npm install ngx-bind-io


Directives for auto binding Input() and Output() from host component to inner in Angular9+ application
- Example
- Installation
- Links
- Usage
- Debug
- Rules for detect inputs and outputs
- Bind to dynamic components
- Work without IVY Renderer
Without auto binding inputs and outputs
``html`
With auto binding inputs and outputs
`html`
`bash`
npm i --save ngx-bind-io
Demo - Demo application with ngx-bind-io.
Stackblitz - Simply sample of usage on https://stackblitz.com

`Bind to dynamic components
Becouse dynamic components not have normal lifecicle, recomendate define they without OnPush strategy.
If you want use with OnPush, you may use Inputs with BindObservable and call properties with async pipe.
Or use NgxBindIoService and run method linkHostToInner for bind inputs and outputs.
inner.component.ts
`js
import { ChangeDetectionStrategy, Component, EventEmitter, Input, Output } from '@angular/core';
import { BindIoInner } from 'ngx-bind-io';@BindIoInner() // <-- need for correct detect manual inputs like [propName]="propValue"
@Component({
selector: 'inner',
// changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush, <-- change detection with OnPush strategy incorrected work for dynamic components
template:
})
export class InnerComponent {
@Input()
isLoading: boolean = undefined;
@Input()
propA = 'Prop A: not defined';
@Input()
propB = 'Prop B: not defined';
@Output()
start = new EventEmitter();
onStart() {
this.start.next(true);
}
}
`host.component.ts
`js
import { ChangeDetectionStrategy, ChangeDetectorRef, Component, SkipSelf } from '@angular/core';
import { BaseHostComponent } from './base-host.component';
import { BehaviorSubject } from 'rxjs';
import { InnerComponent } from './inner.component';@Component({
selector: 'host',
changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush,
template:
})
export class HostComponent {
@ViewChild('inner', { read: ViewContainerRef })
inner: ViewContainerRef; propA = 'Prop A: defined';
propB = 'Prop B: defined';
isLoading$ = new BehaviorSubject(false);
constructor(
private _ngxBindIoService: NgxBindIoService,
@SkipSelf()
private _parentInjector: Injector,
private _changeDetectorRef: ChangeDetectorRef,
private _resolver: ComponentFactoryResolver
) {
this.createInner();
}
createInner() {
this.inner.clear();
const factory = this._resolver.resolveComponentFactory(InnerComponent);
const componentRef = this.inner.createComponent(factory);
this._ngxBindIoService.linkHostToInner(
this,
componentRef.instance,
{ propA: this.propA, propB: this.propB },

Work without IVY Renderer
_For correct work without IVY Renderer, all inner Inputs, Outputs and all host properties must be initialized, you can set them to "undefined"._
For check project ready to use bindIO directives, you may use ngx-bind-io-cli and run:
`bash
npx ngx-bind-io-cli ./src --maxInputs=0 --maxOutputs=0
`For check and add initialize statement:
`bash
npx ngx-bind-io-cli ./src --fix=all --maxInputs=0 --maxOutputs=0
`For check and add initialize statement if you want correct work with tspath:
`bash
npx ngx-bind-io-cli ./src --fix=all --maxInputs=0 --maxOutputs=0 --tsconfig=./src/tsconfig.app.json
