Table of Contents

View all the directives and components in action at https://angular-material-extensions.github.io/link-preview

  • Angular (requires Angular 2 or higher, tested with V7)
npm i @angular/cdk @angular/material @angular/animations @angular/http 

or use angular schematics like e.g:

ng add @angular/material 

Installation

Install above dependencies via npm.

Now install @angular-material-extensions/link-preview via:

npm install --save @angular-material-extensions/link-preview

SystemJS

Note:If you are using SystemJS, you should adjust your configuration to point to the UMD bundle. In your systemjs config file, map needs to tell the System loader where to look for @angular-material-extensions/link-preview:

map: {
  '@angular-material-extensions/link-preview': 'node_modules/@angular-material-extensions/link-preview/bundles/link-preview.umd.js',
}

Once installed you need to import the main module:

import { MatLinkPreviewModule } from '@angular-material-extensions/link-preview';

The only remaining part is to list the imported module in your application module. The exact method will be slightly different for the root (top-level) module for which you should end up with the code similar to (notice MatLinkPreviewModule .forRoot()):

import { MatLinkPreviewModule } from '@angular-material-extensions/link-preview';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent, ...],
  imports: [MatLinkPreviewModule.forRoot(), ...],  
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
}

Other modules in your application can simply import MatLinkPreviewModule:

import { MatLinkPreviewModule } from '@angular-material-extensions/link-preview';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [OtherComponent, ...],
  imports: [MatLinkPreviewModule, ...], 
})
export class OtherModule {
}

Usage

Directives

matLinkPreview used to find and parse links from any text input - should be used in combination with <mat-link-preview-container> to render and preview the found links

e.g:

<mat-form-field class="demo-full-width" appearance="outline">
  <mat-label>Enter here your text here with few links to preview ;)</mat-label>
  <textarea matInput matTextareaAutosize matLinkPreview minRows="6"></textarea>
</mat-form-field>

Components

<mat-link-preview-container> the container that hold the links to preview

option bind type default description
color Input() string primary the color to use for the button of the url - options --> `primary
multiple Input() boolean false whether to find, parse and render one single or multiple links
showLoadingsProgress Input() boolean true whether to show and render a loading spinner while fetching the link to preview

e.g:

<mat-link-preview-container color="primary" [multiple]="true"></mat-link-preview-container>
