This informative resource focuses on the concept of a Base URL - baseUrl.
It's essential to exercise caution when making changes to this, as altering the path could result in numerous errors.
To implement this, add the following line to the tsconfig.json
.
{
...
"compilerOptions": {
"baseUrl": "./", <-- Add baseUrl
....
},
"angularCompilerOptions": {
...
}
}
The directory structure is outlined as follows:
└───src
└───app
├───all-service
└───pages
├───comp-a
└───comp-b
Initially, the import paths looked like this:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { SmapleService } from '../../all-service/smaple.service';
import { MyServiceService } from '../../my-service.service';
import { CompBComponent } from '../comp-b/comp-b.component';
@Component({...})
export class CompAComponent {
compBComponent: CompBComponent = new CompBComponent();
service: MyServiceService = new MyServiceService();
service2: SmapleService = new SmapleService();
}
Upon updating the path:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CompBComponent } from '../comp-b/comp-b.component';
import { SmapleService } from 'src/app/all-service/smaple.service';
import { MyServiceService } from 'src/app/my-service.service';
@Component({...})
export class CompAComponent {
compBComponent: CompBComponent = new CompBComponent();
service: MyServiceService = new MyServiceService();
service2: SmapleService = new SmapleService();
}
Update:
It is advisable to create a Barrel for the service within the folder.
└───src
└───app
├───all-service
| └───index.ts
└───pages
├───comp-a
└───comp-b
// index.ts
export * from './smaple.service';
Lastly,
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { SmapleService } from 'src/app/all-service'; // <--Barrel
import { MyServiceService } from 'src/app/my-service.service'; // <--without Barrel
import { CompBComponent } from '../comp-b/comp-b.component';
@Component({
selector: 'app-comp-a',
standalone: true,
imports: [],
templateUrl: './comp-a.component.html',
styleUrl: './comp-a.component.scss'
})
export class CompAComponent {
compBComponent: CompBComponent = new CompBComponent();
service: MyServiceService = new MyServiceService();
service2: SmapleService = new SmapleService();
}
The recommendation is to utilize the TypeScript Barrel Generator extension.
Additionally, a Barrel is beneficial for modules containing multiple components.
