Angular 10 + Django + MySQL CRUD Example – Client RestAPIs

This tutorial is part 3 of Django-Angular-MySQL series. Today, we will create Angular Client to make HTTP request & receive response from Django Server.

Angular Client Overview

Goal

The image below shows overview about Angular Components that we will create:

Project Structure

We have:
– 4 components: customers-list, customer-details, create-customer, search-customer.
– 3 modules: FormsModule, HttpClientModule, AppRoutingModule.
– customer.ts: class Customer (id, firstName, lastName)
– customer.service.ts: Service for Http Client methods
– app-routing.module.ts: Routing configuration

Setup Angular Project

Create Angular Project

Run command: ng new AngularDjango.

Create Service & Components

On Project folder, run commands below:
– ng g s customer
– ng g c create-customer
– ng g c customer-details
– ng g c customers-list
– ng g c search-customers
On each Component selector, delete app- prefix, then change tslint.json rules – "component-selector" to false.

Implement Angular Client App

Data Model

Create new file named customer.ts:

export class Customer {
    id: number;
    name: string;
    age: number;
    active: boolean;
}

Data Service

customer.service.ts

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class CustomerService {

  private baseUrl = 'http://localhost:8000/customers';

  constructor(private http: HttpClient) { }

  getCustomer(id: number): Observable<object width="300" height="150"> {
    return this.http.get(`${this.baseUrl}/${id}`);
  }

  createCustomer(customer: Object): Observable<object> {
    return this.http.post(`${this.baseUrl}/`, customer);
  }

  updateCustomer(id: number, value: any): Observable<object> {
    return this.http.put(`${this.baseUrl}/${id}`, value);
  }

  deleteCustomer(id: number): Observable<any> {
    return this.http.delete(`${this.baseUrl}/${id}`);
  }

  getCustomersList(): Observable<any> {
    return this.http.get(`${this.baseUrl}/`);
  }

  getCustomersByAge(age: number): Observable<any> {
    return this.http.get(`${this.baseUrl}/age/${age}/`);
  }

  deleteAll(): Observable<any> {
    return this.http.delete(`${this.baseUrl}/`);
  }
}

Components

Customer Details

customer-details/customer-details.component.ts

import { Component, OnInit, Input } from '@angular/core';
import { CustomerService } from '../customer.service';
import { Customer } from '../customer';

import { CustomersListComponent } from '../customers-list/customers-list.component';

@Component({
  selector: 'customer-details',
  templateUrl: './customer-details.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./customer-details.component.css']
})
export class CustomerDetailsComponent implements OnInit {

  @Input() customer: Customer;

  constructor(private customerService: CustomerService, private listComponent: CustomersListComponent) { }

  ngOnInit() {
  }

  updateActive(isActive: boolean) {
    this.customerService.updateCustomer(this.customer.id,
      { name: this.customer.name, age: this.customer.age, active: isActive })
      .subscribe(
        data => {
          console.log(data);
          this.customer = data as Customer;
        },
        error => console.log(error));
  }

  deleteCustomer() {
    this.customerService.deleteCustomer(this.customer.id)
      .subscribe(
        data => {
          console.log(data);
          this.listComponent.reloadData();
        },
        error => console.log(error));
  }

}

customer-details/customer-details.component.html

<div *ngIf="customer">
  <div>
    <label>Name: </label> {{customer.name}}
  </div>
  <div>
    <label>Age: </label> {{customer.age}}
  </div>
  <div>
    <label>Active: </label> {{customer.active}}
  </div>

  <span class="button is-small btn-primary" *ngIf='customer.active' (click)='updateActive(false)'>Inactive</span>

  <span class="button is-small btn-primary" *ngIf='!customer.active' (click)='updateActive(true)'>Active</span>

  <span class="button is-small btn-danger" (click)='deleteCustomer()'>Delete</span>

  <hr />
</div>

export class CustomersListComponent implements OnInit {

  customers: Observable;

  constructor(private customerService: CustomerService) { }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.reloadData();
  }

  deleteCustomers() {
    this.customerService.deleteAll()
      .subscribe(
        data => {
          console.log(data);
          this.reloadData();
        },
        error => console.log('ERROR: ' + error));

  reloadData() {
    this.customers = this.customerService.getCustomersList();
  }

}
