npm install ng2-loading-spinner






shell
npm install --save ng2-loading-spinner
`Usage
Import Ng2LoadingSpinnerModule in your module`typescript
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { Ng2LoadingSpinnerModule } from 'ng2-loading-spinner'@NgModule({
imports: [ Ng2LoadingSpinnerModule.forRoot({}) ]
})
export class TestModule { }
`
then, use the ng2-loading directive on the element you want to have a spinner on:
`html
[ng2-loading]="showSpinner">
...
the directive expects a boolean for showing and removing Loading spinner:
` typescript
@Component({
selector : 'app.component',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls : [ './app.component.css' ]
})
export class AppComponent {
showSpinner: boolean = true;
constructor() {
setTimeout(() => {
this.showSpinner = false;
}, 1500);
}
}

`` typescript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
