Ng-ag-grid-schematics NPM

ng-ag-grid-schematics

ng-ag-grid-schematics is a set of Angular schematics that simplify the integration of the ag-Grid data grid library into your Angular applications. With these schematics, you can quickly generate Angular components, templates, and stylesheets tailored for use with ag-Grid, while also managing ag-Grid dependencies and styles effortlessly.

Follow this guide to get started with ng-ag-grid-schematics in your Angular projects.

Installation

Install ng-ag-grid-schematics from npm to your Angular project:

ng add ng-ag-grid-schematics

This command will add ng-ag-grid-schematics to your project and configure it for use.

Running the Schematic

Generate ag-Grid components and configure your project by running the following command:

ng generate ng-ag-grid-schematics:nags

This command will launch a series of prompts to help you configure and generate ag-Grid components.

Input Configuration

You will be prompted to provide the following inputs:

Name: Enter a name for your ag-Grid component.

...
? What name would you like to use for the component? my-grid
...

Project: Specify the project to run the schematic in. Note: Since Angular 14, the defaultProject property has been deprecated, and the default project must be explicitly specified.

...
? Enter project name: my-angular-app
...

Path: Specify the path where you want to generate the component. The path parameter specifies the location where the component will be generated. This path is relative to the project root src/app/${path}.

...
? Enter the path for the component: shared/components/ag-grid
...

Styling and State Management

You will also be prompted to configure the styling and state management for your ag-Grid component:

Style: Select the stylesheet format for your component. You can choose between "No stylesheet," "CSS," or "SCSS.". Note that your selection should correspond to the inlineStyleLanguage configuration in your angular.json file.
State Management: Choose a state management option for preserving changes in your grid component. Options include "No State," "Component Store," and "Component Store with EntityAdapter."

File Generation

After providing the necessary inputs and configuration, the schematic will generate the following files and perform the following actions:

Generate ag-Grid component files based on your inputs (component, template, styles).
Add ag-Grid styles to your project's root styles file (styles.css or styles.scss).
Add ag-Grid dependencies to your project's package.json file.

Example

? What name would you like to use for the component? my-grid
? Enter project name: ng-ag-grid-sa
? Enter the path for the component: shared/component/ag-grid
? Which stylesheet format would you like to use? SCSS   [ https://sass-lang.com/documentation/syntax#scss ]
? Which state management option would you like to use? Component Store                      [ https://ngrx.io/guide/component-store   ]
