Note
You do not need to install every Angular NES package. Simply select the packages applicable to your project.
Angular Tools for Angular v9-12
If you are using Angular v9, v10, v11, or v12, include our angular-tools library in your package.json:
{
"scripts": {
"postinstall": "npx ngnes",
// ...etc.
},
"devDependencies": {
"@neverendingsupport/angular-tools": "1.1.4",
// ...etc.
}
}
The @neverendingsupport/angular-tools package has tools required for successfully installing and operating Never‑Ending Support in these versions of Angular.
Note
Please be sure to include the postinstall script, which automatically will run "npx ngnes" on install. This command in made available by the @neverendingsupport/angular-tools package. If postinstall scripts are disabled, you will need to run "npx ngnes" immediately after every install and before running "ng build".
Create The .npmrc
Replace <NES_ACCESS_TOKEN> with your access token.
@neverendingsupport:registry=https://registry.nes.herodevs.com/npm/pkg/
//registry.nes.herodevs.com/npm/pkg/:_authToken=<NES_ACCESS_TOKEN>
Note
Using Artifactory? See our Artifactory Instructions for setup and configuration details.
Install your dependencies
Install your dependencies, then build and run the service:
npm install
npx ng serve
And just like that, you're up and running with the Angular NES! ::
