ngx-pipe
is a library of pipes for Angular, a popular web application framework.
Pipes in Angular are used to transform data before displaying it in the UI.
ngx-pipe
provides a set of commonly used pipes that can be easily integrated into an Angular application.
ngx-pipe
is a library for Angular applications that provides a set of pipes (filters) that can be used to transform data in templates. Pipes are a way to format and manipulate data in Angular templates without modifying the underlying data.
The ngx-pipe
library includes a variety of pipes for common data transformations such as formatting dates, numbers, and strings, filtering and sorting arrays, and transforming objects. Some of the popular pipes in ngx-pipe
are OrderByPipe
, FilterPipe
, GroupByPipe
, MaskPipe
, TruncatePipe
, SlugifyPipe
, and MomentPipe
.
To use ngx-pipe
, you need to install it using npm or yarn and then import the desired pipe into your Angular module. For example, to use the OrderByPipe
, you would import it in your module like this:
Some examples of pipes provided by ngx-pipe
include:
OrderByPipe
: sorts an array by a specified propertyFilterPipe
: filters an array based on specified criteriaGroupByPipe
: groups an array by a specified propertySumPipe
: calculates the sum of an array of numbersSafePipe
: sanitizes HTML content to prevent XSS attacksTimeAgoPipe
: displays a timestamp as a relative time (e.g. "2 hours ago")
To use ngx-pipe
in an Angular application, you can install it via npm and then import the desired pipes in your component's module. For example:
1. npm install ngx-pipe
2. import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { OrderByPipe } from 'ngx-pipe';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
//...
],
imports: [
//...
],
providers: [
OrderByPipe // <-- Add the pipe to the providers array
],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
You can then use the pipe in your component's template like this:
<ul> <li *ngFor="let item of items | orderBy:'name'">{{ item.name }}</li> </ul>
<ul> <li *ngFor="let item of items | filterBy:'name':searchTerm">{{ item.name }}</li> </ul>
This example uses the OrderByPipe
to sort an array of items by the name
property.
In the above examples, the orderBy
pipe is used to sort an array of items by their name
property, and the filterBy
pipe is used to filter an array of items based on a search term.
