Key benefits

  • • Written by the creator of the Angular router, giving you the best information straight from the source
  • • Get full coverage of the entire Angular Router library and understand exactly how every command works
  • • Essential for all serious users of Angular who need to manage states within their applications

Description

Managing state transitions is one of the hardest parts of building applications. This is especially true on the web, where you also need to ensure that the state is reflected in the URL. In addition, you might want to split applications into multiple bundles and load them on demand. Doing this transparently isn’t easy. The Angular router solves these problems. Using the router, you can declaratively specify application states, manage state transitions while taking care of the URL, and load bundles on demand. This book is a complete description of the Angular router written by its designer. It goes far beyond a how-to-get-started guide and talks about the library in depth. The mental model, design constraints, and the subtleties of the API-everything is covered. You’ll learn in detail how to use the router in your own applications. Predominantly, you’ll understand the inner workings of the router and how you can configure it to work with any edge cases you come across in your sites. Throughout the book, you’ll see examples from real-world use in the MailApp application. You can view the full source of this application and see how the router code works to manage the state of the application and define what is visible on screen. Reading this book will give you deep insights into why the router works the way it does and will make you an Angular router expert.

Who is this book for?

To get the most from this book, you should already have a good understanding of Angular and general web development.

What you will learn

This is an excellent book for getting an in-depth look at how the Angular Router works. You can learn a lot by reading the docs on angular.io, but I highly recommend this book for taking the next step and becoming an expert in Angular routing. Routing is arguably one of the most important things you can do in a modern web app (after security of course). In fact, understanding Route Guards is a crucial first step for implementing client-side authorization strategies in your application (e.g. ensuring only administrators can access certain areas of the app). In summary, I suggest working with the router for a while on a moderately complex project, then becoming an expert with the help of this book.

I bought this book from the author's web site directly. He mentions in the book that the book and the code is frequently updated to the latest. It ain't. The book gives you some insight on how the router works, so it is not completely useless, but it is lacking. It doesn't give you practical advice. Also he does not respect the angular suggested notations. Plus some things are not properly explained. What is me meaning of the colon in the following notation when specifying a route: ':folder'?

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.
