Step 3: Add Required Modules in app.module.ts

 

import { RouterModule, Routes } from ‘@angular/router’;

 

Add the routing paths,

 

const routes: Routes =[
{
path: ‘home’, component: HomeComponent
},
{
path: ‘register’, component: RegisterComponent
},
{
path: ‘login’, component: LoginComponent
}

 

 

Add the routes and RouterModule to import statement:

 

RouterModule.forRoot(routes)

 

 

Full app.module.ts file for your reference:

 

[html]

import { BrowserModule } from ‘@angular/platform-browser’;
import { NgModule } from ‘@angular/core’;
import { FormsModule } from ‘@angular/forms’;
import { HttpModule } from ‘@angular/http’;
import { RouterModule, Routes } from ‘@angular/router’;

import { AppComponent } from ‘./app.component’;
import { HomeComponent } from ‘./home/home.component’;
import { LoginComponent } from ‘./login/login.component’;
import { RegisterComponent } from ‘./register/register.component’;

const routes: Routes =[
{
path: ‘home’, component: HomeComponent
},
{
path: ‘register’, component: RegisterComponent
},
{
path: ‘login’, component: LoginComponent
}

]

@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
HomeComponent,
LoginComponent,
RegisterComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
HttpModule,RouterModule.forRoot(routes)
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

[/html]

 

 

Step 4: Add the navigational links in app.comonent.html

 

[html]

<h1>
{{title}}
</h1>
<a routerLink=”/login”>Login</a>
<a routerLink=”/home”>Home</a>
<a routerLink=”/register”>Register</a>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>

[/html]

 

 

<router-outlet></router-outlet> is the place where it displays the content of login/home/register links. 

 

 

Step 5: Verify the output
