StrictAngularComponents

Code examples for writing Angular Components that are compliant with Typescript strict mode. Two sample apps for the approaches described under Template Type Checking.

In both demos you will see compilation errors when running npm run start as I have left examples that need fixing following the approaches outlined below.

Setter Getter Demo

Shows how to use Setters and Getters to perform input coercion now that Typescript 4.3 allows its setters and getters to have different types.

  @Input()
  get disabled(): boolean {
    return this._disabled;
  }
  set disabled(value: boolean | string) {
    this._disabled = (value === '') || value === true;
  }

ngAcceptInputType Demo

Before Angular 13 and Typescript 4.3 we had to use the static flag ngAcceptInputType_ to enable input coercion.

  @Input()
  public disabled: boolean = false;
  static ngAcceptInputType_disabled: boolean | '';
