Recently, I have started playing with angular 2. It's awesome so far. So, i have started a demo personal project for the sake of learning using angular-cli
.
With the basic routing setup, I now want to navigate to some routes from header, but since my header is a parent to the router-outlet
, I receive this error.
app.component.html
<app-header></app-header> // Trying to navigate from this component
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
<app-footer></app-footer>
header.component.html
<a [routerLink]="['/signin']">Sign in</a>
Now I understand partially I guess that since that component is a wrapper around router-outlet
it would not be possible this way to access router
. So, is there a possibility to access navigation from outside for a scenario like this?
I would be really happy to add any more information if needed. Thank you in advance.
Update
1- My package.json
already has the stable @angular/router 3.3.1
version.
2- In my main app
module, I have imported the routing-module
. Please see below.
app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { AlertModule } from 'ng2-bootstrap';
import { LayoutModule } from './layout/layout.module';
import { UsersModule } from './users/users.module';
import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { PageNotFoundComponent } from './shared/components/not-found.component';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
PageNotFoundComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
HttpModule,
AlertModule.forRoot(),
LayoutModule,
UsersModule,
AppRoutingModule --> This is the routing module.
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
app-routing.module.ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { Routes, RouterModule } from '@angular/router';
import { SigninComponent } from './users/signin/signin.component';
import { PageNotFoundComponent } from './shared/components/not-found.component';
const routes: Routes = [
{ path: '**', component: PageNotFoundComponent }
];
@NgModule({
imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule {}
The route I am trying to access is delegated from another module
that is the UsersModule
user-routing.module.ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { SigninComponent } from './signin/signin.component';
const usersRoutes: Routes = [
{ path: 'signin', component: SigninComponent }
];
@NgModule({
imports: [
RouterModule.forChild(usersRoutes)
],
exports: [
RouterModule
]
})
export class UsersRoutingModule { }
While I am trying to navigate from a component that is part of the Layout
module, but has no notion of the router module. Is that what is causing the error.
Layout.module.ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { HeaderComponent } from './header/header.component';
import { FooterComponent } from './footer/footer.component';
@NgModule({
declarations: [HeaderComponent, FooterComponent],
exports: [HeaderComponent, FooterComponent]
})
export class LayoutModule{}
I am trying to navigate from the HeaderComponent
. I would be happy to provide more information if needed.
RouterModule
toimports: []
of all modules where you userouterLink
or<router-outlet>
