This section explains briefly about how to create a NumericTextbox control in your application with Angular.

Create NumericTextbox in Angular Application using Web pack

To quick start with Syncfusion JavaScript Angular components run the below commands to clone the repository for Web pack starter and installing required dependency packages.

JAVASCRIPT

> git clone https://github.com/syncfusion/angular2-seeds

 > cd angular2-seeds

 > npm install

The below steps describes to add numerictextbox component with above cloned seed application.

Syncfusion JavaScript components source configuration and sample creation

• Copy required Syncfusion Angular source component(s) from the below build location and add it in src/app/ej folder.

JAVASCRIPT

(Installed Location)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\14.3.0.49\JavaScript\assets-src\angular2\

NOTE

core.ts file is mandatory for all Syncfusion JavaScript Angular components. The repository having the source file from Essential Studio for JavaScript v14.3.0.49.

• Create numerictextbox folder inside src/app folder.

• Create numerictextbox.component.html view file inside src/app/numerictextbox folder and render ejNumericTextbox Angular component using the below code example.

HTML

<input id="numeric" type="text" ej-numerictextbox value="40" width="250px" />

• Create numerictextbox.component.ts model file inside the folder src/app/numerictextbox and create numerictextbox sample component using the below code example.

JAVASCRIPT

import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'ej-app',
  templateUrl: './numerictextbox.component.html'
})
export class NumericTextboxComponent { }

Configure the routes for the Router

Before adding router configuration for above created ejNumericTextbox component, we recommend you to go through the Angular Routing configuration to get the deeper knowledge about Angular routing.

• Now, we are going to configure the route navigation link for created NumericTextbox sample in src/app/app.component.html file.

HTML

<div>
	<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
		. . . .
	<li><a data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#skeleton-navigation-navbar-collapse.in" 
    href="#numerictextbox" [routerLink]="['/numerictextbox']">NumericTextbox </a></li>
	</ul>
</div>
<main>
	<router-outlet></router-outlet>
</main>

• Import the ejNumericTextbox sample component and define the route in src/app/app.routes.ts file.

JAVASCRIPT

import { Routes } from '@angular/router';
. . . . 
import { NumericTextboxComponent } from './numerictextbox/numerictextbox.component';

export const rootRouterConfig: Routes = [
    { path: '', redirectTo: 'home', pathMatch: 'full' },
    . . . . 
    { path: 'numerictextbox', component: NumericTextboxComponent }
];

• Import and declare the Syncfusion source component and ejNumericTextbox sample component into app.module.ts like the below code snippet.

JAVASCRIPT

import { NgModule, enableProdMode, ErrorHandler } from '@angular/core';
. . . . . 
import { EJAngular2Module } from 'ej-angular2';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { NumericTextboxComponent } from './numerictextbox/numerictextbox.component';

import { rootRouterConfig } from './app.routes';
. . . . 
@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule, FormsModule, HttpModule, EJAngular2Module.forRoot(),
  RouterModule.forRoot(rootRouterConfig, { useHash: true })],
  declarations: [. . . . , NumericTextboxComponent],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Running the application

• To run the application, execute below command.

JAVASCRIPT

npm start

• Browse to http://localhost:3000 to see the application. And navigate to NumericTextbox tab. The component is rendered as like the below screenshot. You can make changes in the code found under src folder and the browser should auto-refresh itself while you save files.

NOTE

if you want to use other port, open package.json file, then change port in --port 3000 script and also change the port in config/webpack.dev.js.

Create NumericTextbox in Angular Application using SystemJS

To quick start with Syncfusion JavaScript Angular components run the below commands to clone the repository for SystemJS starter and installing required dependency packages.

JAVASCRIPT

> git clone https://github.com/syncfusion/angular2-seeds/ -b systemjs

 > cd angular2-seeds

 > npm install

• Create numerictextbox.component.html view file inside src/numerictextbox folder and render ejNumericTextbox Angular component using the below code example.

HTML

<input id="numeric" type="text" ej-numerictextbox value="40" width="250px" />

• Create numerictextbox.component.ts model file inside the folder src/numerictextbox and create numerictextbox sample component using the below code example.

JAVASCRIPT

import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'ej-app',
  templateUrl: 'src/numerictextbox/numerictextbox.component.html'

	</ul>
</div>
<main>
	<router-outlet></router-outlet>
</main>

• Import the ejNumericTextbox sample component and define the route in src/app.routes.ts file.

JAVASCRIPT

import { Routes } from '@angular/router';
. . . . 
import { NumericTextboxComponent } from './numerictextbox/numerictextbox.component';

export const rootRouterConfig: Routes = [
    { path: '', redirectTo: 'home', pathMatch: 'full' },
    . . . . 
    { path: 'numerictextbox', component: NumericTextboxComponent }
];

• Import and declare the Syncfusion source component and ejNumericTextbox sample component into app.module.ts like the below code snippet.
