This lib is only tested on angular-cli projects, but it may work in any angular project.
Install this lib in your existing project with
yarn add ngx-admin-lte or npm install ngx-admin-lte
in your app.modules.ts, add these statements:
import { NgxAdminLteModule } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
@NgModule({
// ...
imports: [
// ...
NgxAdminLteModule,Add js and css of admin-lte in your project like so:
in your angular-cli.json
"assets": [
{ "glob": "**/*", "input": "../node_modules/ngx-admin-lte/src/public/assets", "output": "./assets" }
],
"scripts": [
"../node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.js",
"../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.js",
"../node_modules/admin-lte/dist/js/app.js"
],in your style.css
@import "../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css";
@import "../node_modules/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.css";
@import "../node_modules/admin-lte/dist/css/AdminLTE.css";
@import "../node_modules/ionicons/dist/css/ionicons.css";
// Default skin
@import "../node_modules/admin-lte/dist/css/skins/skin-blue.css";
// Optionally, add other skins you may use...
@import "../node_modules/admin-lte/dist/css/skins/skin-black.css";then you can declare your component with the adminLte template in your router:
import { CanActivateGuard, LayoutAuthComponent } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
...
const routes: Routes = [
// logged routes
{
canActivate: [CanActivateGuard],
children: [
{
canActivate: [CanActivateGuard],
component: HomeComponent,
path: 'home'
},
{
canActivate: [CanActivateGuard],
component: PageNumComponent,
path: 'page/:id'
},
],
component: LayoutAuthComponent,
path: '',
},
// not logged routes
{
component: LayoutLoginComponent,
path: 'login'
},
{
component: RegisterComponent,
path: 'register'
}
];In order to use the translation files given by the libraries, you should configure your angular-cli as:
{ "glob": "**/*", "input": "../node_modules/ngx-admin-lte/src/public/assets", "output": "./assets" }But if you want to provide your own translation files, lets say in a folder named "src/public/i18n" in your project.
( That you could have initialised it by doing cp -r ./node_modules/ngx-admin-lte/src/public/assets/i18n ./src/public/ in your project)
You could do that like so:
{ "glob": "**/*", "input": "../node_modules/ngx-admin-lte/src/public/assets/img", "output": "./assets/img" },
{ "glob": "**/*", "input": "./public/i18n", "output": "./assets/i18n" }Same principle applies if you want to override the "img" assets folder
You can change skin and hide some buttons by passing data to the layout component like so:
component: LayoutAuthComponent,
data: [{
'skin': 'skin-black',
/*
// USE THIS IS YOU WANT TO HIDE SOME TEMPLATE PART
'display_tasks': false,
'display_control': false,
'display_user': false,
'display_messages': false,
'display_notifications': false,
'display_menu_user': false,
'display_menu_search': false,
'display_logout': true,
header_components: []
*/
}],DEPRECATED: Please don't use 'menu_title' anymore, you can just set 'header' property in your links setting.
Don't forget to import the css skin in you style.css if you use it.
You can add some components in the header by adding some in the configuration of the layout like so:
'header_components': [{
class: MenuWidgetComponent,
data: {
label: 'test widget'
}
}]
the same structure can be used in the menu configuration to add components in the left menu.
import { MenuWidgetComponent } from './widgets/menu-widget/menu-widget.component';
...
let mylinks = [
//some standard link ...
{
'title': 'External Links',
'icon': 'link',
'sublinks': [
{
'title': 'Github',
'link': ['https://github.com/TwanoO67/ngx-admin-lte'],
'icon': 'github',
'external': true,
'target': '_blank'
}
]
},
// and an additionnal component
{
class: MenuWidgetComponent,
data: {
label: 'test component'
}
}
];
// then define the menu
this.menuService.setCurrent(this.mylinks);
Don't forget to add your component to the declarations and entryComponents part of your module file. Those components must implement OnChanges (so they can receive data)
If you need some practical example of using this services, check out the project Bootstraping-ngx-admin-lte
Helper to set the breadcrumb in a LayoutAuthComponent extended page.
Example for an homepage:
constructor(
private breadServ: BreadcrumbService
) {
public ngOnInit() {
// settings the header for the home
this.breadServ.setCurrent({
description: 'HomePage',
display: true,
header: 'Dashboard',
levels: [
{
icon: 'dashboard',
link: ['/'],
title: 'Home'
}
]
});
}
public ngOnDestroy() {
// removing the header
this.breadServ.clear();
}Service that check if the user is connected. If you want to use it, just put in you routes like, so;
import { CanActivateGuard } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
// ...
{
component: MyComponent,
canActivate: [CanActivateGuard],
path: 'mycompo'
}And set a user.connected = true in your user service.
Example of a basic login page:
constructor(
private userServ: UserService,
private router: Router
) {
private login() {
// DOING SOME BACKOFFICE STUFF ON THE SERVER
// then if the server said OK, then log the user in js
if ( 1 === 1 ) {
const user1 = new User( {
avatarUrl: 'assets/img/user2-160x160.jpg',
email: '[email protected]',
firstname: 'WEBER',
lastname: 'Antoine'
} );
user1.connected = true;
this.userServ.setCurrent( user1 );
this.router.navigate( ['home'] );
}
}Helper to define the footer of an LayoutAuthComponent extended page.
use setCurrent to send your footer with { left_part: "some text or", right_part: "some <span>html</span>"}
the method log is used to show some console.log using the i18n translation
Helper to define the logo of an LayoutAuthComponent extended page.
use setCurrent to send your logo with { html_mini; "<b>A</b>LTE", html_lg; "<b>Admin</b>LTE", }
You can define your own brand name in the logo, if you want it to be initialised once, do it in your app.compontent.ts like so:
import { LogoService } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
constructor(
private logoServ: LogoService
){
// ...
this.logoServ.setCurrentLogo({
html_mini; "<b>A</b>LTE",
html_lg; "<b>Admin</b>LTE",
});Please remove any usage of it.
You can set the menu links, globally (if you do that in your app.component.ts for example), or locally, if you do that in each of your component.
import { User, MenuService, Message, MessagesService } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
// ...
// define here your own links menu structure
private mylinks: any = [
{
'header': 'Custom Header'
},
{
'title': 'Home',
'icon': 'dashboard',
'link': ['/']
},
{
'title': 'Sub menu',
'icon': 'link',
'sublinks': [
{
'title': 'Page 2',
'link': ['/page/2'],
},
{
'title': 'Page 3',
'link': ['/page/3'],
}
]
}
];
constructor(
private menuServ: MenuService,
private msgServ: MessagesService
) {
}
public ngOnInit() {
// define menu
this.menuServ.setCurrentMenu(this.mylinks);Can be used to send message in the message box of the header
Example:
constructor(
private msgServ: MessagesService,
// ...
) {
// ...
}
public ngOnInit() {
// FAKE MESSAGE
// defining some users
const user1 = new User( {
avatarUrl: 'assets/img/user2-160x160.jpg',
email: '[email protected]',
firstname: 'WEBER',
lastname: 'Antoine'
});
const user2 = new User( {
avatarUrl: 'assets/img/user2-160x160.jpg',
email: 'EMAIL',
firstname: 'FIRSTNAME',
lastname: 'LASTNAME'
});
// sending a test message
this.msgServ.addMessage( new Message( {
author: user2,
content: 'le contenu d\'un message d\'une importance extreme',
destination: user1,
title: 'un message super important'
}) );Can be used to send notification in the notification box of the header
Example:
constructor(
...
private notifServ: NotificationsService
) {
...
}
public ngOnInit() {
// sending a test notification
this.notifServ.addNotification( new Notification( {
class: 'fa fa-users text-aqua',
content: '5 new members joined today',
link: '/page/2'
}) );Abstract service to contact a REST API. You can use that to do Services for you data models.
Example, for a model named "Device"
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Http, Response, Headers } from '@angular/http';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map'
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import { Device } from '../../models/device';
import { RestService } from "ngx-admin-lte";
@Injectable()
export class DeviceService extends RestService {
constructor(_http: Http) {
super(_http);
this.modelName = 'devices';
this.setApiUrl('http://my-rest_api_to_contact/devices');
}
/*This parts are only needed if you want to have correct types for your datas*/
public getAll(): Observable<Device[]>{
return super.getAll().map((tab)=> {
return <Device[]>tab.map(unit => new Device(unit) );
});
}
public get(id: number): Observable<Device>{
return super.get(id).map((unit) => <Device>unit);
}
}This service will now provide base CRUD functionality respecting the RESP in JSON API format.
// CONFIGURATION
setApiUrl( url: string)
// HELPERS WITH CACHE
getAllFromLS(maxtime = 0): Array<any>
getFromCache(id): any
// Standard REST functions
getAll(): Observable<any[]>
get(id: number): Observable<any>
add(item: any): Observable<number>
addAll(tab: Array<any>): Observable<Array<number>>
update(id: number, itemToUpdate: any): Observable<number>
delete(id: number): Observable<Response>This service will listen to your user changes and check if the current user has a selected language (in the field preferredLang).
If so, it will change the language of the app, accordingly.
Use the UserService to change the user, with language set like so:
new User( {
avatarUrl: 'assets/img/user2-160x160.jpg',
email: '[email protected]',
firstname: 'WEBER',
lastname: 'Antoine'
//set the language here
preferredLang: 'fr'
} );Supported language are: 'en', 'fr', 'ru', 'he', 'zh'
If no preferredLang is given, it will take the browser settings, and otherwise default is 'en'.
This service is used to send/get the current user information across the app
For example you can set the current user, in your login page :
import { User, UserService } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
constructor(
private _user_serv: UserService
){
ngOnInit(){
let user = new User({
firstname: "WEBER",
lastname: "Antoine",
email: "[email protected]",
avatarUrl: "assets/img/user2-160x160.jpg"
});
this._user_serv.setCurrentUser( user );and you can get the user in a widget:
import { User, UserService } from 'ngx-admin-lte';
private current_user: User;
constructor(
private _user_serv : UserService,
){
//se connecter au modification du user courant
this._user_serv.current_user.subscribe((user: User) => this.current_user = user);This widget handles the header bar, it includes other 'box' widgets for the top navigation:
- Messages Box
- Notification Box
- Tasks Box
- User box
This widget is registered to the messages service
WIP This widget is registered to the notification service
WIP This widget is registered to the task service
This widget is registered to the user service (for the current user display)
This widget handles the left navigation Menu It is registered to the user service (for the current user display)
