NGX Plaid Link

A wrapper component to make using Plaid Link easy in Angular 6+.

This has been tested to work in at least 1 Angular 5 app as well

How to use

1a) Install from NPM

$ npm install ngx-plaid-link

1b) Or Yarn

$ yarn add ngx-plaid-link

2) Import the NgxPlaidLinkModule

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

import { AppComponent } from "./app.component";
import { NgxPlaidLinkModule } from "ngx-plaid-link";

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [BrowserModule, NgxPlaidLinkModule],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {}

3a) The easy way, the ngxPlaidLink Directives

<button ngxPlaidLink
  env="sandbox"
  publicKey="YOURPUBLICKEY"
  institution=""
  [countryCodes]="['US', 'CA', 'GB']"
  (Success)="onPlaidSuccess($event)"
  (Exit)="onPlaidExit($event)"
  (Load)="onPlaidLoad($event)"
  (Event)="onPlaidEvent($event)"
  (Click)="onPlaidClick($event)"
>Link Your Bank Account</button>

3b) The easy way, with the provided button

<mr-ngx-plaid-link-button
  env="sandbox"
  publicKey="YOURPUBLICKEY"
  institution=""
  [countryCodes]="['US', 'CA', 'GB']"
  (Success)="onPlaidSuccess($event)"
  (Exit)="onPlaidExit($event)"
  (Load)="onPlaidLoad($event)"
  (Event)="onPlaidEvent($event)"
  className="launch-plaid-link-button"
  buttonText="Link Your Bank Account"
  (Click)="onPlaidClick($event)"
></mr-ngx-plaid-link-button>

3b) The less easy way, implement yourself

Since most of the functionality is through the service you can imlpement this yourself to customize to your needs further.

import { Component, AfterViewInit } from "@angular/core";
import {
  PlaidErrorMetadata,
  PlaidErrorObject,
  PlaidEventMetadata,
  PlaidOnEventArgs,
  PlaidOnExitArgs,
  PlaidOnSuccessArgs,
  PlaidSuccessMetadata,
  PlaidConfig,
  NgxPlaidLinkService,
  PlaidLinkHandler
} from "ngx-plaid-link";

export class ComponentThatImplementsPlaidLink implements AfterViewInit {
  private plaidLinkHandler: PlaidLinkHandler;

  private config: PlaidConfig = {
    apiVersion: "v2",
    env: "sandbox",
    institution: null,
    selectAccount: false,
    token: null,
    webhook: "",
    product: ["auth"],
    countryCodes: ['US', 'CA', 'GB']
    key: "YOURPUBLICKEY"
  };

  constructor(private plaidLinkService: NgxPlaidLinkService) {}

  // Create and open programatically once the library is loaded.
  ngAfterViewInit() {
    this.plaidLinkService
      .createPlaid(
        Object.assign({}, config, {
          onSuccess: (token, metadata) => this.onSuccess(token, metadata),
          onExit: (error, metadata) => this.onExit(error, metadata),
          onEvent: (eventName, metadata) => this.onEvent(eventName, metadata)
        })
      )
      .then((handler: PlaidLinkHandler) => {
        this.plaidLinkHandler = handler;
        this.open();
      });
  }

  open() {
    this.plaidLinkHandler.open();
  }

  exit() {
    this.plaidLinkHandler.exit();
  }

  onSuccess(token, metadata) {
    console.log("We got a token:", token);
    console.log("We got metadata:", metadata);
  }

  onEvent(eventName, metadata) {
    console.log("We got an event:", eventName);
    console.log("We got metadata:", metadata);
  }

  onExit(error, metadata) {
    console.log("We exited:", error);
    console.log("We got metadata:", metadata);
  }
}

Angular Compatibility Chart

The following chart can be used to determine what version of ngx-plaid-link should be used within your angular project.

  • Note the omission of angular@12 support within the chart; this is because there has never been a version of ngx-plaid-link published that officially supports angular@12. ngx-plaid-link@1.0.3 should work fine with angular@12 (albeit with peer dependency warnings during installation) but official advice is to upgrade your project to angular@13 or later.
