Based on @angular/router v3-beta, these are the required steps.
Implement a resolver that returns an Observable or a plain value:
@Injectable()
export class HeroResolver implements Resolve {
constructor(
private service: HeroService
) {}
resolve(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot): Observable<Hero> {
const id = +route.params['id'];
return Observable.fromPromise(this.service.getHero(id));
}
}
Note that in case you return an observable, the unwrapped value (first one) will be available through route.snapshot.data
.
If you want the observable itself to be available, then you need to wrap it in another Observable:
return Observable.of(source$);
Add the resolver to your route:
export const HeroesRoutes: RouterConfig = [
{ path: 'heroes', component: HeroListComponent, resolve: { heroes: HeroesResolver } },
{ path: 'hero/:id', component: HeroDetailComponent, resolve: { hero: HeroResolver } }
];
Finally, provide your resolve class and any dependency to bootstrap or your main component providers
:
bootstrap(AppComponent, [
HeroesResolver, HeroService
])
Consume the resolved data from an ActivatedRoute instance:
ngOnInit() {
this.hero = this.route.snapshot.data['hero'];
}
Remember that snapshot means the value at the state of execution, both in the component class and the resolver class.
Data can't be refreshed from params updates with this approach.
