I'm building an Angular 2 app which would have a side nav bar for screens wider than 500, and a bottom nav bar for screens less wide than 500. For now I was trying to assign a 20% width to the side bar, 80% to app content.
The problem that I have is that the router-outlet content (i.e. the actual app) takes up the full width of the page instead of just 80%. It seems to be ignoring any styling I try to give it. Are we not supposed to style router-outlet directly? Or perhaps there is a better way that I'm overlooking?
app.component.ts
import { Component, HostListener } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `
<div class="container-fluid">
<nav *ngIf="this.window.innerWidth > 500"></nav>
<router-outlet style="width:80%;float:right;"></router-outlet>
<nav *ngIf="this.window.innerWidth < 500"></nav>
`,
styleUrls: ['app/app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
window = [];
ngOnInit(): void {
this.window.innerWidth = window.innerWidth;
}
@HostListener('window:resize', ['$event'])
onResize(event) {
this.window.innerWidth = event.target.innerWidth;
console.log(this.window.innerWidth);
}
}
By using :host
we can modify the style while loading the component.
:host(selector) { width:70% }
Following is the component:
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'test-selector',
templateUrl: './test.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./test.component.css']
})
export class TestComponent{
}
//test.component.css content
:host(test-selector) { width:70% } will reduce the width to 70%
Use host:{'style':'width:70%'} within @Component({}) in the component file to set the width of child
