I have a service defined in my Angular2 (2.0.0-beta.0) application. It's something like this:
import {Injectable} from "angular2/core";
@Injectable()
export class MyService {
constructor() {
}
getSomething() {
return 'something';
}
}
I have it listed in my bootstrap() function in my main app file so that it should be made available to my code in general:
bootstrap(App, [MyService, SomeOtherService, ROUTER_DIRECTIVES[);
Sometimes I can't use the service in a component, even though I have something like myService:MyService
in the component constructor()
function, like this:
import {MyService} from '../services/my.service';
@Component({
selector: 'my-component',
directives: [],
providers: [],
pipes: [],
template: `
<div><button (click)="doStuff()">Click Me!</button></div>
`
})
export MyComponent {
constructor(myService:MyService) {} // note the private keyword
doStuff() {
return this.myService.getSomething();
}
}
In other places it works fine. In places where it doesn't work, I get a message like if I try to access it:
EXCEPTION: TypeError: Cannot read property 'getSomething' of undefined
It basically means the service was not injected.
What is causing it to not be injected?
