Angular 16 Routing and Navigation Example Tutorial

Hello Folks,

This simple article demonstrates of angular 16 routing module create. we will help you to give an example of how to create separate routing module in angular 16. This post will give you a simple example of how to make routing module in angular 16. you'll learn how to create router module in angular 16. Alright, let us dive into the details.

I will give you step-by-step instructions on how to create a module with routing in your angular 11 application. I will give you a very simple example so you can easily understand how it works.

In this example, I will simply create one admin module and inside the admin module, we will create a home, user, and post component that will call the module route file. you have to just follow a few steps and it will be done and layout will be as below:

Preview:

Step 1: Create New App

You can easily create your angular app using bellow command:

ng new my-module-app

Step 2: Create Admin Module

After creating successfully app, we need to create module using angular cli command. angular provide command to create module with routing in angular application. so let's run bellow command to create admin module:

ng g module admin --routing

run successfully command, it will create files as like bellow path:

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

Step 3: Create Component For Module

Now we will add new component to our admin module using bellow command, so let's create home, user and post component for admin module:

ng g component admin/home
ng g component admin/user
ng g component admin/post

run successfully command, it will create folder with files as like bellow path:

src/app/admin/home/*
src/app/admin/user/*
src/app/admin/post/*

There is html file to all three component. so you can simple update that file with your content to checking demo if you want.

Step 4: Add Route for Component

In this step, we will simply add route with created component. so we have to update our admin-routing module file as like bellow code:

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

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { Routes, RouterModule } from '@angular/router';
import { HomeComponent } from './home/home.component';
import { UserComponent } from './user/user.component';
import { PostComponent } from './post/post.component';
  
const routes: Routes = [
  {path : '', component : HomeComponent},
  {path : 'user', component : UserComponent},
  {path : 'post', component : PostComponent}
];
  
@NgModule({
  imports: [RouterModule.forChild(routes)],
  exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AdminRoutingModule { }

Step 5: Update Component HTML File

here, we have to update our app component html file, we need to add links of all route with router-outlet, so let's update it as like bellow:

I used bootstrap class on this file. so if you want to add than then follow this link too: Install Bootstrap 5 to Angular 16.

src/app/app.component.html

<div class="container">
  <nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-dark bg-primary">
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Admin Panel</a>
  
    <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarSupportedContent">
      <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
        <li class="nav-item active">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#home" routerLink="/">Home <span class="sr-only">(current)</span></a>
        </li>
        <li class="nav-item">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#user" routerLink="/user">User</a>
        </li>
        <li class="nav-item">
          <a class="nav-link" href="#post" routerLink="/post">Post</a>
        </li>
      </ul>
    </div>
  </nav>
</div>
   
<div class="container">
    <router-outlet></router-outlet>
</div>

Step 6: Import Module to module.ts file

In last step, we will simply import our module to module.ts file, so, let's update that file as like bellow:

src/app/app.module.ts

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
  
import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { AdminModule } from './admin/admin.module';
  
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    AppRoutingModule,
    AdminModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Run Angular App:

All the required steps have been done, now you have to type the given below command and hit enter to run the Angular app:

ng serve

Now, Go to your web browser, type the given URL and view the app output:

http://localhost:4200

I hope it can help you...
