In-depth understanding of NgModule (module) in Angular

NgModule module is an important point in Angular, because the basic building block of Angular is NgModule. This article will take you through the NgModule module in Angular. I hope it will be helpful to you!

#NgModule will collect related codes into some function sets to form functional units. When using the Angular CL command to create a new project, a root module will be generated for us, named AppModule. The root module has a root component AppComponent, and the application can be started by guiding this root module. Angular applications are modular. During development, we will establish various large and small modules according to their functions, functions and characteristics to build it into an application. Any module can contain any number of other components. [Related tutorial recommendations: "angularjs video tutorial"]

1.@NgModule()

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    AppRoutingModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

by ⬆️ We can see from the code that NgModule is a class with a @NgModule() decorator. It accepts a metadata object whose attributes are used to describe the module.

Click in@NgModule() We can see that the decorator class has the following attributes and the official explanation of its attributes.

export declare interface NgModule {
    providers?: Provider[];// 本模块向全局服务中贡献的那些服务的创建器。 这些服务能被本应用中的任何部分使用。（你也可以在组件级别指定服务提供商，这通常是首选方式。）
    declarations?: Array7f1674e11d542355045d5901212c35cb | any[]>;// 那些属于本 NgModule 的组件、指令、管道
    imports?: Array7f1674e11d542355045d5901212c35cb | ModuleWithProvidersd0caa276b7a674bb589eb7da91e64d11 | any[]>;// 那些导出了本模块中的组件模板所需的类的其它模块
    exports?: Array7f1674e11d542355045d5901212c35cb | any[]>;//那些能在其它模块的组件模板中使用的可声明对象的子集
    entryComponents?: Array7f1674e11d542355045d5901212c35cb | any[]>;
    bootstrap?: Array7f1674e11d542355045d5901212c35cb | any[]>;
    schemas?: Arraye24d3913b894f1ec3478c7a8ebbd648d;
}

The following is my personal colloquial understanding of this metadata attribute after using Angular

• providers: Put this module in the component The injected service must be defined in advance here, otherwise there will be an error message when using this service in this module.

• declaration: declaration means declaration in English. Declare some components, instructions, pipes, etc. to be used in some modules here.

• imports: Import some modules. For example, if I form all the instructions into a module and when I use some of the instructions, I can choose to import the entire instruction module. . You can also import some modules installed through npm install before they can be used.

• exports: Export components or instruction pipelines, etc., so that modules that reference this module can use the components or instruction pipelines of this module.

• exporyComponents: entry component represents the entry component of angular. The bootable component is an entry component, and Angular will load it into the DOM during the boot process. Other entry components are dynamically loaded at other times. Literal meaning, but when to use it, for example, if I want to pop up a component, then this component needs to be dynamically loaded into the DOM. At this time, the component xxxComponent needs to be written.

• bootstrap: The component that should be started when this module is started. From the above code, you can see that AppModule is the startup component of the root module.

• schemas: Elements or attributes that do not belong to Angular components or directives need to be declared here.

2. JavaScript module and NgModule

Both JavaScript and Angular use modules to organize code, although their organization The forms are different, but Angular applications will rely on both.

JavaScript Modules:

Modules are independent files that contain JavaScript code. To make the contents available, write an export statement

Example:

export class AppComponent { ... }

You need to use it in other files

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

<span class="kwd">And for the NgModulem module we At the beginning of the essay and the metadata that introduces him, we have a certain understanding of it. <br></span>

The NgModule class has the following key differences from the JavaScript module:

• 1. NgModule only binds declarable classes , these declarable classes are only used by the Angular compiler.

• 2. NgModule Unlike the JavaScript class that puts all its member classes in a giant file, just list the module's classes in its @NgModule.declarations list.

• 3.NgModule can only export declarable classes. This may be its own or imported from another module. It does not declare or export any other type of class.

• 4. Unlike JavaScript modules, NgModule can extend the entire application with services by adding service providers to the @NgModule.providers list.

In comparison, we can see that the NgModulem module is more flexible, scalable and has more advantages.

3. Commonly used modules

First of all, you need to know what basic modules need to be referenced to run a project. The following are some official modules provided by Angular module.

When you want to use ##@angular/formsNgModel##ReactiveFormsModuleRouterModule, HttpClientModule

NgModule	Imported from	Why use
BrowserModule	##@angular/platform-browser	When you want to run the app in the browser
##CommonModule	@angular/common	NgIf and NgFor
FormsModule	When you want to build a template driven form (which contains	)
@angular/forms	When you want to build responsive forms
@angular/router	To use the routing function, you need to use RouterLink	.forRoot() and .forChild()
@angular/common/http	When you want to talk to the server	4.特性模块的分类 官方文档将模块分为五大类。 领域特性模块 带路由的特性模块 路由模块 服务特性模块 可视部件特性模块 虽然我特么当年根本不知道，但是在开发中慢慢摸索其实发现也是根据模块的特性将模块的分类，结果不经相同。 以下为个人在开发中对功能模块的划分 1）.业务型模块：整一个应用程序，根据其业务功能我们可以将程序拆分为一个个模块，有很明确的业务特性，围绕其业务功能的模块。例如：用户模块，订单模块等。它有自己独立的路由，有提供与此模块的服务，有一个or多个组件，它惰性懒加载，不会导出or提供任何组件or指令管道，引用官方、本应用程序or第三方的功能模块。它有明确的业务特性，不与别的模块有耦合性。 2）.组件模块：应用程序中通常都有规范化的标准设计 ，比如说统一的table，card  date 等。将这些都抽出来，做成一个个组件，在模块中导出此组件以供其他模块使用，这样减少了应用程序中重复的样式代码等。曾经我是将所有这种可能多处要使用的封装为组件后，统一在一个模块中导出，后来演变为每一个组件都拆分为一个模块。这样也是发现如果这种通用性的组件多起来的话，假设有二三十个组件在这个UIComponent模块中，而我因为要使用其中一两个组件而导入这个模块，性能是很差的，所以后来都将组件拆分为一个个模块以供业务模块使用，例：DateModule，InputModule..等。 3）.服务模块：提供一些通用型的服务。比如说http服务对httpClient二次包装适用于项目，文件服务，配置服务等。 4）.其他模块：应用程序中我们会根据需要会做一些指令管道等，其就形成一个指令模块包含应用程序中所有等指令，管道模块包含应用程序中的所有管道。后来觉得，其实这些指令管道不需要集中起来统一导出引用。因为一个模块并不会引用到指令模块中超过百分之八十的指令，so 只需要把它们集中到一个pipe文件夹下，哪个模块需要用到具体个指令or管道，直接声明在其模块中使用便可。 5.创建，导入特性模块 我们将系统根据其功能 业务划分好模块，有利于合作开发，代码的维护和使用。 创建特性模块 ng g m order ng g c order/list  // 订单模块下新建一个list 组件 我们看最后cli给我们生成的目录结构 order.module.ts import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common'; import { ListComponent } from './list/list.component'; @NgModule({   declarations: [ListComponent],//定义list组件   exports: [ListComponent],//导出list组件   imports: [     CommonModule   ] }) export class OrderModule { } list.component.ts import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core'; @Component({   selector: 'app-list',   templateUrl: './list.component.html',   styleUrls: ['./list.component.scss'] }) export class ListComponent implements OnInit {   constructor() { }   ngOnInit() {   } } 导入使用特性模块  现在我们导入根模块 app.module.ts import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'; import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module'; import { AppComponent } from './app.component'; import { OrderModule } from './order/order.module'; @NgModule({   declarations: [     AppComponent   ],   imports: [     BrowserModule,     AppRoutingModule,     OrderModule //将order模块导入   ],   providers: [],   bootstrap: [AppComponent] }) export class AppModule { } app.component.html 在跟模块使用 06facb60807abb878507d2bb3961e946 11d44aba3164becbb487ce0e226cda94   4a249f0d628e2318394fd9b75b4636b1     Welcome to {{ title }}!   473f0a7621bec819994bb5020d29372a 16b28748ea4df4d9c2150843fecfba68 3745f326c17c6fdea19a677ddca2b2c758059f9a44a1b811f72224de3dd4205b b06060c1b765d597eda031c226772d27d643f9f2456fe4db0e530134a61924e2 我们可以看到渲染了order模块的list组件   6.惰性加载模块 如果我们将所有的模块都导入根模块，那么应用在初始化加载的时候就会非常慢。这时候我们应该考虑使用惰性加载。根据需求加载相应都模块，减少应用初始化包的大小以及减少加载的时间，提高用户体验性。 惰性加载的模块特点是该模块拥有路由模块。so 接着上面我们创建了一个订单模块 我们给订单模块加上路由。并再创建一个user.module以及user.module模块下的list组件。  order.module import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { CommonModule } from '@angular/common'; import { OrderRoutingModule } from './order-routing.module'; import { ListComponent } from './list/list.component'; @NgModule({   declarations: [ListComponent],   imports: [     CommonModule,     OrderRoutingModule   ] }) export class OrderModule { } order-routing.module import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { Routes, RouterModule } from '@angular/router'; import { ListComponent } from './list/list.component'; const routes: Routes = [   {     path: 'list',     component: ListComponent   }, ]; @NgModule({   imports: [RouterModule.forChild(routes)],   exports: [RouterModule] }) export class OrderRoutingModule { } user模块如此类推 接下来配置路由 AppRoutingModule在顶级路由中配置 import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'; import { Routes, RouterModule } from '@angular/router'; const routes: Routes = [   {     path: 'orders',     loadChildren: './order/order.module#OrderModule'   },   {     path: 'orders',     loadChildren: './user/user.module#UserModule'   } ]; @NgModule({   imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],   exports: [RouterModule] }) export class AppRoutingModule { } 我们给app.component.html新增两个button 06facb60807abb878507d2bb3961e946 11d44aba3164becbb487ce0e226cda94   c1a436a314ed609750bd7c7d319db4da     Welcome to {{ title }}!   2e9b454fa8428549ca2e64dfac4625cd 16b28748ea4df4d9c2150843fecfba68 7943eda4c5681bf7e23a36d72381a635user65281c5ac262bf6d81768915a4a77ac0 3f02d17bdf61d1ad6ba09c4e21fb2e45order65281c5ac262bf6d81768915a4a77ac0 b06060c1b765d597eda031c226772d27d643f9f2456fe4db0e530134a61924e2 效果图 What are the benefits of lazily loading modules? In large projects, there are often many modules, and they are very large. If a module is 1m, if we enter the address in the browser to open the application, it will be very slow to load 100m in an instant, and we do not necessarily need to use these 100 modules. Split the system business into various modules and draw clear boundaries. Load on demand, I clicked user, I loaded the user module, the user list appeared, and I operated on the user. Loading only when I need to use it greatly reduces the initial loading time of the page and reduces resource consumption. 7. Shared module Shared module, as the name suggests, is shared with in all modules. First, you must define the specific functional characteristics of this module, such as instructions, pipelines, and components, etc., which are packaged into modules. Which business modules need to use the functions inside them can be imported into their modules. For a simple example, the inputs of this system are all in the same style. We can make an input module and then directly import it in other modules. This greatly standardizes the unity of the system and reduces future maintenance costs.
