09.-Navigation-Service

Angular Navigation Service(routing) is limited to outlets. We tried a lot to extend Angular Routing. But decided to write our own Navigation Service. With Narik Navigation Service you can have multiple NavigationProvider. Everyone is registered by a key and has its own behaviour on navigation request. For example currently Narik implements two NavigationProvider.

• NarikRouteNavigationProvider

  Acts as Angular Routing.

• NarikDialogNavigationProvider

  Whenever a navigation request received, it displays requested view, in a dialog.

It can be extended with many different NavigationProvider. Like Tab NavigationProvider and...

NavigationService is the manager if NavigationProviders. It collects all provided NavigationProviders and uses then.

Example:

export class test{
    @NarikInject(NavigationService)

    someMethod()
    {
        navigationService: NavigationService;
        this.navigationService
        .navigate(
            ["../" + this.config.entityKey],
            "dialog",
            {
            relativeTo: this.route
            },
            data
        )
        .then((d: DialogRef<any>) => {
            d.events
            .pipe(filter(x => x.eventType === "ENTITY_UPDATED"))
            .subscribe(x => {
                this.refresh();
            });
        });
    }
}

If you create new NavigationProvider, you should provide it in your module providers.

    {
      provide: NavigationProvider,
      useClass: NewNavigationProvider,
      multi: true
    }
