Consuming your library

Once you have published your library to npm, you can import your library in any Angular application by running:

$ npm install ngx-grid-stack

Then add reference to the gridstask.js, jquery, jqueryui and lodash to your index.html for how to do it check their site at

and then from your Angular AppModule:

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

// Import your library
import { GridStackModule } from 'ngx-grid-stack';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,

    // Specify your library as an import
    GridStackModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Once your library is imported, you can use its components, directives and pipes in your Angular application:

<!-- You can now use your library component in app.component.html -->
<ngx-grid-stack class="grid-stack" [options]="options">
  <ngx-grid-stack-item [option]="widget1" class="grid-stack-item"  >
  </ngx-grid-stack-item>
  <ngx-grid-stack-item [option]="widget2" class="grid-stack-item" >
  </ngx-grid-stack-item>
</ngx-grid-stack>

If you want to dynamically generate widgets:

<!-- You can now use your library component in app.component.html -->  <grid-stack #gridStackMain id="gridStackMain" class="grid-stack" [options]="area">
<button (click)="AddWidget()">Add Widget</button>
<ngx-grid-stack #gridStackMain id="gridStackMain" class="grid-stack" [options]="options">
    <ngx-grid-stack-item *ngFor="let widget of widgets" id="widget-{{widget.customId}}" [option]="widget" class="grid-stack-item">
      <div class="widget-header">
        <div class="widget-header-text">Test</div>
      </div>
      <div class="widget-content">

      </div>
	</ngx-grid-stack-item>
</ngx-grid-stack>

import { Component, OnInit, ViewChildren, QueryList, ViewChild, ChangeDetectorRef } from '@angular/core';
import { GridStackItem, GridStackOptions, GridStackItemComponent, GridStackComponent} from 'grid-stack'

@Component({
  selector: 'app-grid-stack',
  templateUrl: './app-grid-stack.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {
  @ViewChildren(GridStackItemComponent) items: QueryList<GridStackItemComponent>;
  @ViewChild('gridStackMain') gridStackMain: GridStackComponent;
  options: GridStackOptions = new GridStackOptions();
  widget1 = {
    x: 0,
    y: 0,
    height: 6,
    width: 6
  };

  widget2 = {
    x: 6,
    y: 0,
    height: 6,
    width: 6
  };

  widgets: GridStackItem[] = [];
  constructor(private cd: ChangeDetectorRef) {}

  AddWidget() {
      const widgetItem = new GridStackItem();

      widgetItem.width = 6;
      widgetItem.height = 4;
      widgetItem.x = 0;
      widgetItem.y = 0;
      widgetItem.customId = this.widgets.length.toString();
      this.widgets.push(widgetItem);
      this.cd.detectChanges();
      const arr = this.items.toArray();
      this.gridStackMain.AddWidget(arr[this.items.length - 1]);

      for (let index = 0; index < arr.length; index++) {
        const widget = arr[index];
        const widgitInitialized = widget.nativeElement.getAttribute('data-gs-init');
        const hasDraggable = widget.nativeElement.classList.contains('ui-draggable');

        if (widgitInitialized !== 'true' && !hasDraggable) {
          widget.nativeElement.setAttribute('data-gs-init', 'true');
          this.gridStackMain.AddWidget(widget);
        } else if (widgitInitialized !== 'true') {
          widget.nativeElement.setAttribute('data-gs-init', 'true');
        }
      }
  }
}
