angular-chunk-loader v0.1.2

angular-chunk-loader

A Webpack loader for Angular that allows async importing of chunks, especially useful for fetching and using entryComponents across feature modules

Installation

npm install angular-chunk-loader --save-dev

Usage

Add the angular-chunk-loader to your typescript loaders

loaders: [
  {
    test: /\.ts$/,
    loaders: [
      'awesome-typescript-loader',
      'angular-chunk-loader'
    ]
  }
]

Lazy Loading

In your source files, use System.import() with a relative path to your lazy loaded angular module.

System.import('./app/module/+my-feature/my-feature.module').then((chunk: { MyFeatureModule: Type<any>, MyFeatureModuleNgFactory: NgModuleFactory<any> }) => {
  let compiledModule: NgModuleFactory<any>;
  if (chunk.RequisitionModuleNgFactory instanceof NgModuleFactory) {
    compiledModule = chunk.RequisitionModuleNgFactory; // AOT
  } else {
    compiledModule = this.compiler.compileModuleSync(chunk.RequisitionModule);
  }
  // further process - eg. lookup component factory and instantiate components
}
