Use with 3rd party component libraries

[nikolasleblanc]

Hey @TheLarkInn, quick question for you, we're developing a component library with angular 2 that is then consumed by angular 2 applications.

Is angular2-template-loader capable of digging into the component files of such a library and swapping out its templateUrls and styleUrls just as it does the consuming application, provided everything's getting pulled in by webpack (which it is)?

Let me know if I can clarify my question for you.

Thanks.

It is however the stipulation is that you would need to have the libraries ts src available. This loader should be able to load js transpiled but I have seen issues with this in the past, would be open to merging a PR that supports this.

Hey, is there a way to use this loader with third party libraries?
Or is just a no go for third party libraries with angular?
Also I think my opened, now closed, issue #48 shouldn't be closed. Because it's related to this incompatibility with third party libraries with this loader.

I've also made this question in Stackoverflow.

Been there, gave you a response in SO.

The answer of @nikolasleblanc works like a charm!!
Just take in mind that this wouldn't work with lazy loaded routes in you library.
