Angular2 Localized URL, Named Routes - angularjs

We are currently trying to have named routes in our SPA. Depending on the language, we should have:
www.website.com/help
www.website.com/ayuda
www.website.com/hifen
Also, in our references, we should be able to configure:
href=“/help”
href=“/ayuda”
href="/hilfe"
Depending on the language
Does Angular2 router support this?
(if not, how can we achieve it?)

There is a package called localize-router which extends ng2-translate and should do exactly what you're looking for. Please have in mind that it's still in progress so it's probably not recommended for the production yet.
Please find it here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/localize-router
You can use pipes to translate route links
<a [routerLink]="['user', userId, 'profile'] | localize">{{'USER_PROFILE' | translate}}</a>
<a [routerLink]="['about' | localize]">{{'ABOUT' | translate}}</a>

Another package for the same purpose #ngx-i18n-router/core, works with static translations as well as providing route translations through http.
Check it here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/#ngx-i18n-router/core
supports lazy routes as well.
Pipe usage is same as above.

Chips autocomplete for Angular 1.6. No angular-material

I would need to add an autocomplete chips component in our Angular 1.6 application. We are using Typescript, Webpack 2. As we are already using angular-ui-bootstrap, we do not want to introduce also angular-material in order to avoid style conflicts. However the wished result is exactly what material chips provide.
Is there a directive or component that i can use in my case? I found this library but it runs endless exceptions when I import it.
unfortunately I could find only partial solutions with bootstrap typehead, but then I would need to implement all the "chips" part, making me think of re-inventing the wheel.
Stack Newb here. I have an identical problem as yours. Here's how I resolved this:
1. Resolve the ReferenceError: error is not defined within the angular-chips library
The library you used (angular-chips) wasn't designed with typescript in mind. So, you'll first need to resolve the following error ReferenceError: error is not defined by defining it for them in the line above with var error;. This should prepare angular-chips for your webpack useage.
The second issue you'll find is how to add your typeahead-template-url with webpack in the mix. Rather than referring to a separate html file, use an inline template as referenced here: Bootstrap-UI Typeahead display more than one property in results list?.
If you're lazy like me and don't want to follow that hyperlink, use this as example:
2. Template to be added before the <chips> tag:
<script type="text/ng-template" id="yourTemplate.html">
<a tabindex="-1">
<i ng-class="'icon-'+match.model.type"></i>
<span ng-bind-html-unsafe="match.model.title | typeaheadHighlight:query"></span>
</a>
</scrip>
3. Include template in your directive:
typeahead-template-url:"yourTemplate.html"
Worked like a charm for me.

Using ng-href as a filter function

Is there anyway to pass a string through ng-href and achieve the same result as if it was the value of that directive?
e.g.
{{ url | ng-href }}
So that way the filter or pipe sanitizes any values and conforms the proper url scheme.
Not quite clear what you're trying to achieve. But if you wanted to be able to convert a string in the model into the href attribute on a <a> tag - you may use smth like this $sce.trustAsUrl (angular site docs)
SCE assists in writing code in a way that (a) is secure by default and
(b) makes auditing for security vulnerabilities such as XSS,
clickjacking, etc. a lot easier.

OnsenUI loads page in text, via a splitter

I have previously created a web app, and now I would like to integrate it with OnsenUI to enable my app to be used on all mobile devices as well as the web.
I am using a splitter in a toolbar which will be the header of all pages, and it will redirect the user to other pages when they click an item in it. Clicking the home item successfully redirects to the home page (index, which is already loaded correctly). However, clicking any of the other items in the splitter redirects me to the requested page, but shows the content of the file in text format instead of actually rendering the page. It looks like the following, except it's all jumbled together with no spaces:
searchForTrainer.jade:
//-ons-template(id='searchForTrainer.jade')
ons-page(ng-controller='SearchController' ng-init='showme = false; getAllTrainers();')
ons-toolbar
.left
ons-toolbar-button(ng-click='mySplitter.left.open()')
ons-icon(icon='md-menu')
.center
| Search Trainer
// ***** I cut off the rest of the file for simplicity
// ***** I should still be able to see the toolbar if the page loads correctly
Here is the content of index.jade:

Has anyone successfully built an Onsen app using Jade?
UPDATE
When I leave the code in html instead of jade, everything works correctly. When I convert it back to jade it shows up as text again.
UPDATE 2
Using Solution 1 from the selected answer, I realized and solved my problem with the guidance from the selected answer on my other post:
Answer
By the looks of it you seem to be using Jade on the server side.
To solve the problem I see a couple possible solutions.
Solution 1:
Make sure that whatever Onsen UI is receiving is pure HTML. You're free to use Jade, but as it stands Onsen does not have Jade bundled inside, so there is no way for it to support it out of the box. However as long as Onsen sees only html it should be fine.
The reason why the ons-template(id='index.jade') works initially is actually because when you serve the page you are actually serving actual html, so when onsen starts the contents of that template are actually pure html.
In searchForTrainer.jade it seems that you are giving it raw jade, which it does not know how to handle. You can handle this on the server side, making sure that the request for the searchForTrainer returns html. Returning jade.renderFile('searchForTrainer.jade') from the server instead of the jade file itself should solve the issue.
Solution 2:
As you noticed as long the contents are inside the initial page everything will be fine. So you could just put all your ons-templates inside the initial page.
If you want to retain your current file structure you can just do
include searchForTrainer.jade
while having an ons-template tag in the file itself. That way in the end the result will be a page with the template already converted into html.
Solution 3:
The final option is to give the raw jade files, but help Onsen understand Jade, so that it can use them properly. To do that you need to include jade.js and modify Onsen UI so that it uses it.
However since Onsen does not currently provide an official API for switching template engines whatever hack we use now might break in the future. It's possible that in the near future a feature like that may be implemented, but in order to do it now we need to wrap some of onsen's internal functions.
Here's a simple example to do it.
module.run(function($onsen) {
var old = $onsen.normalizePageHTML;
ons._internal.normalizePageHTML = $onsen.normalizePageHTML = function(html) {
return old(jade.render(html, {}));
};
});
And here's also a working Demo showing this solution in action.
Note: that demo actually checks for a comment // jade at the beginning just to be safe.
Which solution to choose?
Solution 1 - I think this makes most sense as it retains a clear separation of concerns. If you want to change the templating engine it should be handled only in one place. Onsen does not need to know what you're using on the server as long as it gets what it wants.
Solution 2 - Not the best way to solve the problem, but it may be the easiest to use if you just want things to work. One minus is that with it you would load all the templates at the beginning, which may not be very good.
Solution 3 - While this solution can work I would suggest avoiding it as handling jade on the frontend would result in poor performance. It's could be an option if you actually decide not to rely on the server.

Angular2 RC1 multi level routerLink directive

still struggling with the new component router as of Angular2 RC.1.
My app's components are assembled in this manner:
Main
- NavigationBarComponent
- ContentComponent
- UserComponent
- UserSettingsComponent
- UserNotificationComponent
- CarComponent
- CarDetailsComponent
- ...
The routing works fine for ContentComponent and all its child components. The issue is creating routes within the NavigationBarComponent, which is a permanently visible component offering some shortcuts to components.
If I assemble a link from the NavigationBarComponent to the UserSettingsComponent, the route should look like this:
/user/:id/settings
I managed to create such a link with this:
<a [routerLink]="['/user/'+loggedInUser.id+'/settings']">
Concatening a link like this seems pretty ugly and wrong, though. I've tried a syntax like it was used in the deprecated routing of the beta versions
<a [routerLink]="['/user/:id/settings',{'id':loggedInUser.id}]">
but the output looked like this:
/user/:id/settings;id=56edad04c506d7e7963edd48
I couldn't find any examples for this requirement in the docs or live examples. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
It should be:
<a [routerLink]="['/user', 'loggedInUser.id', 'settings']">

ng-click as a class in AngularJS

I'm trying to work out why this doesn't work:
<a class="ng-click: loadSomeDatas();">Click here to load some datas</a>
But this does:
<a ng-click="loadSomeDatas()">Click here to load some datas</a>
Why are you using classes?
Well ng-* attributes don't play nice on some of the clients I have to support, thus rather than shimming them I'd rather just use good ol' safe classes.
This looks like a documentation error. According to the source code, it can only be used as an attribute. The link function does not use restrict so the default is "attribute only".
Can you try using "data-ng-click"? Angular will still work with data- appended before it's attribute names and this should be valid syntax in older browsers.
<a data-ng-click="loadSomeDatas()" href="#">Click here to load some datas</a>
