Novice.
I have an app.html that has two custom-elements:
<template>
<require from="../navmenu/navmenu.html"></require>
<require from="./app.css"></require>
<!--We want the nav bar to span the page-->
<div class="container-fluid">
<navmenu router.bind="router"></navmenu>
</div>
<!--We want the media to centre so we use just container-->
<div class="container">
<div className='col-sm-12'>
<div className='row'>
<router-view></router-view>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
The router is bound to the navmenu and so I have routing.
Because I have the following require with the extension .html:
<require from="../navmenu/navmenu.html"></require>
I do not have access to my viewmodel.
If I change the require by removing the .html I loose all my navbar items.
My navbar.ts is:
import { autoinject, bindable, bindingMode } from "aurelia-framework";
import { LoggedInService } from "../components/auth/LoggedInService";
import { customElement } from "aurelia-templating";
@autoinject
@customElement('navmenu')
export class Navmenu {
@bindable public isLoggedIn: boolean = false;
@bindable public userName: string = 'anonymous';
constructor(public loggedInService: LoggedInService) {
this.isLoggedIn = loggedInService.isAuthenticated();
this.userName = loggedInService.getUserName();
}
}
I have added "@binding" to the two variables I want to use but I have no access to them. I have looked at the guide for custom-elements but they are indicating I need to import
How do I access those variables without screwing up my navbar items? or..
How do I access the navmenu viewmodel when the view has been referenced with ".html".
Here is my navmenu.html:
<template bindable="router">
<require from="./navmenu.css"></require>
<div class="main-nav">
<div class="navbar navbar-inverse">
<div class="navbar-header">
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#/home">Jobsledger.API</a>
</div>
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li repeat.for="row of router.navigation" class="${ row.isActive ? 'link-active' : '' }">
<a href.bind="row.href" if.bind="!row.settings.nav">${ row.title }</a>
<a href.bind="row.href" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" role="button" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"
if.bind="row.settings.nav">
${row.title}
<span class="caret"></span>
</a>
<ul if.bind="row.settings.nav" class="dropdown-menu">
<li repeat.for="menu of row.settings.nav">
<a href.bind="menu.href">${menu.title}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
LoggedIn Value: ${ isLoggedIn }
</template>
