How To Detect Online Connectivity in Angular Application

We will create a small and easy Angular application to check if user is connected to Internet or not with the use of Angular Material.

Create a Snackbar to check whether a user is online or offline in Angular in a minute! A small and easy Angular application to check if user is connected to Internet or not with use of Angular material

First of all you have to install a packaged called ng-connection-service. Lets see how do we do that.

Create new Angular application using CLI

_ng new Online_

Install the ng-connection-service package inside the application from the CLI using:

_npm install ng-connection-service — save_

Once if you done this process please check your package.json whether it is added or not

You should see something like below,

package.json

now, time to install Angular Material into your project using CLI

npm install — save @angular/material @angular/cdk @angular/animations

now, import it in app.component.ts like below:

import {MatSnackBar,MatSnackBarConfig,MatSnackBarHorizontalPosition,MatSnackBarVerticalPosition} from ‘@angular/material’;

Let us finally inject the service inside the component. If you are familiar with service, you’d know that to inject a service, we go to the constructor of the component class and inject it as follows:

constructor(private connectionService: ConnectionService, public snackbar: MatSnackBar){
});

now the time for write logic of checking the internet connectivity. See the code below:

app.component.ts

Final result look like:

final output

Conclusion

Here you can see whenever I turned off my wifi connection Snackbar pop up in bottom and show OFFLINE Status. Thus in this article we have learnt how we can detect internet connection status in an Angular Application. Thank you for reading!

Understand Angular’s forRoot and forChild

  forRoot   /   forChild   is a pattern for singleton services that most of us know from routing. Routing is actually the main use case for it and as it is not commonly used outside of it, I wouldn’t be surprised if most Angular developers haven’t given it a second thought. However, as the official Angular documentation puts it: “Understanding how  forRoot()  works to make sure a service is a singleton will inform your development at a deeper level.” So let’s go. Providers & Injectors Angular comes with a dependency injection (DI) mechanism. When a component depends on a service, you don’t manually create an instance of the service. You  inject  the service and the dependency injection system takes care of providing an instance. import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core'; import { TestService } from 'src/app/services/test.service'; @Component({ selector: 'app-test', templateUrl: './test.component.html', styleUrls: ['./test.compon...

How to solve Puppeteer TimeoutError: Navigation timeout of 30000 ms exceeded

During the automation of multiple tasks on my job and personal projects, i decided to move on  Puppeteer  instead of the old school PhantomJS. One of the most usual problems with pages that contain a lot of content, because of the ads, images etc. is the load time, an exception is thrown (specifically the TimeoutError) after a page takes more than 30000ms (30 seconds) to load totally. To solve this problem, you will have 2 options, either to increase this timeout in the configuration or remove it at all. Personally, i prefer to remove the limit as i know that the pages that i work with will end up loading someday. In this article, i'll explain you briefly 2 ways to bypass this limitation. A. Globally on the tab The option that i prefer, as i browse multiple pages in the same tab, is to remove the timeout limit on the tab that i use to browse. For example, to remove the limit you should add: await page . setDefaultNavigationTimeout ( 0 ) ;  COPY SNIPPET The setDefaultNav...
