I've just started learning angular 4. This is a simple code that I'm trying to implement in Visual Studio Code, but keep getting this error.
Uncaught Error: Template parse errors:
Can't bind to 'ngForFor' since it isn't a known property of 'li'. ("
</ul>
<ul>
<li [ERROR ->]*ngFor="let hobby for hobbies">{{hobby}}</li>
</ul>"): ng:///AppModule/UserComponent.html@6:6
Property binding ngForFor not used by any directive on an embedded template.
Make sure that the property name is spelled correctly and all directives are
listed in the "@NgModule.declarations".("
</ul>
<ul>
[ERROR ->]<li *ngFor="let hobby for hobbies">{{hobby}}</li>
</ul>"): ng:///AppModule/UserComponent.html@6:2
I tried previous solutions of adding the CommonModule to the app.module file. But it hasn't solved the issue.I cannot figure out what is wrong.
app.component.ts:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
}
app.module.ts:
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { UserComponent } from './components/user/user.component';
import {CommonModule} from '@angular/common';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
UserComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,CommonModule
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
user.component.ts:
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-user',
templateUrl: './user.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./user.component.css']
})
export class UserComponent implements OnInit {
name:string;
age:number;
address: Address;
hobbies:string[];
constructor() {
console.log('constructor ran ...');
}
ngOnInit() {
console.log('ngOnInit ran ...');
this.name='Raul';
this.age=22;
this.address= {
street:'abc',
city:'xyz',
country: 'jkl'
}
this.hobbies=['reading','playing','swimming'];
}
}
interface Address{
street:string,
city:string,
country:string
}
user.component.html:
<h1>{{name}}</h1>
<ul>
<li>Age:{{age}}</li>
<li>Address:{{address.street}}, {{address.city}},{{address.country}}</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li *ngFor="let hobby for hobbies">{{hobby}}</li>
</ul>
