  • ABP Framework version: v8.3.0
  • UI Type: Angular
  • Database System: EF Core (SQL Server)
  • Tiered (for MVC) or Auth Server Separated (for Angular): yes
  • Exception message and full stack trace: N/A
  • Steps to reproduce the issue:

In our Angular application we've defined our navigation items in src/app/route.provider.ts and defined our routes within src/app/app-routing.module.ts with additional child routes loaded from lazy-loaded modules referenced within it.

We're finding that items in the navigation menu that have sub-items don't stay open/expanded (as the out of the box Administration menu does) when visiting child routes. Possibly related, we note that the breadcrumbs rarely show the correct location either.

Are we missing something obvious here? Does this just not work with lazy-loaded routes?

    Hi,

    ABP routes are lazy load, too; you can check it.

    https://github.com/abpframework/abp/blob/dev/npm/ng-packs/packages/identity/src/lib/identity.module.ts#L68

    How do you defined your navigation items, could you show me the full steps?

    It looks like we're missing the forLazy() call from our module import, but it seems that's something we need to manually create on our modules and just looking at your link, I don't understand how to create this (in explanation, I don't understand what's happening in the forChild() call).

    Here's an anonymized sample of how we've set things up (routes and module names changed to protect our client). Apologies if some of this is implemented strangely; our team is somewhat inexperienced with Angular.

    Would this all work if we implemented and used forLazy() on all of our routing modules that do lazy loading?

    /src/app/app-routing.module.ts

    import { authGuard, permissionGuard } from '@abp/ng.core';
    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
    import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
    
    const routes: Routes = [
      // ... Removed default ABP routes
    
      // Custom routes
      { 
        path: 'module1', 
        loadChildren: () => import('./modules/module1/module1.module').then(m => m.Module1),
      },
      {
        path: 'module2', 
        loadChildren: () => import('./modules/module2/module2.module').then(m => m.Module2),
      },
      {
        path: 'module3', 
        loadChildren: () => import('./modules/module3/module3.module').then(m => m.Module3),
      },
      {
        path: 'module4', 
        loadChildren: () => import('./modules/module4/module4.module').then(m => m.Module4),
      },
    ];
    
    @NgModule({
      imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes, { bindToComponentInputs: true })],
      exports: [RouterModule],
    })
    export class AppRoutingModule {}  
    

    /src/app/modules/module1/module1-routing.module.ts

    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
    import { permissionGuard } from '@abp/ng.core';
    import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
    
    const routes: Routes = [
      {
        path: '',
        children: [
          {
            path: 'page1',
            loadChildren: () => import('./module1/page1.module').then(m => m.Page1Module), // Has own routing that exposes child routes for CRUD operations (list, edit, create, update)
          },
          {
            path: 'page2',
            loadChildren: () => import('./module1/page2.module').then(m => m.Page2Module), // Has own routing that exposes child routes for CRUD operations (list, edit, create, update)
            
          },
          // ... snip ...
        ]
      }
    ];
    
    @NgModule({
      imports: [RouterModule.forChild(routes)],
      exports: [RouterModule]
    })
    export class Module1RoutingModule { }
    
    

    /src/app/route.provider.ts

    import { RoutesService, eLayoutType } from '@abp/ng.core';
    import { APP_INITIALIZER } from '@angular/core';
    
    export const APP_ROUTE_PROVIDER = [
      { provide: APP_INITIALIZER, useFactory: configureRoutes, deps: [RoutesService], multi: true },
    ];
    
    function configureRoutes(routes: RoutesService) {
      return () => {
        routes.add([
          {
            path: '/',
            name: '::Menu:Home',
            iconClass: 'fas fa-home',
            order: 1,
            layout: eLayoutType.application,
          },
          {
            path: '/dashboard',
            name: '::Menu:Dashboard',
            iconClass: 'fas fa-chart-line',
            order: 2,
            layout: eLayoutType.application,
            
          },
          {
            name: '::Menu:Module1',
            order: 3,
            iconClass: 'fa fa-gear',
            layout: eLayoutType.application,
          },
          {
            path: '/module1/page1',
            name: 'M1P1',                        
            parentName: '::Menu:Module1',
            order: 1,
            iconClass: 'fas fa-table',
            layout: eLayoutType.application,
          },
          {
            path: '/module1/page2',
            name: 'M1P2',
            parentName: '::Menu:Module1', 
            iconClass: 'fas fa-table',
            order: 2,
            layout: eLayoutType.application,
          },  
          // ... snip ...
        ]);
      };
    }

    Not related to this, forlazy is used to configure some services.

    Could you please share a test project with me? i will check it. thanks shiwei.liang@volosoft.com

    Sorry for the delay, I've been quite busy with competing priorities. I'll get you this test project as soon as I can, but wanted to check in and ensure this ticket doesn't get closed before I get a chance.

    Hi Liang Shiwei,

    I tried to email you, but it was rejected by the mail server. I've sent the file as a Google Drive share instead.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    This is not about lazy load.

    This is because of your route path,they do not match

    Ah, that makes complete sense. Thank you!

    I wonder, though: is there any ability to highlight the menu item for child routes? As in my example, we usually have /list and /detail child routes. It would be nice to be able to set a menu item "Page 1" with a path of "/module1/page1" and have it be marked as active if we're at either "/module1/page1/list" or "/module1/page1/detail".
