ModalService

ModalService

This service is responsible for instantiating a ModalDialog component and embedding the specified component within.

Signature

class ModalService {
  constructor(componentFactoryResolver: ComponentFactoryResolver, overlayHostService: OverlayHostService)
  fromComponent(component: Type<T> & Type<Dialog<R>>, options?: ModalOptions<T>) => Observable<R | undefined>;
  dialog(config: DialogConfig<T>) => Observable<T | undefined>;
}

Members

constructor

method
type:
(componentFactoryResolver: ComponentFactoryResolver, overlayHostService: OverlayHostService) => ModalService

fromComponent

method
type:
(component: Type<T> & Type<Dialog<R>>, options?: ModalOptions<T>) => Observable<R | undefined>

Create a modal from a component. The component must implement the Dialog interface. Additionally, the component should include templates for the title and the buttons to be displayed in the modal dialog. See example:

Example

class MyDialog implements Dialog {
 resolveWith: (result?: any) => void;

 okay() {
   doSomeWork().subscribe(result => {
     this.resolveWith(result);
   })
 }

 cancel() {
   this.resolveWith(false);
 }
}

Example

<ng-template vdrDialogTitle>Title of the modal</ng-template>

<p>
  My Content
</p>

<ng-template vdrDialogButtons>
  <button type="button"
          class="btn"
          (click)="cancel()">Cancel</button>
  <button type="button"
          class="btn btn-primary"
          (click)="okay()">Okay</button>
</ng-template>

dialog

method
type:
(config: DialogConfig<T>) => Observable<T | undefined>
Displays a modal dialog with the provided title, body and buttons.

Dialog

Any component intended to be used with the ModalService.fromComponent() method must implement this interface.

Signature

interface Dialog<R = any> {
  resolveWith: (result?: R) => void;
}

Members

Configures a generic modal dialog.

Signature

interface DialogConfig<T> {
  title: string;
  body?: string;
  translationVars?: { [key: string]: string | number };
  buttons: Array<DialogButtonConfig<T>>;
  size?: 'sm' | 'md' | 'lg' | 'xl';
