Dynamic module/service configuration and AOT

问题

I need to have some Angular services configured dynamically, depending on a runtime switch. In days before AOT, I got it to work using the following code:

@NgModule({
  imports: [HttpModule],
  providers: []
})
export class MyModule {
  static forRoot(config: MyConfiguration): ModuleWithProviders {
    return {
      ngModule: MyModule,
      providers: [
        SomeService,
        {
          provide: SomeOtherService,
          useFactory: (some: SomeService, http: Http) => {
            switch (config.type) {
              case 'cloud':
                return new SomeOtherService(new SomethingSpecificForCloud());
              case 'server':
                return new SomeOtherService(new SomethingSpecificForServer());
            }
          },
          deps: [SomeService, Http]
        },

      ]
    };
  }
}

Then in my AppModule I would import this as MyModule.forRoot(myConfig).

As I updated CLI and Angular, this no longer compiles, because it cannot be statically analyzed. I understand why, but I am still not sure what the correct way to solve it is.

Have I abused this forRoot() approach in the first place? How do you write modules so that depending on a runtime switch, they produce different services?

回答1:

I found one way to achieve it: Expose the configuration via a provider, then have injected to a "static" factory function. The code above would look like this:

// Necessary if MyConfiguration is an interface
export const MY_CONFIG = new OpaqueToken('my.config');

// Static factory function
export function someOtherServiceFactory(config: MyConfiguration,some: SomeService, http: Http) {
  switch (config.type) {
    case 'cloud':
      return new SomeOtherService(new SomethingSpecificForCloud());
    case 'server':
      return new SomeOtherService(new SomethingSpecificForServer());
  }
}

@NgModule({
  imports: [HttpModule],
  providers: []
})
export class MyModule {
  static forRoot(config: MyConfiguration): ModuleWithProviders {
    return {
      ngModule: MyModule,
      providers: [
        SomeService,
        { provide: MY_CONFIG, useValue: config },
        {
          provide: SomeOtherService,
          useFactory: someOtherServiceFactory,
          deps: [MY_CONFIG, SomeService, Http]
        },

      ]
    };
  }
}

It works and all, but I would still be very interested in knowing whether this is actually a good idea, or if I'm doing something terribly wrong and should be taking a completely different approach to solving this problem.

I found another solution:

Use Angular CLI environments.
Create an abstract classes/interfaces for the services with different implementations or dependencies for different environments.
Export the right type from each enviromnent file (who said it has to only be a plain JS object?).
In the module provider definition, import from the environment.
At compile time, CLI environments will make the right thing get linked.
