How to use angular 6 Route Auth Guards for all routes Root and Child Routes?
https://angular.io/guide/router#canactivate-requiring-authentication
https://angular.io/guide/router#canactivatechild-guarding-child-routes
These are really good examples from the Angular.io tutorial "Tour of Heroes" that explain really well authentication for root and child routes.
1) [ Create guard, the file name would be like auth.guard.ts ]
ng generate guard auth
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { CanActivate, ActivatedRouteSnapshot, RouterStateSnapshot } from
'@angular/router';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import { AuthService } from './auth.service';
import {Router} from '@angular/router';
@Injectable()
export class AuthGuard implements CanActivate {
constructor(private auth: AuthService,
private myRoute: Router){
}
canActivate(
next: ActivatedRouteSnapshot,
state: RouterStateSnapshot): Observable<boolean> | Promise<boolean> | boolean {
if(this.auth.isLoggedIn()){
return true;
}else{
this.myRoute.navigate(["login"]);
return false;
}
}
}
2) Create below pages
ng g c login [Create login page ]
ng g c nav [Create nav page ]
ng g c home [Create home page ]
ng g c registration [Create registration page ]
3) App.module.ts file add below contents
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule,Router,Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { ReactiveFormsModule,FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { AuthService } from './auth.service';
import { AuthGuard } from './auth.guard';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { LoginComponent } from './login/login.component';
import { NavComponent } from './nav/nav.component';
import { HomeComponent } from './home/home.component';
import { RegistrationComponent } from './registration/registration.component';
const myRoots: Routes = [
{ path: '', component: HomeComponent, pathMatch: 'full' , canActivate:
[AuthGuard]},
{ path: 'register', component: RegistrationComponent },
{ path: 'login', component: LoginComponent},
{ path: 'home', component: HomeComponent, canActivate: [AuthGuard]}
];
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
LoginComponent,
NavComponent,
HomeComponent,
RegistrationComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,ReactiveFormsModule,FormsModule,
RouterModule.forRoot(
myRoots,
{ enableTracing: true } // <-- debugging purposes only
)
],
providers: [AuthService,AuthGuard],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
4) Add link in nav.component.html
<p color="primary">
<button routerLink="/home">Home</button>
<button *ngIf="!auth.isLoggedIn()" routerLink="/register">Register</button>
<button *ngIf="!auth.isLoggedIn()" routerLink="/login">Login</button>
<button *ngIf="auth.isLoggedIn()" (click)="auth.logout()">Logout</button>
</p>
4.1) Add in nav.component.ts file
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { AuthService } from '../auth.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-nav',
templateUrl: './nav.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./nav.component.css']
})
export class NavComponent implements OnInit {
constructor(public auth: AuthService) { }
ngOnInit() {
}
}
5) Create service page Add below code in authservice.ts
ng g service auth
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
@Injectable()
export class AuthService {
constructor(private myRoute: Router) { }
sendToken(token: string) {
localStorage.setItem("LoggedInUser", token)
}
getToken() {
return localStorage.getItem("LoggedInUser")
}
isLoggedIn() {
return this.getToken() !== null;
}
logout() {
localStorage.removeItem("LoggedInUser");
this.myRoute.navigate(["Login"]);
}
}
6) add content in login.ts
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { FormBuilder, Validators } from '@angular/forms';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
import { AuthService } from '../auth.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-login',
templateUrl: './login.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./login.component.css']
})
export class LoginComponent implements OnInit {
form;
constructor(private fb: FormBuilder,
private myRoute: Router,
private auth: AuthService) {
this.form = fb.group({
email: ['', [Validators.required, Validators.email]],
password: ['', Validators.required]
});
}
ngOnInit() {
}
login() {
if (this.form.valid) {
this.auth.sendToken(this.form.value.email)
this.myRoute.navigate(["home"]);
}
}
}
6.1) add in login.component.html page
<form [formGroup]="form" (ngSubmit)="login()">
<div>
<input type="email" placeholder="Email" formControlName="email" />
</div>
<div>
<input type="password" placeholder="Password" formControlName="password" />
</div>
<button type="submit" color="primary">Login</button>
</form>
7) Add below code in app.component.html
<app-nav></app-nav>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
