I’ve been implementing ng2-bootstrap and Angular2.
I cannot figure out how to make the mobile navbar open / close.
Is this something that just isn’t supported yet? Or am I missing something?
Update, html:
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="navbar-header">
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
<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="#">
<img src="/logo.png" />
</a>
</div>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li router-active>
<a [routerLink]=" ['Index'] ">Summary<span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
</li>
<li router-active>
<a [routerLink]=" ['Portfolio'] ">Portfolio<span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
</li>
<li router-active>
<a [routerLink]=" ['About'] ">About<span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
</li>
</ul>
<form class="navbar-form navbar-left" role="search">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
</form>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li dropdown keyboardNav="true">
<a href class="dropdown-toggle" role="button" aria-expanded="false" dropdownToggle>
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-user" aria-hidden="true"></span>

<span class="caret"></span>

<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
<li role="menuitem"><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Account Settings</a></li>
<li role="menuitem"><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li role="menuitem"><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
<li class="divider dropdown-divider"></li>
<li role="menuitem"><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Logout</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>

You need to include and use the collapse directive
first you import the directive
import { CollapseDirective } from 'ng2-bootstrap'
Include it in your components directives
@Component({ directives: [CollapseDirective] })
Edit: As pointed out by Akkusativobjekt in the comments, Directives (in the current stable version of angular 2) are no longer placed in the @Component attribute.
They are included in the NgModule attribute.
@NgModule({ declarations: [CollapseDirective] })
then in your controller create a variable to keep track of whether or not it’s collapsed
export class MyController {
public isCollapsed: boolean = true;
}
and in your template the line that looks like this
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" data-toggle="collapse" >
you’ll want to toggle the variable
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle collapsed" (click)="isCollapsed = !isCollapsed" >
And also in your template you’ll want to change the line that says
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
to include the directive
<div id="navbar" class="navbar-collapse collapse" [collapse]="isCollapsed">
Documentation for ng2-bootstrap collapse
Example of using the collapse directive in html
Documentation for NgModule
I was able to do this using straight bootstrap4/jquery within my angular2 project by adding the same data-toggle and data-target attributes to the collapsible target div:
I hope this might help someone as I struggled with this. Thanks to all above for putting me on the right track.
While Seth’s solution works absolutely fine as it is, I modified the collapsing logic. Instead of using the click event, I subscribe to the router events to collapse the menu only after successful navigation.
This is a limitation of navbar (https://github.com/valor-software/ngx-bootstrap/issues/540). So you need to manipulate the DOM element.
And on .ts file your minimal code shoul be:
