Angular UI Development with PrimeNG

Theming Concepts and Layouts

The main goal of this chapter is to provide an introduction to PrimeNG themes, layouts, and the concepts involved. The theming concept used in PrimeNG is similar to the jQuery ThemeRoller CSS Framework (http://jqueryui.com/themeroller). PrimeNG components are designed to allow a developer to integrate them seamlessly into the look and feel of an entire web application. At the time of writing, there are 17 free themes and 5 premium themes and layouts. Free themes include ThemeRoller themes, a Twitter Bootstrap theme, and some custom themes powered by PrimeFaces and PrimeNG. Such themes are distributed along with PrimeNG itself under Apache License.

In Chapter 1, Getting Started with Angular and PrimeNG, we showed three possible setups and theme installations. You can also play with the free themes in the PrimeNG showcase (https://www.primefaces.org...

Understanding structural and skinning CSS

Each component is styled with CSS and contains two layers of style information: structural or component-specific and skinning or component-independent styles. In this section, you will understand the difference between these two types of CSS, learn some useful selectors, and see an exemplary styling of the Paginator component in the generated HTML. Let's start. Go to the Paginator showcase (https://www.primefaces.org/primeng/#/paginator) and explore the HTML code of the Paginator component. The next screenshot shows the HTML and styles in the Google Chrome DevTools.

Shortcuts for opening DevTools: F12 (Windows), command + option + I (Mac).

The highlighted line in the preceding screenshot represents the container element of the Paginator component with the following style classes:

  • ui-paginator
  • ui-unselectable-text
  • ui-widget
  • ui-widget-header

The first two style classes ui-paginator and ui-unselectable-text are generated by PrimeNG. These...

Organizing your project structure with Sass

Every large frontend application needs a robust, scalable CSS architecture. A CSS preprocessor is indispensable--it helps to write cleaner, modular code with reusable pieces and maintain large and complex style sheets. A CSS preprocessor is basically a scripting language that extends CSS and compiles it into regular CSS. There are three primary CSS preprocessors today: Sass, LESS, and Stylus. As per Google Trends, Sass is the most used preprocessor today. Sass mimics the HTML structure and lets you nest CSS selectors that follow the same visual HTML hierarchy. With CSS, you would need to write this:

.container {
  padding: 5px;
}

.container p {
  margin: 5px;
}

With Sass, you can simply write this:

.container {
  padding: 5px;
  p {
    margin: 5px;
  }
}
Sass is backward compatible with CSS, so you can easily convert your existing CSS files just by renaming the .css file extension to .scss.

While nesting CSS selectors, you can use the handy & symbol...

Simple ways to create a new theme

We sometimes need to create our own themes instead of using the predefined ones. Web applications should often feature a company-specific look and feel, which is constant and preset by company-wide style guides. Creating new themes is easy with PrimeNG, because it is powered by the ThemeRoller CSS Framework (http://jqueryui.com/themeroller). ThemeRoller provides a powerful and easy-to-use online visual tool. In this section, we will systematically show all the required steps to create a new theme. There are two ways how to create a new theme, either by ThemeRoller or from scratch with Sass.

ThemeRoller approach

To gain first-hand experience of the ThemeRoller online visual tool, go to the ThemeRoller home page, explore the available theme's gallery, and play with the CSS properties to see changes for widgets embedded on the page. All CSS changes will be applied on the fly.

We have to select one of the existing themes (the Gallery tab) and edit it (the Roll Your Own tab). A click on the Download theme button accomplishes the work.

We should deselect the Toggle All checkbox under the Components option on the Download Builder page so that our new theme only includes the skinning styles.

Next, we need to migrate the downloaded theme files from ThemeRoller to the PrimeNG theme infrastructure. The migration steps are straightforward:

  1. The theme package that we have downloaded will have a CSS file jquery-ui.theme.css (as well as minified variant) and the images folder. Extract the package and rename the CSS file as theme.css.

 

  1. In your web application, create a folder...

The Sass approach

The second way is more flexible and accurate. It is preferable to create a new theme manually by Sass because the theme is better maintainable. The main CSS settings, such as font, colors, border radius, and many more can be done configurable by Sass variables. You can create a new theme by setting custom values for those variables. This is exactly the approach followed by PrimeNG. The mostly free themes were created in such manner.

The free themes are hosted on GitHub at https://github.com/primefaces/primeng/tree/master/resources/themes.

Every theme has a separate folder with a Sass file where variables are set. The variables themselves are used in _theme.scss--shared file for all free themes. This file can be found under node_modules/primeng/resources/themes/, if you install PrimeNG as the dependency. Sometimes, you also need to set custom fonts or special settings for particular CSS selectors. You can overwrite default style rules with your own ones--just write them...

The responsive grid system in PrimeNG

PrimeNG has Grid CSS--a responsive and fluid layout system optimized for mobile devices, tablets, and desktops. PrimeNG components use Grid CSS internally, but this lightweight utility can be used as standalone as well. CSS Grid is based on the 12-columns layout as many other grid systems. The total width of all columns is 100%. In this section, we will explain all features of the PrimeNG grid system in details.

Basic principles

The layout container should have the ui-g style class. Children elements of the layout container become columns when they are prefixed with ui-g-* where * is any number from 1 to 12. The number expresses the taken space of 12 available units. When the number of columns exceeds 12, columns wrap to the next line:

<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui-g-2">2</div>
  <div class="ui-g-4">4</div>
  <div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
  <div class="ui-g-8">8</div>
  <div class="ui-g-4">4</div>
</div>

The following layout has two lines (rows):

The same two-row layout is also possible with two ui-g containers:

<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui-g-2">2</div>
  <div class="ui-g-4">4</div>
  <div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
</div>
<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui...

Nested columns

Columns can be nested in more complex layouts. To achieve that, just nest elements with the ui-g-* style classes:

<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui-g-8 ui-g-nopad">
    <div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
    <div class="ui-g-6">6</div>
    <div class="ui-g-12">12</div>
  </div>
  <div class="ui-g-4">4</div>
</div>

With this structure, columns with different content will not have equal height. There is a more robust solution to force equal height for columns with different content. Just wrap the internal div elements inside another div with the ui-g style class or even simpler, assign ui-g to the column having nested columns:

<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui-g ui-g-8 ui-g-nopad">
    <div class="ui-g-6">6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/>6<br/></div>
    <div class=...

Responsive and fluid layout

Responsive layout is achieved by applying additional classes to the columns. Four screen sizes are supported with different breakpoints.

Prefix Device Size
ui-sm-* Small devices like phones max-width: 640px
ui-md-* Medium-sized devices like tablets min-width: 641px
ui-lg-* Large-sized devices like desktops min-width: 1025px
ui-xl-* Big screen monitors min-width: 1441px

 

When an element features multiple style classes listed in the table, they get applied from the bottom to the top. Let's take an example:

<div class="ui-g">
  <div class="ui-g-12 ui-md-6 ui-lg-2">ui-g-12 ui-md-6 ui-lg-2</div>
  <div class="ui-g-12 ui-md-6 ui-lg-2">ui-g-12 ui-md-6 ui-lg-2</div>
  <div class="ui-g-12 ui-md-4 ui-lg-8">ui-g-12 ui-md-4 ui-lg-8</div>
</div>

What is happening here?

  • On large screens, three columns are displayed in proportion 2:12, 2:12, and 8:12.
  • On medium screens...

Bootstrap flexbox layout meets PrimeNG

In this section, we will reimplement the graphic editor introduced in the Organizing your project structure with Sass section with Bootstrap 4 (https://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com) and PrimeNG components. Starting with the version v4.0.0-alpha.6, Bootstrap only has a flexbox-based layout by default, with no fallback.

Flexbox is a new layout model, which is widely supported in all modern browsers (http://caniuse.com/#search=flexbox). There are many tutorials on the Internet. You can, for example, read a comprehensive guide to the CSS flexbox layout at https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox. Flexbox tackles many layout problems. One of the main advantages of flexbox is the ability to fill extra space. All columns in the flexbox layout have the same height irrespective of their content. Let's show final screens of the graphic editor for two device resolutions.

For desktop:

For mobile:

Beside PrimeNG, we need to install the latest...

Summary

After reading this chapter, you can distinguish between structural and skinning style classes. In short words, structural style classes define the skeleton of the components and the skinning ones are for theming. We have seen how to set up any PrimeNG theme and create a new one. A new theme can be created either by ThemeRoller or by setting custom values for Sass variables and CSS properties of an existing theme with subsequent compilation to a CSS file. We encourage to use a CSS preprocessor for a modular CSS architecture. Sass preprocessor helps in writing better styles. A guideline for organizing the Sass files was provided as well.

After reading this chapter, you are also able to use one of the responsive grid systems, either PrimeNG own or Bootstrap's one. PrimeNG offers a lightweight responsive and fluid layout system. Furthermore, PrimeNG components having built-in responsive mode when using the .ui-fluid style class on the top container element. The flexbox-based...

I am a professional software developer with a lot of experience in web applications development. Only recently I started to learn Angular, Typescript and I chose PrimeNG as a component library to implement GUI.The book Angular UI development with PrimeNG turned out to be just perfect for someone with my profile: for a person with previous experience in web development but new to Angular and PrimeNG.Before reading the book I went through Angular, Typescript and PrimeNG tutorials and I thought that I got a fair knowledge so that I could create a skeleton of my first application.Yet, thanks to the book I got could fill many gaps on the level of Typescript (e.g. type assertions, decorators), Angular (e.g. communication between components, built-in directives overview, ng templates, forms) and I learned about CSS theming and layouts, automated tests and got understanding of the application setup. The section related to PrimeNG components disappointed me because it overlaps a lot with the web documentation, although there were cases where the additional comments helped me to put PrimeNG components into use more quickly.The book is neither meant for a complete beginner in the web application development, nor does it offer a very deep insight into the libraries background and I can imagine that some readers may be disappointed: complete web development beginners or professionals with a solid Angular and Typescript knowledge. For me the book met the expectations and directly contributed to improving my project.

The documentation on the PrimeNG website is far better than this book. While all the elements are listed in the book, only a couple pages are devoted to each one. Honestly a VERY big waste of money.

The book tries to do too much, and does none of it well. Way too many pages devoted to fundamentals of Angular that could have better been given to the PrimeNg components. The information available on the PrimeNg website is FAR more comprehensive and usable.Also needs a good editor, as there are numerous grammatical gaffes that make it difficult to take seriously.

What is custom duty/charge? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
