Documentation

Integrate Angular Substance Module

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { AngularSubstanceModule } from 'angular-substance';

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        AngularSubstanceModule
    ]
})
export class AppModule { }

Module Interface

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { StorageType } from 'angular-substance';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-component',
  template: `<esl-angular-substance
[               [archiveId]="archiveId" 
                [storageType]="storageType" 
                [storageUrl]="storageUrl">
            </esl-angular-substance>`
})
export class AppComponent {
    public archiveId: string = 'elife-32671';
    public storageType: StorageType = StorageType.HTTP;
    public storageUrl: string ='api/archives';
}

Properties

Property Type Default Description
archiveId string none Your Archive name or id to find in the backend storage.
storageType StorageType StorageType.HTTP The storage client you use to save documents in the backend. Normally you want save your documents in a server backend sending over http. You can use the Substance http storage client (StorageType.HTTP), As well you can use Angular http storage client (StorageType.ANGULAR_HTTP) or your own implementation of this.
storageUrl string api/archives Url address for your backend service
defaultDataFolder string ./assets/data/ Public folder with dar archives if you use VFS

CSS and Fonts Assets

Note: you need font-awesome

Update your .angular.json file in build like so...

"assets": [
  ...
  {
    "glob": "**/*",
    "input": "./node_modules/angular-substance/assets",
    "output": "./assets/"
  }
],

And load assets in your index.html

  <style>
    @import 'assets/angular-substance.css';
    @import 'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/5.11.2/css/all.css';
    body { overflow: hidden; }
    html, body { height: 100%; }
    .sc-app {
      height: 100%;
    }
  </style>

Use custom http service for your API

  • Use StorageType.ANGULAR_HTTP for property storageType in the component setup
  • Write an Custom Service with implementation of DarStorageClient
  • Inject your custom service instate of AngularHttpStorageClient in your App Module
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { AngularSubstanceModule, AngularHttpStorageClient } from 'angular-substance';

@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        AngularSubstanceModule
    ],
    providers: [
        [{ provide: AngularHttpStorageClient, useClass: CustomStorageClientService }]
    ],
})
export class AppModule { }

Setup for VFS Storage

  • Add vfs as lib to windows.vfs = your.vfs , See demo index.html
  • Use StorageType.VFS for property storageType and adjust in the component setup defaultDataFolder, pointing to your dar archives
@Component({
  ...
  template: `<esl-angular-substance
                 ...
                [storageType]="storageType"
                [defaultDataFolder]="defaultDataFolder">
            </esl-angular-substance>`
})
export class AppComponent {
    ...
    public storageType: StorageType = StorageType.VFS;
    public defaultDataFolder: string = './assets/data/';

}
