Installation and Configuration

Netlify automatically detects Angular projects and sets up the latest version of this plugin. There's no further configuration needed from Netlify users.

Manual Installation

If you need to pin down this plugin to a fixed version, install it manually.

Create a netlify.toml in the root of your project. Your file should include the plugins section below:

[[plugins]]
  package = "@netlify/angular-runtime"

Install it via your package manager:

npm install -D @netlify/angular-runtime
# or
yarn add -D @netlify/angular-runtime

Read more about file-based plugin installation in our docs.

Accessing Request and Context during Server-Side Rendering

During server-side rendering (SSR), you can access the incoming Request object and the Netlify-specific Context object via providers:

import type { Context } from "@netlify/edge-functions"

export class FooComponent {

  constructor(
    // ...
    @Inject('netlify.request') @Optional() request?: Request,
    @Inject('netlify.context') @Optional() context?: Context,
  ) {
    console.log(`Rendering Foo for path ${request?.url} from location ${context?.geo?.city}`)
    // ...
  }
  
}

Keep in mind that these will not be available on the client-side or during prerendering.

To test this in local development, run your Angular project using netlify serve:

netlify serve

Limitations

• The server.ts file that's part of the Angular scaffolding is meant for deploying to a VM, and is not compatible with this Netlify build plugin. If you applied changes to that file, you'll need to replicate them in an Edge Function. See (#135)[netlify#135] for an example.

CLI Usage

Requirements

To use the Angular Runtime while building and deploying with the CLI, you need to have netlify-cli v17.0.0 installed (or a later version).

Please also make sure to use ntl deploy --build (rather than ntl build && ntl deploy).
