/router';
@Component({
selector: 'test1',
templateUrl: 'app/Test1.html',
directives: [RouterLink]
})
export class Test1 { }
Test1.html
<h1> Test 1 </h1>
<a [router-link]="['/Test2']">Test Link 2</a>
Test2.ts
import {Component, bootstrap} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {RouterLink} from 'angular2/router';
@Component({
selector: 'test2',
templateUrl: 'app/Test2.html',
directives: [RouterLink]
})
export class Test2 { }
Test2.html
<h1> Test 2 </h1>
<a [router-link]="['/Test3']">Test Link 3</a>
Test3.ts
import {Component, bootstrap} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {RouterLink} from 'angular2/router';
@Component({
selector: 'test3',
templateUrl: 'app/Test3.html',
directives: [RouterLink]
})
export class Test3 { }
Test3.html
<h1> Test 3 </h1>
<a [router-link]="['/Test2']">Test Link 2</a>
Thanks for the help guys!
Yakov's LocationStrategy suggestion fixed the problem. For anyone having the same issue, the full working code at https://github.com/zorthgo/Angular2QuickstartTest, and the working version of my App.ts looks like this:
import {Component, bootstrap, provide} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {ROUTER_PROVIDERS, ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, RouteConfig, APP_BASE_HREF, LocationStrategy, HashLocationStrategy} from 'angular2/router';
import {Test1} from './Test1';
import {Test2} from './Test2';
import {Test3} from './Test3';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: ` <a [router-link]="['/Home']">Test1 Link</a>
<a [router-link]="['/Test2', {id: 3}]">Test2 Link</a>
<a [router-link]="['/Test3']">Test3 Link</a>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>`,
directives: [ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, Test1, Test2,Test3]
})
@RouteConfig([
{path: '/', component: Test1, as: 'Home'},
{path: '/Test2/:id', component: Test2, as: 'Test2'},
{path: '/Test3', component: Test3, as: 'Test3'}
])
class AppComponent {
constructor() { }
}
bootstrap(AppComponent, [ROUTER_PROVIDERS, provide(LocationStrategy, { useClass: HashLocationStrategy })]);
I did something similar and it works. Try this:
bootstrap(AppComponent, [ROUTER_PROVIDERS, provide(LocationStrategy, {useClass: HashLocationStrategy})]);
