Usage

Import ng2-window module in your Angular app:

1import { Ng2WindowModule } from "ng2-window";

Then add Ng2WindowModule to your app's module imports:

1@NgModule({
2  imports: [
3      Ng2WindowModule, 
4      BrowserAnimationsModule // required for animations
5  ],
6})
7export class AppModule {}

Since > Angular 16, standalone is supported, you can set standalone to false to use ng-window component in your Angular template

1imports: [
2    Ng2WindowComponent,
3    DockComponent,
4    BrowserAnimationsModule // required for animations
5]

Once the module is installed, you can use WindowService to create window dynamically:

1import { Ng2WindowService } from "ng2-window";
2
3@Component({
4    selector: "app-root",
5    templateUrl: "./app.component.html",
6    styleUrls: ["./app.component.css"],
7    standalone: false,
8})
9export class AppComponent {
10    constructor(private windowService: Ng2WindowService) {}
11
12    windows: { [key: string]: {
13            window: Ng2WindowComponent,
14            visible: boolean
15        }
16    } = {};
17
18    openWindow(ref: TemplateRef<any>) {
19        this.windowService
20            .create({
21                title: "Window 1",
22                icon: "/assets/logo.png",
23                width: 800,
24                height: 500,
25                content: ref,
26                offsetX: 200,
27                offsetY: 100,
28                align: "leftTop",
29                bodyStyle: {
30                    lineHeight: "1.5",
31                },
32            })
33            .then((window: Ng2WindowComponent) => {
34                this.windows[window.id] = {
35                    window,
36                    visible: true,
37                };
38                window.onClose.subscribe(() => {
39                    this.windows[window.id].visible = false;
40                    this.windows[window.id].window = null;
41                });
42            });
43    }
