Ngx-Bootstrap - Environment Setup
In this chapter, you will learn in detail about setting up the working environment of ngx-bootstrap on your local computer. As ngx-bootstrap is primarily for angular projects, make sure you have Node.js and npm and angular installed on your system.
Create an angular project
First create a angular project to test ngx-bootstrap components using following commands.
ng new ngxbootstrap
It will create an angular project named ngxbootstrap.
Add ngx-bootstrap as dependency
You can use the following command to install ngx-bootstrap in newly created project−
npm install ngx-bootstrap
You can observe the following output once ngx-bootstrap is successfully installed −
+ ngx-bootstrap@5.6.1 added 1 package from 1 contributor and audited 1454 packages in 16.743s
Now, to test if bootstrap works fine with Node.js, create the test component using following command −
ng g component test CREATE src/app/test/test.component.html (19 bytes) CREATE src/app/test/test.component.spec.ts (614 bytes) CREATE src/app/test/test.component.ts (267 bytes) CREATE src/app/test/test.component.css (0 bytes) UPDATE src/app/app.module.ts (388 bytes)
Clear content of app.component.html and update it following contents.
app.component.html
<app-test></app-test>
Update content of app.module.ts to include ngx-bootstrap accordion module. We ll add other module in subsequent chapters. Update it following contents.
app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from @angular/platform-browser ; import { NgModule } from @angular/core ; import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from @angular/platform-browser/animations ; import { AppComponent } from ./app.component ; import { TestComponent } from ./test/test.component ; import { AccordionModule } from ngx-bootstrap/accordion @NgModule({ declarations: [ AppComponent, TestComponent ], imports: [ BrowserAnimationsModule, BrowserModule, AccordionModule.forRoot() ], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { }
Update content of index.html to include bootstrap.css. Update it following contents.
index.html
<!doctype html> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>Ngxbootstrap</title> <base href="/"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <pnk rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico"> <pnk href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"> </head> <body> <app-root></app-root> </body> </html>
In next chapter, we ll update test component to use ngx-bootstrap components.
