Getting started

$3

#### NPM

``shell
npm install --save @dotgov/formviewer
`

$3


Consider that every DotGov Module including FormViewer must be imported next/in same context as DGSCoreModule.

`js
import { DGSCoreModule, DGSEnvironment } from '@dotgov/core';
import { FormViewerModule } from '@dotgov/formviewer';


const dgsEnviroment: DGSEnvironment = {
debug: environment.debug,
apiUrl: environment.apiUrl,
defaultLanguage: {
Name: 'English',
Code: 'en',
Icon: 'fa fa-globe',
},
languages: [{
Name: 'English',
Code: 'en',
Icon: 'fa fa-globe',
}],
lowerCaseTranslates: true,
};

@NgModule({
declarations: [AppComponent],
imports: [
DGSCoreModule.forRoot(dgsEnviroment),
FormViewerModule.forRoot(dgsEnviroment),
],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {}

`

To load assets like themes and pdf viewer its ncessary to include assets. IF you're using the Angular CLI, you can add this to your angular-cli.json.
_Note: Path to formviewer bundle must set relative to basepath inside angular-cli.json._

`js
"apps": {
...any,
"assets": [
...any,
{
"glob": "*/",
"input": "../node_modules/@dotgov/formviewer/assets/",
"output": "./assets/"
}
],
...any,
}
`

For now library doesn't allow you to use a custom theme, but i will be avalaible soon. Keep in touch with us.
