Issue: I've been working on integrating a login component with Google authentication in my Angular application. The user information is retrieved upon successful authentication, a token is generated, and then sent to the backend for further processing. Here's the TypeScript code I have implemented:
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppRoutingModule } from '../app.routes';
declare var google: any;
@Component({
selector: 'app-log-in',
templateUrl: './log-in.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./log-in.component.css']
})
export class LogInComponent implements OnInit {
constructor(private http: HttpClient, private router: Router) {}
ngOnInit(): void {
(window as any)['handleCredentialResponse'] = this.handleCredentialResponse.bind(this);
}
handleCredentialResponse(response: any): void {
const idToken = response.credential;
this.http.post('http://localhost:3000/login', { id_token: idToken })
.subscribe(
(data: any) => {
console.log('Success:', data);
// Handle success (e.g., store user info, redirect to dashboard)
this.router.navigate(['/dashboard']);
},
(error: any) => {
console.error('Error:', error);
}
);
}
}
Current Challenge
Upon implementing the above code, my Angular application refuses to launch and displays the error message:
"NG04014: Invalid configuration of route 'login'. One of the following must be provided: component, loadComponent, redirectTo, children or loadChildren."
I did not encounter this issue before, and previously all routes were functioning correctly. Below are the defined routes in my application:
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { ErrorComponent } from './error/error.component';
import { LogInComponent } from './log-in/log-in.component';
import { DashBoardComponent } from './dash-board/dash-board.component';
const routes: Routes = [
{ path: '', redirectTo: '/login', pathMatch: 'full' },
{ path: 'login', component: LogInComponent },
{ path: 'dashboard', component: DashBoardComponent },
{ path: 'error', component: ErrorComponent },
];
@NgModule({
imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule { }
Additional Request: Could someone please review the handleCredentialResponse function implementation for correctness? Due to the routing issue, I am unable to verify its functionality.
Thank you in advance!
