How to Share Angular Components Between Projects and Apps

Originally published by  Eden Ella at dev.to

Angular lets you build your apps through modular components, which are the most basic UI building block of an Angular app. When building multiple Angular projects or applications, components can be shared and reused between them, to speed development and build better modular apps.

In this post, we’ll see how to share your Angular components between different projects. We will use bit (GitHub) to seamlessly isolate and pack components from existing projects, and bit.dev to share them between multiple projects and applications. When done, your components will also be available for your team to discover, use and even develop anywhere.

You can learn more about sharing NG components using Bit here, or try the hands-on tutorial for yourself. Feel free to keep reading below to get started, and don’t hesitate to ask anything :)

Why use Bit to share Angular components?

Using Bit you can quickly isolate components from any project, with all their setup and dependencies, and use them across different projects and apps. This means more components shared, and less overhead for the devs sharing them.

For example, here is the popular ngx-bootstrap library on GitHub. Using Bit, and in a few minutes, it’s shared as a collection of components in bit.dev. You can do the same for your team’s components, to collaborate and build apps.

Angular components: easily share across projects

You can search and discover your components, view visual snapshots and filters components by bundle-size and dependencies to find the right code.

Search components by context, dependencies, and bundle-size

You can try each component in a live playground before choosing to use it in your project. This is useful for collaborating on many components as a team.

Try each component hands-on before installing it

Then, you can install each component in your project with NPM/Yarn, and even use Bit to develop and update it right from any consuming project (:0).

Go ahead and get started, or explore components in the bit.dev community.

Let’s get started

Let’s see a hands-on example of sharing a component between two Angular applications. The same goes for 100 components, and it’s just as easy.

Note that it’s recommended to wrap each component in a ngModule. You can find more recommended guidelines and best practices here, and here’s a useful tutorial to help you get started with a demo application:

*Bit with Angular Tutorial *

*Angular support is in public beta. Everything should work fine, but please do share any issues and feedback…*docs.bit.dev

Setup Bit

To get started, go ahead and install bit-cli, then head over to the project from which to share the components, and initialize a bit workspace.

$ npm install bit-bin -g
$ cd project-directory
$ bit init

Then, head over to **bit.dev and create a free account. Then, **create a collection to host your shared components. For this tutorial, you can name your new shared collection “angular-tutorial”.

Once done, authenticate bit-cli to your bit.dev account.

$ bit login

Share an Angular component

Ok, now you’re all ready to get started. To help you get started, here’s a hands-on tutorial for sharing an Angular component between two applications.

Clone the demo app

This tutorial is based on Angular 8. To run this tutorial, clone and setup the Angular tutorial project: https://github.com/teambit/bit-angular-tutorial

$ git clone https://github.com/teambit/bit-angular-tutorial
$ cd bit-angular-tutorial
$ npm install

We will share the **product-list component** from the Angular tutorial project, and use it in another application. When done, the component will be available in bit.dev for your team to discover, use and develop in their own projects.

Track the product-list component

Bit’s commands are very much Git-like, for ease of use.

Let’s use the bit add command to track the product-list component. We need to let Bit know where is the component and which files are related to it. As all the files are located under the product-list directory, the simplest way is to add all files in the directory to your component. Bit will name it accordingly.

For Angular components, we also need to specify the component entry point, which in most cases will be the file containing the ngModule. In this case, it is the product-list.module.tsfile.

Run the following command:

$ bit add src/app/product-list  --main src/app/product-list/product-list.module.ts
tracking component product-list:

added src/app/product-list/product-list.component.css

added src/app/product-list/product-list.component.html

added src/app/product-list/product-list.component.ts

added src/app/product-list/product-list.module.ts

added src/app/product-list/products.ts

That’s it. Bit identified the component with all its files, defined any dependencies as part of the component and started tracking it.

You can make sure that all the files required for the component were properly added by using bit status:

$ bit status

new components

 > product-list ... ok

Note: In this case the products.ts file was added to the component. If it is used by other components too, turn it into a component which will become a dependency of the product-list and other components.

Install the Angular compiler

So far, we have provided Bit with the source file of the component. But in order to consume the files in other projects, the component needs to be built.

Bit has a large collection of compilers to choose from (you can add your own). For building the Angular component, you’ll need the Angular compiler.

compilers/angular - envs · Bit

*Please note, this environment is still experimnental, use this with caution. Works with bit version >= 14.2.3 Bit…*bit.dev

Install the compiler by running this command inside the tutorial repository:

$ bit import bit.envs/compilers/angular --compiler

the following component environments were installed

bit.envs/compilers/angular@0.1.2

Versions may slightly vary when you run the tutorial.

The Angular compiler is now set as the default compiler for the Bit workspace. You can check the package.json and verify that the compiler is installed by locating the following entry in the Bit section:

“env”: {

“compiler”: “bit.envs/compilers/angular@0.1.2”

},

To build your component, run this command inside your project:

$ bit build

This results in the component name (product-list) followed by a list of file names. Those are the built files of your the component 👍

Export the component to bit.dev

With the component now properly built, it is now time to share it with the world. Components are versioned according to semver standards. To Tag your component with a version, run the following command:

$ bit tag --all 0.0.1

1 component(s) tagged

new components

> product-list@0.0.1

This command tags all the components that are currently staged in Bit’s workspace. In our case, it’s only the product-list component.

You can run bit status to validate the versioned components.

$ bit status

staged components

 > product-list. versions: 0.0.1 ... ok

The important thing to notice here is that the component is considered staged. That means that it is now ready to be exported. Next, you can export the component to your bit.dev collection:

$ bit export <username>.angular-tutorial

exported 1 components to collection <username>.angular-tutorial

The component is now visible in your collection on bit.dev. You can access it in https://bit.dev//angular-tutorial. You can also visit the component created for this demo on: https://bit.dev/bit/angular-tutorial

Checking now the component’s status will no longer display the component in the local workspace, as it is now hosted in the remote bit.dev collection:

$ bit status

nothing to tag or export

If you want to see all your components and their versions you can run:

$ bit list

Right now, the component code is still in your local project (and should be committed to your source control), but it is also available for other projects.

Preview the component in bit.dev

The Angular component is also available on the bit.dev cloud. Go to https://bit.dev and log into your account (if you are not logged in yet):

1. Select the collections navigator on the left panel and select collections.
2. Click on your collection you׳ll see your component product-list.
3. Click on the product-list component to see it’s live playground.

The component playground provides you with a basic Angular app (you may recognize the sample as the app provided by Angular CLI). We will modify this application to display the product-list component.

Edit the component example

The component is automatically recognized as an Angular component. We will modify the app.module.ts file to import our product-list module.

Change this line:

import ProductList from ‘@bit/.angular-tutorial.product-list’;

Into this line:

import {ProductListModule} from ‘@bit/.angular-tutorial.product-list’;

Add the module to the Module’s imports section:

imports: [

BrowserModule,

ProductListModule

],

The app.module.ts should look like this:

import { BrowserModule } from ‘@angular/platform-browser’;

import { NgModule } from ‘@angular/core’;

import { AppComponent } from ‘./app.component’;

import { ProductListModule } from ‘@bit/bit.angular-tutorial.product-list’;

@NgModule({

declarations: [

AppComponent,

],

imports: [

BrowserModule,

ProductListModule

],

providers: [],

bootstrap: [AppComponent]

})

export class AppModule { }

Modify the app.component.html and replace its contents with:

<app-product-list></app-product-list>

Save the example. In a few seconds, you will see the component rendered in the playground. You can view an example here.

Install the component in a different project

You are now going to create another Angular application and use the product-list component in this new application.

Create a New Angular Application

The fastest way to do that is by using the Angular CLI to generate a new Application. Switch to a new directory.

If you already have the Angular-cli installed globally you can just run:

$ ng new my-new-app

If you do not have the angular-cli installed globally and you do not want to install it, you can use npx to install it temporarily:

$ npx --package @angular/cli ng new my-new-app

For the purpose of this demo, you can skip router and select css for styling. In your terminal, switch to the my-new-app directory.

Install the component using npm/yarn

Use your favorite package installer (npm or yarn) to install the component. The component is stored in the bit.dev registry, so the full path to the component will be: @bit/…

Run the install command using npm:

$ npm install @bit/<username>.angular-tutorial.product-list --save

The component is now added to your package.json:

“@bit/<username>.angular-tutorial.product-list”: “0.0.1”

Use the component in the new application

Now you can use the component in your code, as any import. Add it as a module to the top-level app module and use it on the app page. We will make the same changes in the code as we did on the playground in the application:

// app.module.ts

import { ProductListModule } from ‘@bit/<username>.angular-tutorial.product-list’;

Add the ProductListModule in your app module imports section:

imports: [

BrowserModule,

ProductListModule

],

All is left now is to add the product-list component to the app html file. You can replace all existing content with the line above, or add it on the html page.

// src/app/app.component.html

<app-product-list></app-product-list>

Last, but not least, run your application using Angular CLI:

$ npm run start

Awesome! you can now see the components list inside the newly created application. You’ve just shared a component from one project to another 🎊

Do the same for many components, and invite your team to collaborate…

Modify the component from the consuming project

Bit has a unique ability: it lets you develop and update components from any project using them. This is very useful to speed development, as it enables you and your team members to collaborate and suggest updates as needed.

We are going to make a change to the component and export it back to the collection. We will add a View button to the product list. For simplicity, it will only show an alert saying the product is viewed.

Import the component

So far, the product-list component was only installed (in its built form) in our project. Now, we want to import the code into our project and make changes.

In order to import the component, initiate a Bit workspace in the new my-new-app project:

$ bit init

Then run the following command (also available on the component page):

$ bit import <username>.angular-tutorial/product-list

bit import bit.angular-tutorial/product-list

successfully imported one component


added bit.angular-tutorial/product-list new versions: 0.0.1, currently used version 0.0.1

Notifications on missing core dependencies are ok. You should already have those packages in your project.

You will get a message that the @angular/core and @angular/common are peer dependencies. This is ok, as your my-new-app project already contains them.

Here is what happened:

• A new top-level components folder is created that includes the code of the component and its compiled code and nodemodules (in this case the nodemodules are empty, as all of your node_modules are peer dependencies and are taken from the root project.
• The .bitmap file was modified to include the reference to the component
• The package.json file is modified to point to the files rather than the remote package. Your package.json now displays:
• “@bit/.angular-tutorial.product-list”: “file:./components/product-list”

Start your application to make sure it still works (that is true, no changes are required. Bit takes care of everything).

Update the code

Let’s modify the product-list component. Change the components/product-list/product-list.component.ts to include the following method:

view() {

window.alert(‘The product has been viewed!’);

}

Change the components/product-list/product-list.component.html to include the following part after the share button:

<button (click)=“view()”>

View

</button>

Change the css to contain a margin on the button:

margin: 4px;

Run the Angular application:

$ npm run start

The app is not yet changed. The Bit components are compiled by the bit compiler. In a separate terminal, run the bit build command to compile the changes. You should see that the compiler is installed:

successfully installed the bit.envs/compilers/angular@0.1.2 compiler

Followed by a successful compilation of all the files.

Your angular project will refresh, and you can now see the changed component with the view button.

In a real project, it is recommended to commit those changes to your GitHub repository.

Export the changes

Next, export the changes done to the component back to bit.dev.

$ bit status

The product-list component was modified:

modified components

> product-list … ok

Tag and export the component as a new version. By default this is a semver patch version:

$ bit tag product-list

1 component(s) tagged



changed components

(components that got a version bump)

> <username>.angular-tutorial/product-list@0.0.2

Export it back to the collection:

$ bit export <username>.angular-tutorial

exported 1 components to scope <username>.angular-tutorial

Head to the component page on bit.dev, here you can see that the component has a new version. The changes are also visible on the component playground.

Update the changes in the original project

In this last stage, you are going to import the changes to the original project, switch back to Angular-tutorial.

Import changes

Run bit import to see if any components were changed (similar to doing git pull to check git changes).

we will see that the product-list component was changed and a new version exists:

$ bit import

successfully imported one component



updated <username>.angular-tutorial/product-list new versions: 0.0.2

The component is downloaded but is not yet changed. Check the workspace status, you will get the following:

$ bit status

pending updates

> <username>.angular-tutorial/product-list current: 0.0.1 latest: 0.0.2

Checkout

Merge the changes done to the component to your project. The structure of the command is bit checkout . So you run:

$ bit checkout 0.0.2 product-list

successfully switched <username>.angular-tutorial/product-list to version 0.0.2

updated src/app/product-list/product-list.component.css

updated src/app/product-list/product-list.component.html

updated src/app/product-list/product-list.component.ts

updated src/app/product-list/product-list.module.ts

updated src/app/product-list/products.ts

Bit is performing a git merge, so the code from the updated component will now be merged into your code. Run the app again, to see it is working properly with the updated component:

$ npm run start

That is it. A change was moved and synced between the two projects. Your application is now running with an updated component….

Some guidelines for Angular with bit…

Bit’s team worked together with the Angular team to define some best practices for sharing reusable components. You can find these best practices in this link here. If you have any questions don’t hesitate, just ask for help :)

Conclusion

Sharing component between your Angular applications means you can build modular applications that leverage code-reuse and composition, therefore they are easier and faster to build while also simpler to maintain.

Bit lets your team avoid the overhead around publishing components at any scale, provides a universal discovery hub for your team, and lets you modify and update components from any of your projects to collaborate together.

The reusable nature of angular components plays well with Bit’s advantages, to help you and your team successfully share code. It works well with a component library or directly between your apps, so it’s up to you…

10 Writing steps to create a good project brief - Mobile app development

Developing a mobile application can often be more challenging than it seems at first glance. Whether you’re a developer, UI designer, project lead or CEO of a mobile-based startup, writing good project briefs prior to development is pivotal. According to Tech Jury, 87% of smartphone users spend time exclusively on mobile apps, with 18-24-year-olds spending 66% of total digital time on mobile apps. Of that, 89% of the time is spent on just 18 apps depending on individual users’ preferences, making proper app planning crucial for success.

Today’s audiences know what they want and don’t want in their mobile apps, encouraging teams to carefully write their project plans before they approach development. But how do you properly write a mobile app development brief without sacrificing your vision and staying within the initial budget? Why should you do so in the first place? Let’s discuss that and more in greater detail.

Why a Good Mobile App Project Brief Matters?

It’s worth discussing the significance of mobile app project briefs before we tackle the writing process itself. In practice, a project brief is used as a reference tool for developers to remain focused on the client’s deliverables. Approaching the development process without written and approved documentation can lead to drastic, last-minute changes, misunderstanding, as well as a loss of resources and brand reputation.

For example, developing a mobile app that filters restaurants based on food type, such as Happy Cow, means that developers should stay focused on it. Knowing that such and such features, UI elements, and API are necessary will help team members collaborate better in order to meet certain expectations. Whether you develop an app under your brand’s banner or outsource coding and design services to would-be clients, briefs can provide you with several benefits:

• Clarity on what your mobile app project “is” and “isn’t” early in development
• Point of reference for developers, project leads, and clients throughout the cycle
• Smart allocation of available time and resources based on objective development criteria
• Streamlined project data storage for further app updates and iterations

Writing Steps to Create a Good Mobile App Project Brief

1. Establish the “You” Behind the App

Depending on how “open” your project is to the public, you will want to write a detailed section about who the developers are. Elements such as company name, address, project lead, project title, as well as contact information, should be included in this introductory segment. Regardless of whether you build an in-house app or outsource developers to a client, this section is used for easy document storage and access.

Best Electric Bikes and Scooters for Rental Business or Campus Facility

The electric scooter revolution has caught on super-fast taking many cities across the globe by storm. eScooters, a renovated version of old-school scooters now turned into electric vehicles are an environmentally friendly solution to current on-demand commute problems. They work on engines, like cars, enabling short traveling distances without hassle. The result is that these groundbreaking electric machines can now provide faster transport for less — cheaper than Uber and faster than Metro.

Since they are durable, fast, easy to operate and maintain, and are more convenient to park compared to four-wheelers, the eScooters trend has and continues to spike interest as a promising growth area. Several companies and universities are increasingly setting up shop to provide eScooter services realizing a would-be profitable business model and a ready customer base that is university students or residents in need of faster and cheap travel going about their business in school, town, and other surrounding areas.

Electric Scooters Trends and Statistics

In many countries including the U.S., Canada, Mexico, U.K., Germany, France, China, Japan, India, Brazil and Mexico and more, a growing number of eScooter users both locals and tourists can now be seen effortlessly passing lines of drivers stuck in the endless and unmoving traffic.

A recent report by McKinsey revealed that the E-Scooter industry will be worth― $200 billion to $300 billion in the United States, $100 billion to $150 billion in Europe, and $30 billion to $50 billion in China in 2030. The e-Scooter revenue model will also spike and is projected to rise by more than 20% amounting to approximately $5 billion.

And, with a necessity to move people away from high carbon prints, traffic and congestion issues brought about by car-centric transport systems in cities, more and more city planners are developing more bike/scooter lanes and adopting zero-emission plans. This is the force behind the booming electric scooter market and the numbers will only go higher and higher.

Companies that have taken advantage of the growing eScooter trend develop an appthat allows them to provide efficient eScooter services. Such an app enables them to be able to locate bike pick-up and drop points through fully integrated google maps.

List of Best Electric Bikes for Rental Business or Campus Facility 2020:

It’s clear that e scooters will increasingly become more common and the e-scooter business model will continue to grab the attention of manufacturers, investors, entrepreneurs. All this should go ahead with a quest to know what are some of the best electric bikes in the market especially for anyone who would want to get started in the electric bikes/scooters rental business.

We have done a comprehensive list of the best electric bikes! Each bike has been reviewed in depth and includes a full list of specs and a photo.

How to start an electric scooter facility/fleet in a university campus/IT park

Are you leading an organization that has a large campus, e.g., a large university? You are probably thinking of introducing an electric scooter/bicycle fleet on the campus, and why wouldn’t you?

Introducing micro-mobility in your campus with the help of such a fleet would help the people on the campus significantly. People would save money since they don’t need to use a car for a short distance. Your campus will see a drastic reduction in congestion, moreover, its carbon footprint will reduce.

Micro-mobility is relatively new though and you would need help. You would need to select an appropriate fleet of vehicles. The people on your campus would need to find electric scooters or electric bikes for commuting, and you need to provide a solution for this.

To be more specific, you need a short-term electric bike rental app. With such an app, you will be able to easily offer micro-mobility to the people on the campus. We at Devathon have built Autorent exactly for this.

What does Autorent do and how can it help you? How does it enable you to introduce micro-mobility on your campus? We explain these in this article, however, we will touch upon a few basics first.

Micro-mobility: What it is

You are probably thinking about micro-mobility relatively recently, aren’t you? A few relevant insights about it could help you to better appreciate its importance.

Micro-mobility is a new trend in transportation, and it uses vehicles that are considerably smaller than cars. Electric scooters (e-scooters) and electric bikes (e-bikes) are the most popular forms of micro-mobility, however, there are also e-unicycles and e-skateboards.

You might have already seen e-scooters, which are kick scooters that come with a motor. Thanks to its motor, an e-scooter can achieve a speed of up to 20 km/h. On the other hand, e-bikes are popular in China and Japan, and they come with a motor, and you can reach a speed of 40 km/h.

You obviously can’t use these vehicles for very long commutes, however, what if you need to travel a short distance? Even if you have a reasonable public transport facility in the city, it might not cover the route you need to take. Take the example of a large university campus. Such a campus is often at a considerable distance from the central business district of the city where it’s located. While public transport facilities may serve the central business district, they wouldn’t serve this large campus. Currently, many people drive their cars even for short distances.

As you know, that brings its own set of challenges. Vehicular traffic adds significantly to pollution, moreover, finding a parking spot can be hard in crowded urban districts.

Well, you can reduce your carbon footprint if you use an electric car. However, electric cars are still new, and many countries are still building the necessary infrastructure for them. Your large campus might not have the necessary infrastructure for them either. Presently, electric cars don’t represent a viable option in most geographies.

As a result, you need to buy and maintain a car even if your commute is short. In addition to dealing with parking problems, you need to spend significantly on your car.

All of these factors have combined to make people sit up and think seriously about cars. Many people are now seriously considering whether a car is really the best option even if they have to commute only a short distance.

This is where micro-mobility enters the picture. When you commute a short distance regularly, e-scooters or e-bikes are viable options. You limit your carbon footprints and you cut costs!

Businesses have seen this shift in thinking, and e-scooter companies like Lime and Bird have entered this field in a big way. They let you rent e-scooters by the minute. On the other hand, start-ups like Jump and Lyft have entered the e-bike market.

Think of your campus now! The people there might need to travel short distances within the campus, and e-scooters can really help them.

How micro-mobility can benefit you

What advantages can you get from micro-mobility? Let’s take a deeper look into this question.

Micro-mobility can offer several advantages to the people on your campus, e.g.:

• Affordability: Shared e-scooters are cheaper than other mass transportation options. Remember that the people on your campus will use them on a shared basis, and they will pay for their short commutes only. Well, depending on your operating model, you might even let them use shared e-scooters or e-bikes for free!
• Convenience: Users don’t need to worry about finding parking spots for shared e-scooters since these are small. They can easily travel from point A to point B on your campus with the help of these e-scooters.
• Environmentally sustainable: Shared e-scooters reduce the carbon footprint, moreover, they decongest the roads. Statistics from the pilot programs in cities like Portland and Denver showimpressive gains around this key aspect.
• Safety: This one’s obvious, isn’t it? When people on your campus use small e-scooters or e-bikes instead of cars, the problem of overspeeding will disappear. you will see fewer accidents.
