I am trying to use isRouteActive
function to switch the active
class of the li
elements upon clicking the links contained within them, but it keeps giving me the errors like TypeError: Cannot read property 'isRouteActive' of undefined in [isRouteActive(['./Home']) in AppComponent@6:16]
. The file looks like the following:
import {Component} from 'angular2/core';
import {ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, RouteConfig, Router } from 'angular2/router';
import {FORM_PROVIDERS, FORM_DIRECTIVES, Control} from 'angular2/common';
import {LoginComponent} from './login.component.js';
import {HomeComponent} from './home.component.js';
@Component({
selector: 'front-page-app',
providers: [ FORM_PROVIDERS ],
directives: [ ROUTER_DIRECTIVES, FORM_DIRECTIVES ],
template: `
<div class="container">
<div class="header clearfix">
<nav>
<ul class="nav nav-pills pull-right">
<li #homeLink role="presentation"
[class.active]="isRouteActive(['./Home'])">
<a [routerLink]="['./Home']">Home</a>
</li>
<li #loginLink role="presentation"
[class.active]="isRouteActive(['./Login'])">
<a [routerLink]="['./Login']">Login</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
<h3 class="text-muted">Fomoapp</h3>
</div>
</div> <!-- /container -->
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
`
})
@RouteConfig([
{ path: '/login', component: LoginComponent, name: 'Login' },
{ path: '/home', component: HomeComponent, name: 'Home' },
{ path: '/', redirectTo: ['Home'] }
])
export class AppComponent {
public isRouteActive(route) {
return this.router.isRouteActive(this.router.generate(route))
}
}
I tried a variety of paths, like '/home', '#/home', '/Home', './Home', 'Home' but none of them work. What the error could be related to? And how to actually debug such situations?
