@karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client v17.0.0

@karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client

Angular wrapper for unleash-proxy-client.

Usage

1. Configure unleash proxy

Unleash proxy server should be run and configured.

2. Install

Install @karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client from NPM.

npm install @karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client

Install unleash-proxy-client if it is not installed yet.

npm install unleash-proxy-client

3. Initialize

karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client should be initialized once in AppModule (or bootstrap standalone component).

import { provideUnleashProxy } from '@karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client';

providers: [
  provideUnleashProxy({
    url: unleash_proxy_url,
    clientKey: client_key,
    appName: app_name,
  }),
]

4. Use

Directive

You can define else template similar to *ngIf directive.

<div *featureEnabled="'feature_name'; else disabledTmpl">enabled</div>

<ng-template #disabledTmpl>disabled</ng-template>

<div *featureDisabled="'feature_name'">disabled</div>

Guard

Optionally you can define route to redirect if feature toggle condition was not met.

const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: 'a',
    canActivate:[
      featureEnabled('feature_name'),
    ],
    component: AComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'b',
    canActivate:[
      featureDisabled('feature_name', 'c'),
    ],
    component: BComponent,
  },
  {
    path: 'c',
    component: CComponent,
  }
];

Service

UnleashService has the following logic around original unleash proxy client service:

• wraps original service events into observables
• provides isEnabled/isDisabled methods to check current toggle state
• provides isEnabled$/isDisabled$ methods returning observable to be informed about toggle state changes

Other unleash service features can be accessed with unleash property.

import { UnleashService } from '@karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client';

@Injectable()
export class MyService {
  constructor(
    private unleashService: UnleashService,
  ) {
    // don't forget to unsubscribe
    this.unleashService.isEnabled$('feature_name').pipe(
      tap(...),
    ).subscribe();
  }
  
  methodA(): void {
    if (this.unleashService.isDisabled('feature_name')) {
      ...
    }
  }

  methodB(): void {
    this.unleashService.unleash.updateContext(...);
  }
}

Updates

Feature toggles state is requested from unleash proxy each time on page load, but by default unleash proxy client every 30 seconds requests updates from unleash proxy to perform runtime changes. If requesting state on page load if enough in your case, you can disable updates using unleash configuration:

import { provideUnleashProxy } from '@karelics/angular-unleash-proxy-client';

providers: [
  provideUnleashProxy({
    ... // other options
    disableRefresh: true,
    disableMetrics: true,
  }),
]
