Angular 2 - Check if image url is valid or broken

Question

I am fetching a large number of image URLs from an API and display them in a angular 2 web application. Some of the URLs are broken and i want to replace them with a default

Answer 1

My example on angular 4

<img [src]="img" (error)="img.src = errorImg" #img>

1. Where img - path to image;
2. error - error emmit
3. errorImg - path to default img
4. #img - link to img object

Answer 2

I use a base64 loading spinner:

<img [src]="photoContainer.photo.url | secure" onError="this.src='data:image/svg+xml;base64,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'">

Answer 3

this is my solution for fallback on multi images. we basically detach the ChangeDetector once we resolve the image so we can reduce CPU on vm check cycles once image is resolved.

import {Component, ChangeDetectionStrategy, ChangeDetectorRef} from 'angular2/core';
import {AppStore} from "angular2-redux-util/dist/index";



@Component({
    selector: 'logoCompany',
    changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.Default,
    template: `
            <div style="padding-top: 7px" > 
              <span style="color: gainsboro; font-family: Roboto">{{getBusinessInfo('companyName')}}</span>
              <!--<img style="width: 35px" class="img-circle" src="http://galaxy.example.me/Resources/Resellers/{{getBusinessInfo('businessId')}}/{{getBusinessInfo('fileName')}}" />-->
              <img style="width: 35px" class="img-circle" [src]="getImageUrl()" (load)="onImageLoaded()" (error)="onImageError()" />
            </div>
    `
})

export class LogoCompany {

    constructor(private cdr:ChangeDetectorRef) {    
    }
    private imageRetries:number = 0;
    private unsub;


    private detach() {
        this.cdr.detach();
    }

    private getImageUrl() {          
        var url = '';
        switch (this.imageRetries){
            case 0: {
                url = 'http://galaxy.example.me/Resources/Resellers/' + this.getBusinessInfo('businessId') + '/Logo.jpg'
                break;
            }
            case 1: {
                url = 'http://galaxy.example.me/Resources/Resellers/' + this.getBusinessInfo('businessId') + '/Logo.png'
                break;
            }
            default: {
                url = 'assets/person.png'
                break;
            }

        }
        return url;
    }

    private onImageLoaded() {
        this.detach();
    }

    private onImageError() {
        this.imageRetries++;
    }

    private getBusinessInfo(field):string {
          return '12345';
    }
