Angular 6 for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications

By: Doguhan Uluca

Overview of this book

Angular 6 for Enterprise-Ready Web Applications follows a hands-on and minimalist approach demonstrating how to design and architect high quality apps. The first part of the book is about mastering the Angular platform using foundational technologies. You will use the Kanban method to focus on value delivery, communicate design ideas with mock-up tools and build great looking apps with Angular Material. You will become comfortable using CLI tools, understand reactive programming with RxJS, and deploy to the cloud using Docker. The second part of the book will introduce you to the router-first architecture, a seven-step approach to designing and developing mid-to-large line-of-business applications, along with popular recipes. You will learn how to design a solid authentication and authorization experience; explore unit testing, early integration with backend APIs using Swagger and continuous integration using CircleCI. In the concluding chapters, you will provision a highly available cloud infrastructure on AWS and then use Google Analytics to capture user behavior. By the end of this book, you will be familiar with the scope of web development using Angular, Swagger, and Docker, learning patterns and practices to be successful as an individual developer on the web or as a team in the Enterprise.

Auth Service Fake and Common Testing Providers

We need to implement an AuthServiceFake so that our unit tests pass and use a pattern similar to commonTestingModules mentioned in Chapter 7, Create a Router-First Line-of-Business App, to conveniently provider this fake across our spec files.

To ensure that our fake will have the same public functions and properties as the actual AuthService, let's first start with creating an interface:

  1. Add IAuthService to auth.service.ts
src/app/auth/auth.service.ts

export interface IAuthService {
authStatus: BehaviorSubject<IAuthStatus>
login(email: string, password: string): Observable<IAuthStatus>
logout()
getToken(): string
}
  1. Make sure AuthService implements the interface
  2. Export defaultAuthStatus for reuse
src/app/auth/auth.service.ts

export
const defaultAuthStatus = {
isAuthenticated: false,
userRole: Role.None,
...
