Angular - 'Could not find HammerJS'
In your package.json
file add this to dependencies
"hammerjs": "^2.0.8",
Or if you want an alternative automatic way just you can type npm i hammerjs --save
(or npm i [email protected] --save
if you want, since 2.0.8
is the latest version nowdays) in your root project folder and test then, if the problem still occurring try to delete the node_modules
folder and reinstall it in the root project folder also by running npm install
which will check the dependencies
(where hammerjs
resides), devDependencies
..., in package.json
file and install them.
Also in your polyfills.ts
(recommended to have a one if you have not)
import 'hammerjs/hammer';
Thus, it would be found while your angular app is executed since polyfills.ts
itself is called by import (in a normal case, else you can check it) in main.ts
which is the angular apps' entry point.
In your systemjs.config.js
file you also need to add the following entry:
'hammerjs': 'npm:hammerjs/hammer.js',
along with of course:
'@angular/material': 'npm:@angular/material/bundles/material.umd.js',
The other thing that's missing from your code (at least based on what you have in the GH repo) is the inclusion of the Material Design CSS, add this to your index.html
file:
<link href="https://rawgit.com/angular/material2-builds/master/core/theming/prebuilt/indigo-pink.css" rel="stylesheet">
I hope this helps.
this worked for me (and this is with ionic4 as well) I could make hammer.js work - and also ionic with material.angular.io (in the bottom)
Hammer + ionic (hammer + angular as well):
npm install --save hammerjs
npm install --save @types/hammerjs
then
package.json
make sure in dependencies there is this line
"hammerjs": "^2.0.8",
then
tsconfig.json - added types as seen below
"compilerOptions": {
...
...
"types": [
"hammerjs"
]
}
then
in app.component.ts (only there)
import 'hammerjs';
then
in html file (I just took out the first and last < > signs)
div id="myElement"></div
in .ts file
Sample code from hammerjs site works
let element2 = document.getElementById('myElement');
let hamming = new Hammer(element2);
hamming.on("panleft panright tap press pressup", function(ev) {
element2.textContent = ev.type +" gesture detected.";
console.log(ev.type +" gesture detected.");
});
Hammer+ionic+material: to make material hammer work with ionic
in app.module
import { HAMMER_GESTURE_CONFIG } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { GestureConfig } from '@angular/material';
providers: [
{ provide: HAMMER_GESTURE_CONFIG, useClass: GestureConfig },
]
and voila, your material slider works.
Install hammerjs
with npm
npm install --save hammerjs
(or) with yarn
yarn add hammerjs
Then import hammerjs
on your app's entry point (e.g. src/main.ts).
import 'hammerjs';
