I'm currently working on an Angular application that consists of a login component and a home component which serves as the main handler for the entire single page application. Additionally, I have three more components named users, each with functionalities for adding and editing users.
Here is a snippet from my routing file:
{ path: '', component: LoginComponent },
{ path: 'login', component: LoginComponent },
{ path: 'home', component: HomeComponent, canActivate: [AuthGuard]},
{ path: 'users', component: UsersMenuComponent, canActivate:
[AuthGuard], outlet: 'userMenu'},
{ path: 'users/add', component: AddUserComponent, canActivate:
[AuthGuard] },
{ path: 'users/edit', component: EditUserComponent, canActivate:
[AuthGuard] },
{ path: '**', redirectTo: 'login', pathMatch: 'full' }
Inside my app.component.html file, you will find this code:
<div class="container">
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
</div>
This portion is extracted from the home component:
<div>
//sidebar code
</div>
<div>
//navbar code
</div>
<div class="col content">
//uncertain about what to include here
<router-outlet name="userMenu"></router-outlet>
</div>
You may notice that I've specified a name for the router outlet called userMenu and matched it in the routing file with the UsersMenuComponent.
However, I seem to be facing challenges in rendering the user component within this section. I've attempted various approaches but haven't been successful.
In the HTML markup:
class="nav-link" [routerLink]="[{outlets: {'userMenu': ['users']}}]"
Variation in the HTML:
class="nav-link" [routerLink]="['/users',{outlets: {'userMenu': ['users']}}]"
Using a button:
this.router.navigate(['/users', {outlets: {'userMenu': ['users']}}]);
Any ideas on where I might be going wrong?
