How can I use/create dynamic template to compile dynamic Component with Angular 2.0?

问题

I want to dynamically create template. This should be used to build a ComponentType at Runtime and place (even replace) it somewhere inside of the hosting Component.

Until RC4 I was using ComponentResolver, but with RC5 I get message:

ComponentResolver is deprecated for dynamic compilation. Use ComponentFactoryResolver together with @NgModule/@Component.entryComponents or ANALYZE_FOR_ENTRY_COMPONENTS provider instead. For runtime compile only, you can also use Compiler.compileComponentSync/Async.

I found this (offical angular2) document

Angular 2 Synchronous Dynamic Component Creation

And understand that I can use either

• Kind of dynamic ngIf with ComponentFactoryResolver. If I will pass known components into hosting one inside of @Component({entryComponents: [comp1, comp2], ...}) - I can use .resolveComponentFactory(componentToRender);
• Real runtime compilation, with Compiler...

But the question is how to use that Compiler? The Note above says that I should call: Compiler.compileComponentSync/Async - so how?

For example. I want to create (based on some configuration conditions) this kind of template for one kind of settings

<form>
   <string-editor
     [propertyName]=\"\'code\'\"
     [entity]=\"entity\"
   ></string-editor>
   <string-editor
     [propertyName]=\"\'description\'\"
     [entity]=\"entity\"
   ></string-editor>
   ...

and in another case this one (string-editor is replaced with text-editor)

<form>
   <text-editor
     [propertyName]=\"\'code\'\"
     [entity]=\"entity\"
   ></text-editor>
   ...

And so on (different number/date/reference editors by property types, skipped some properties for some users...). I.e. this is an example, real configuration could generate much more different and complex templates.

The template is changing, so I cannot use ComponentFactoryResolver and pass existing ones... I need solution with the Compiler

AOT and JitCompiler (former RuntimeCompiler)

Would you like to use this features with AOT (ahead of time compilation)? Are you getting:

Error: Error encountered resolving symbol values statically. Function calls are not supported. Consider replacing the function or lambda with a reference to an exported function (position 65:17 in the original .ts file), resolving symbol COMPILER_PROVIDERS in .../node_modules/@angular/compiler/src/compiler.d.ts,

Please, leave your comment, vote here:

Could/would/will code using COMPILER_PROVIDERS be supported by AOT?

NOTE: to get solution for previous version, check the history of this post

Similar topic is discussed here Equivalent of $compile in Angular 2. We need to use JitCompiler and NgModule. Read more about NgModule in Angular2 here:

• Angular 2 RC5 - NgModules, Lazy Loading and AoT compilation

In a Nutshell

There is a working plunker/example (dynamic template, dynamic component type, dynamic module,JitCompiler, ... in action)

The principal is:
1) create Template
2) find ComponentFactory in cache - go to 7)
3) - create Component
4) - create Module
5) - compile Module
6) - return (and cache for later use) ComponentFactory
7) use Target and ComponentFactory to create an Instance of dynamic Component

Here is a code snippet (more of it here) - Our custom Builder is returning just built/cached ComponentFactory and the view Target placeholder consume to create an instance of the DynamicComponent

  // here we get a TEMPLATE with dynamic content === TODO
  var template = this.templateBuilder.prepareTemplate(this.entity, useTextarea);

  // here we get Factory (just compiled or from cache)
  this.typeBuilder
      .createComponentFactory(template)
      .then((factory: ComponentFactory<IHaveDynamicData>) =>
    {
        // Target will instantiate and inject component (we'll keep reference to it)
        this.componentRef = this
            .dynamicComponentTarget
            .createComponent(factory);

        // let's inject @Inputs to component instance
        let component = this.componentRef.instance;

        component.entity = this.entity;
        //...
    });

This is it - in nutshell it. To get more details.. read below

.

TL&DR

Observe a plunker and come back to read details in case some snippet requires more explanation

.

Detailed explanation - Angular2 RC6++ & runtime components

Below description of this scenario, we will

1. create a module PartsModule:NgModule (holder of small pieces)
2. create another module DynamicModule:NgModule, which will contain our dynamic component (and reference PartsModule dynamically)
3. create dynamic Template (simple approach)
4. create new Component type (only if template has changed)
5. create new RuntimeModule:NgModule. This module will contain the previously created Component type
6. call JitCompiler.compileModuleAndAllComponentsAsync(runtimeModule) to get ComponentFactory
7. create an Instance of the DynamicComponent - job of the View Target placeholder and ComponentFactory
8. assign @Inputs to new instance (switch from INPUT to TEXTAREA editing), consume @Outputs

NgModule

We need an NgModules.

While I would like to show a very simple example, in this case, I would need three modules (in fact 4 - but I do not count the AppModule). Please, take this rather than a simple snippet as a basis for a really solid dynamic component generator.

There will be one module for all small components, e.g. string-editor, text-editor (date-editor, number-editor...)

@NgModule({
  imports:      [ 
      CommonModule,
      FormsModule
  ],
  declarations: [
      DYNAMIC_DIRECTIVES
  ],
  exports: [
      DYNAMIC_DIRECTIVES,
      CommonModule,
      FormsModule
  ]
})
export class PartsModule { }

Where DYNAMIC_DIRECTIVES are extensible and are intended to hold all small parts used for our dynamic Component template/type. Check app/parts/parts.module.ts

The second will be module for our Dynamic stuff handling. It will contain hosting components and some providers.. which will be singletons. Therefor we will publish them standard way - with forRoot()

import { DynamicDetail }          from './detail.view';
import { DynamicTypeBuilder }     from './type.builder';
import { DynamicTemplateBuilder } from './template.builder';

@NgModule({
  imports:      [ PartsModule ],
  declarations: [ DynamicDetail ],
  exports:      [ DynamicDetail],
})

export class DynamicModule {

    static forRoot()
    {
        return {
            ngModule: DynamicModule,
            providers: [ // singletons accross the whole app
              DynamicTemplateBuilder,
              DynamicTypeBuilder
            ], 
        };
    }
}

Check the usage of the forRoot() in the AppModule

Finally, we will need an adhoc, runtime module.. but that will be created later, as a part of DynamicTypeBuilder job.

The forth module, application module, is the one who keeps declares compiler providers:

...
import { COMPILER_PROVIDERS } from '@angular/compiler';    
import { AppComponent }   from './app.component';
import { DynamicModule }    from './dynamic/dynamic.module';

@NgModule({
  imports:      [ 
    BrowserModule,
    DynamicModule.forRoot() // singletons
  ],
  declarations: [ AppComponent],
  providers: [
    COMPILER_PROVIDERS // this is an app singleton declaration
  ],

Read (do read) much more about NgModule there:

• Angular 2 RC5 - NgModules, Lazy Loading and AoT compilation
• Angular Modules documentation

A template builder

In our example we will process detail of this kind of entity

entity = { 
    code: "ABC123",
    description: "A description of this Entity" 
};

To create a template, in this plunker we use this simple/naive builder.

The real solution, a real template builder, is the place where your application can do a lot

// plunker - app/dynamic/template.builder.ts
import {Injectable} from "@angular/core";

@Injectable()
export class DynamicTemplateBuilder {

    public prepareTemplate(entity: any, useTextarea: boolean){

      let properties = Object.keys(entity);
      let template = "<form >";
      let editorName = useTextarea 
        ? "text-editor"
        : "string-editor";

      properties.forEach((propertyName) =>{
        template += `
          <${editorName}
              [propertyName]="'${propertyName}'"
              [entity]="entity"
          ></${editorName}>`;
      });

      return template + "</form>";
    }
}

A trick here is - it builds a template which uses some set of known properties, e.g. entity. Such property(-ies) must be part of dynamic component, which we will create next.

To make it a bit more easier, we can use an interface to define properties, which our Template builder can use. This will be implemented by our dynamic Component type.

export interface IHaveDynamicData { 
    public entity: any;
    ...
}

A ComponentFactory builder

Very important thing here is to keep in mind:

our component type, build with our DynamicTypeBuilder, could differ - but only by its template (created above). Components' properties (inputs, outputs or some protected) are still same. If we need different properties, we should define different combination of Template and Type Builder

So, we are touching the core of our solution. The Builder, will 1) create ComponentType 2) create its NgModule 3) compile ComponentFactory 4) cache it for later reuse.

An dependency we need to receive:

// plunker - app/dynamic/type.builder.ts
import { JitCompiler } from '@angular/compiler';

@Injectable()
export class DynamicTypeBuilder {

  // wee need Dynamic component builder
  constructor(
    protected compiler: JitCompiler
  ) {}

And here is a snippet how to get a ComponentFactory:

// plunker - app/dynamic/type.builder.ts
// this object is singleton - so we can use this as a cache
private _cacheOfFactories:
     {[templateKey: string]: ComponentFactory<IHaveDynamicData>} = {};

public createComponentFactory(template: string)
    : Promise<ComponentFactory<IHaveDynamicData>> {    
    let factory = this._cacheOfFactories[template];

    if (factory) {
        console.log("Module and Type are returned from cache")

        return new Promise((resolve) => {
            resolve(factory);
        });
    }

    // unknown template ... let's create a Type for it
    let type   = this.createNewComponent(template);
    let module = this.createComponentModule(type);

    return new Promise((resolve) => {
        this.compiler
            .compileModuleAndAllComponentsAsync(module)
            .then((moduleWithFactories) =>
            {
                factory = _.find(moduleWithFactories.componentFactories
                                , { componentType: type });

                this._cacheOfFactories[template] = factory;

                resolve(factory);
            });
    });
}

Above we create and cache both Component and Module. Because if the template (in fact the real dynamic part of that all) is the same.. we can reuse

And here are two methods, which represent the really cool way how to create a decorated classes/types in runtime. Not only @Component but also the @NgModule

protected createNewComponent (tmpl:string) {
  @Component({
      selector: 'dynamic-component',
      template: tmpl,
  })
  class CustomDynamicComponent  implements IHaveDynamicData {
      @Input()  public entity: any;
  };
  // a component for this particular template
  return CustomDynamicComponent;
}
protected createComponentModule (componentType: any) {
  @NgModule({
    imports: [
      PartsModule, // there are 'text-editor', 'string-editor'...
    ],
    declarations: [
      componentType
    ],
  })
  class RuntimeComponentModule
  {
  }
  // a module for just this Type
  return RuntimeComponentModule;
}

Important:

our component dynamic types differ, but just by template. So we use that fact to cache them. This is really very important. Angular2 will also cache these.. by the type. And if we would recreate for the same template strings new types... we will start to generate memory leaks.

ComponentFactory used by hosting component

Final piece is a component, which hosts the target for our dynamic component, e.g. <div #dynamicContentPlaceHolder></div>. We get a reference to it and use ComponentFactory to create a component. That is in a nutshell, and here are all the pieces of that component (if needed, open plunker here)

Let's firstly summarize import statements:

import {Component, ComponentRef,ViewChild,ViewContainerRef}   from '@angular/core';
import {AfterViewInit,OnInit,OnDestroy,OnChanges,SimpleChange} from '@angular/core';

import { IHaveDynamicData, DynamicTypeBuilder } from './type.builder';
import { DynamicTemplateBuilder }               from './template.builder';

@Component({
  selector: 'dynamic-detail',
  template: `
<div>
  check/uncheck to use INPUT vs TEXTAREA:
  <input type="checkbox" #val (click)="refreshContent(val.checked)" /><hr />
  <div #dynamicContentPlaceHolder></div>  <hr />
  entity: <pre>{{entity | json}}</pre>
</div>
`,
})
export class DynamicDetail implements AfterViewInit, OnChanges, OnDestroy, OnInit
{ 
    // wee need Dynamic component builder
    constructor(
        protected typeBuilder: DynamicTypeBuilder,
        protected templateBuilder: DynamicTemplateBuilder
    ) {}
    ...

We just receive, template and component builders. Next are properties which are needed for our example (more in comments)

// reference for a <div> with #dynamicContentPlaceHolder
@ViewChild('dynamicContentPlaceHolder', {read: ViewContainerRef}) 
protected dynamicComponentTarget: ViewContainerRef;
// this will be reference to dynamic content - to be able to destroy it
protected componentRef: ComponentRef<IHaveDynamicData>;

// until ngAfterViewInit, we cannot start (firstly) to process dynamic stuff
protected wasViewInitialized = false;

// example entity ... to be recieved from other app parts
// this is kind of candiate for @Input
protected entity = { 
    code: "ABC123",
    description: "A description of this Entity" 
  };

In this simple scenario, our hosting component does not have any @Input. So it does not have to react to changes. But despite of that fact (and to be ready for coming changes) - we need to introduce some flag if the component was already (firstly) initiated. And only then we can start the magic.

Finally we will use our component builder, and its just compiled/cached ComponentFacotry. Our Target placeholder will be asked to instantiate the Component with that factory.

protected refreshContent(useTextarea: boolean = false){

  if (this.componentRef) {
      this.componentRef.destroy();
  }

  // here we get a TEMPLATE with dynamic content === TODO
  var template = this.templateBuilder.prepareTemplate(this.entity, useTextarea);

  // here we get Factory (just compiled or from cache)
  this.typeBuilder
      .createComponentFactory(template)
      .then((factory: ComponentFactory<IHaveDynamicData>) =>
    {
        // Target will instantiate and inject component (we'll keep reference to it)
        this.componentRef = this
            .dynamicComponentTarget
            .createComponent(factory);

        // let's inject @Inputs to component instance
        let component = this.componentRef.instance;

        component.entity = this.entity;
        //...
    });
}

small extension

Also, we need to keep a reference to compiled template.. to be able properly destroy() it, whenever we will change it.

// this is the best moment where to start to process dynamic stuff
public ngAfterViewInit(): void
{
    this.wasViewInitialized = true;
    this.refreshContent();
}
// wasViewInitialized is an IMPORTANT switch 
// when this component would have its own changing @Input()
// - then we have to wait till view is intialized - first OnChange is too soon
public ngOnChanges(changes: {[key: string]: SimpleChange}): void
{
    if (this.wasViewInitialized) {
        return;
    }
    this.refreshContent();
}

public ngOnDestroy(){
  if (this.componentRef) {
      this.componentRef.destroy();
      this.componentRef = null;
  }
}

done

That is pretty much it. Do not forget to Destroy anything what was built dynamically (ngOnDestroy). Also, be sure to cache dynamic types and modules if the only difference is their template.

EDIT (26/08/2017): The solution below works well with Angular2 and 4. I've updated it to contain a template variable and click handler and tested it with Angular 4.3.
For Angular4, ngComponentOutlet as described in Ophir's answer is a much better solution. But right now it does not support inputs & outputs yet. If [this PR](https://github.com/angular/angular/pull/15362] is accepted, it would be possible through the component instance returned by the create event.
ng-dynamic-component may be the best and simplest solution altogether, but I haven't tested that yet.

@Long Field's answer is spot on! Here's another (synchronous) example:

import {Compiler, Component, NgModule, OnInit, ViewChild,
  ViewContainerRef} from '@angular/core'
import {BrowserModule} from '@angular/platform-browser'

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `<h1>Dynamic template:</h1>
             <div #container></div>`
})
export class App implements OnInit {
  @ViewChild('container', { read: ViewContainerRef }) container: ViewContainerRef;

  constructor(private compiler: Compiler) {}

  ngOnInit() {
    this.addComponent(
      `<h4 (click)="increaseCounter()">
        Click to increase: {{counter}}
      `enter code here` </h4>`,
      {
        counter: 1,
        increaseCounter: function () {
          this.counter++;
        }
      }
    );
  }

  private addComponent(template: string, properties?: any = {}) {
    @Component({template})
    class TemplateComponent {}

    @NgModule({declarations: [TemplateComponent]})
    class TemplateModule {}

    const mod = this.compiler.compileModuleAndAllComponentsSync(TemplateModule);
    const factory = mod.componentFactories.find((comp) =>
      comp.componentType === TemplateComponent
    );
    const component = this.container.createComponent(factory);
    Object.assign(component.instance, properties);
    // If properties are changed at a later stage, the change detection
    // may need to be triggered manually:
    // component.changeDetectorRef.detectChanges();
  }
}

@NgModule({
  imports: [ BrowserModule ],
  declarations: [ App ],
  bootstrap: [ App ]
})
export class AppModule {}

I must have arrived at the party late, none of the solutions here seemed helpful to me - too messy and felt like too much of a workaround.

What I ended up doing is using Angular 4.0.0-beta.6's ngComponentOutlet.

This gave me the shortest, simplest solution all written in the dynamic component's file.

• Here is a simple example which just receives text and places it in a template, but obviously you can change according to your need:

import {
  Component, OnInit, Input, NgModule, NgModuleFactory, Compiler
} from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-component',
  template: `<ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="dynamicComponent;
                            ngModuleFactory: dynamicModule;"></ng-container>`,
  styleUrls: ['my.component.css']
})
export class MyComponent implements OnInit {
  dynamicComponent;
  dynamicModule: NgModuleFactory<any>;

  @Input()
  text: string;

  constructor(private compiler: Compiler) {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.dynamicComponent = this.createNewComponent(this.text);
    this.dynamicModule = this.compiler.compileModuleSync(this.createComponentModule(this.dynamicComponent));
  }

  protected createComponentModule (componentType: any) {
    @NgModule({
      imports: [],
      declarations: [
        componentType
      ],
      entryComponents: [componentType]
    })
    class RuntimeComponentModule
    {
    }
    // a module for just this Type
    return RuntimeComponentModule;
  }

  protected createNewComponent (text:string) {
    let template = `dynamically created template with text: ${text}`;

    @Component({
      selector: 'dynamic-component',
      template: template
    })
    class DynamicComponent implements OnInit{
       text: any;

       ngOnInit() {
       this.text = text;
       }
    }
    return DynamicComponent;
  }
}

• Short explanation:
  1. my-component - the component in which a dynamic component is rendering
  2. DynamicComponent - the component to be dynamically built and it is rendering inside my-component

Don't forget to upgrade all the angular libraries to ^Angular 4.0.0

Hope this helps, good luck!

UPDATE

Also works for angular 5.

Great news! It seems that the @angular/cdk package now has first-class support for portals!

At of time of writing, I didn't find the above official docs particularly helpful (particularly with regard to sending data into and receiving events from the dynamic components). In summary, you will need to:

Step 1) Update your AppModule

Import PortalModule from the cdk package and register your dynamic component(s) inside entryComponents

@NgModule({
  declarations: [ ..., AppComponent, MyDynamicComponent, ... ]
  imports:      [ ..., PortalModule, ... ],
  entryComponents: [ ..., MyDynamicComponent, ... ]
})
export class AppModule { }

Step 2. Option A: If you do NOT need to pass data into and receive events from your dynamic components:

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `
    <button (click)="onClickAddChild()">Click to add child component</button>
    <ng-template [cdkPortalOutlet]="myPortal"></ng-template>
  `
})
export class AppComponent  {
  myPortal: ComponentPortal<any>;
  onClickAddChild() {
    this.myPortal = new ComponentPortal(MyDynamicComponent);
  }
}

@Component({
  selector: 'app-child',
  template: `<p>I am a child.</p>`
})
export class MyDynamicComponent{
}

See it in action

Step 2. Option B: If you DO need to pass data into and receive events from your dynamic components:

// A bit of boilerplate here. Recommend putting this function in a utils 
// file in order to keep your component code a little cleaner.
function createDomPortalHost(elRef: ElementRef, injector: Injector) {
  return new DomPortalHost(
    elRef.nativeElement,
    injector.get(ComponentFactoryResolver),
    injector.get(ApplicationRef),
    injector
  );
}

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `
    <button (click)="onClickAddChild()">Click to add random child component</button>
    <div #portalHost></div>
  `
})
export class AppComponent {

  portalHost: DomPortalHost;
  @ViewChild('portalHost') elRef: ElementRef;

  constructor(readonly injector: Injector) {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.portalHost = createDomPortalHost(this.elRef, this.injector);
  }

  onClickAddChild() {

I have a simple example to show how to do angular 2 rc6 dynamic component.

Say, you have a dynamic html template = template1 and want to dynamic load, firstly wrap into component

@Component({template: template1})
class DynamicComponent {}

here template1 as html, may be contains ng2 component

From rc6, have to have @NgModule wrap this component. @NgModule, just like module in anglarJS 1, it decouple different part of ng2 application, so:

@Component({
  template: template1,

})
class DynamicComponent {

}
@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule,RouterModule],
  declarations: [DynamicComponent]
})
class DynamicModule { }

(Here import RouterModule as in my example there is some route components in my html as you can see later on)

Now you can compile DynamicModule as: this.compiler.compileModuleAndAllComponentsAsync(DynamicModule).then( factory => factory.componentFactories.find(x => x.componentType === DynamicComponent))

And we need put above in app.moudule.ts to load it, please see my app.moudle.ts. For more and full details check: https://github.com/Longfld/DynamicalRouter/blob/master/app/MyRouterLink.ts and app.moudle.ts

and see demo: http://plnkr.co/edit/1fdAYP5PAbiHdJfTKgWo?p=preview

Solved this in Angular 2 Final version simply by using the dynamicComponent directive from ng-dynamic.

Usage:

<div *dynamicComponent="template; context: {text: text};"></div>

Where template is your dynamic template and context can be set to any dynamic datamodel that you want your template to bind to.

In angular 7.x I used angular-elements for this.

1. Install @angular-elements npm i @angular/elements -s

2. Create accessory service.

import { Injectable, Injector } from '@angular/core';
import { createCustomElement } from '@angular/elements';
import { IStringAnyMap } from 'src/app/core/models';
import { AppUserIconComponent } from 'src/app/shared';

const COMPONENTS = {
  'user-icon': AppUserIconComponent
};

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class DynamicComponentsService {
  constructor(private injector: Injector) {

  }

  public register(): void {
    Object.entries(COMPONENTS).forEach(([key, component]: [string, any]) => {
      const CustomElement = createCustomElement(component, { injector: this.injector });
      customElements.define(key, CustomElement);
    });
  }

  public create(tagName: string, data: IStringAnyMap = {}): HTMLElement {
    const customEl = document.createElement(tagName);

    Object.entries(data).forEach(([key, value]: [string, any]) => {
      customEl[key] = value;
    });

    return customEl;
  }
}

Note that you custom element tag must be different with angular component selector. in AppUserIconComponent:

...
selector: app-user-icon
...

and in this case custom tag name I used "user-icon".

3. Then you must call register in AppComponent:

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  template: '<router-outlet></router-outlet>'
})
export class AppComponent {
  constructor(   
    dynamicComponents: DynamicComponentsService,
  ) {
    dynamicComponents.register();
  }

}

4. And now in any place of your code you can use it like this:

dynamicComponents.create('user-icon', {user:{...}});

or like this:

const html = `<div class="wrapper"><user-icon class="user-icon" user='${JSON.stringify(rec.user)}'></user-icon></div>`;

this.content = this.domSanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(html);

(in template):

<div class="comment-item d-flex" [innerHTML]="content"></div>

Note that in second case you must pass objects with JSON.stringify and after that parse it again. I can't find better solution.

I want to add a few details on top of this very excellent post by Radim.

I took this solution and worked on it for a bit and quickly ran into some limitations. I'll just outline those and then give the solution to that as well.

• First of all I was unable to render dynamic-detail inside a dynamic-detail (basically nest dynamic UIs inside each other).
• The next issue was that I wanted to render a dynamic-detail inside one of the parts that was made available in the solution. That was not possible with the initial solution either.
• Lastly it was not possible to use template URLs on the dynamic parts like string-editor.

I made another question based on this post, on how to achieve these limitations, which can be found here:

recursive dynamic template compilation in angular2

I’ll just outline the answers to these limitations, should you run into the same issue as I, as that make the solution quite more flexible. It would be awesome to have the initial plunker updated with that as well.

To enable nesting dynamic-detail inside each other, You'll need to add DynamicModule.forRoot() in the import statement in the type.builder.ts

protected createComponentModule (componentType: any) {
    @NgModule({
    imports: [
        PartsModule, 
        DynamicModule.forRoot() //this line here
    ],
    declarations: [
        componentType
    ],
    })
    class RuntimeComponentModule
    {
    }
    // a module for just this Type
    return RuntimeComponentModule;
}

Besides that it was not possible to use <dynamic-detail> inside one of the parts being string-editor or text-editor.

To enable that you'll need to change parts.module.ts and dynamic.module.ts

Inside parts.module.ts You'll need to add DynamicDetail in the DYNAMIC_DIRECTIVES

export const DYNAMIC_DIRECTIVES = [
   forwardRef(() => StringEditor),
   forwardRef(() => TextEditor),
   DynamicDetail
];

Also in the dynamic.module.ts you'd have to remove the dynamicDetail as they are now part of the parts

@NgModule({
   imports:      [ PartsModule ],
   exports:      [ PartsModule],
})

A working modified plunker can be found here: http://plnkr.co/edit/UYnQHF?p=preview (I didn’t solve this issue, I’m just the messenger :-D)

Finally it was not possible to use templateurls in the parts created on the dynamic components. A solution (or workaround. I’m not sure whether it’s an angular bug or wrong use of the framework) was to create a compiler in the constructor instead of injecting it.

    private _compiler;

    constructor(protected compiler: RuntimeCompiler) {
        const compilerFactory : CompilerFactory =
        platformBrowserDynamic().injector.get(CompilerFactory);
        this._compiler = compilerFactory.createCompiler([]);
    }

Then use the _compiler to compile, then templateUrls are enabled as well.

return new Promise((resolve) => {
        this._compiler
            .compileModuleAndAllComponentsAsync(module)
            .then((moduleWithFactories) =>
            {
                let _ = window["_"];
                factory = _.find(moduleWithFactories.componentFactories, { componentType: type });

                this._cacheOfFactories[template] = factory;

                resolve(factory);
            });
    });

Hope this helps someone else!

Following up on Radmin's excellent answer, there is a little tweak needed for everyone who is using angular-cli version 1.0.0-beta.22 and above.

COMPILER_PROVIDERScan no longer be imported (for details see angular-cli GitHub).

So the workaround there is to not use COMPILER_PROVIDERS and JitCompiler in the providers section at all, but use JitCompilerFactory from '@angular/compiler' instead like this inside the type builder class:

private compiler: Compiler = new JitCompilerFactory([{useDebug: false, useJit: true}]).createCompiler();

As you can see, it is not injectable and thus has no dependencies with the DI. This solution should also work for projects not using angular-cli.

I myself am trying to see how can I update RC4 to RC5 and thus I stumbled upon this entry and new approach to dynamic component creation still holds a bit of mystery to me, so I wont suggest anything on component factory resolver.

But, what I can suggest is a bit clearer approach to component creation on this scenario - just use switch in template that would create string editor or text editor according to some condition, like this:

<form [ngSwitch]="useTextarea">
    <string-editor *ngSwitchCase="false" propertyName="'code'" 
                 [entity]="entity"></string-editor>
    <text-editor *ngSwitchCase="true" propertyName="'code'" 
                 [entity]="entity"></text-editor>
</form>

And by the way, "[" in [prop] expression have a meaning, this indicates one way data binding, hence you can and even should omit those in case if you know that you do not need to bind property to variable.

This is the example of dynamic Form controls generated from server.

https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-t3mmg6

This example is dynamic Form controls is in add component (This is where you can get the Formcontrols from the server). If you see addcomponent method you can see the Forms Controls. In this example I am not using angular material,but It works (I am using @ work). This is target to angular 6, but works in all previous version.

Need to add JITComplierFactory for AngularVersion 5 and above.

Thanks

For this particular case looks like using a directive to dynamically create the component would be a better option. Example:

In the HTML where you want to create the component

<ng-container dynamicComponentDirective [someConfig]="someConfig"></ng-container>

I would approach and design the directive in the following way.

const components: {[type: string]: Type<YourConfig>} = {
    text : TextEditorComponent,
    numeric: NumericComponent,
    string: StringEditorComponent,
    date: DateComponent,
    ........
    .........
};

@Directive({
    selector: '[dynamicComponentDirective]'
})
export class DynamicComponentDirective implements YourConfig, OnChanges, OnInit {
    @Input() yourConfig: Define your config here //;
    component: ComponentRef<YourConfig>;

    constructor(
        private resolver: ComponentFactoryResolver,
        private container: ViewContainerRef
    ) {}

    ngOnChanges() {
        if (this.component) {
            this.component.instance.config = this.config;
            // config is your config, what evermeta data you want to pass to the component created.
        }
    }

    ngOnInit() {
        if (!components[this.config.type]) {
            const supportedTypes = Object.keys(components).join(', ');
            console.error(`Trying to use an unsupported type ${this.config.type} Supported types: ${supportedTypes}`);
        }

        const component = this.resolver.resolveComponentFactory<yourConfig>(components[this.config.type]);
        this.component = this.container.createComponent(component);
        this.component.instance.config = this.config;
    }
}

So in your components text, string, date, whatever - whatever the config you have been passing in the HTML in the ng-container element would be available.

The config, yourConfig, can be the same and define your metadata.

Depending on your config or input type the directive should act accordingly and from the supported types, it would render the appropriate component. If not it will log an error.

Building on top of the answer by Ophir Stern, here is a variant which works with AoT in Angular 4. The only issue I have is I cant inject any services into the DynamicComponent, but I can live with that.

note: I haven't tested with Angular 5.

import { Component, OnInit, Input, NgModule, NgModuleFactory, Compiler, EventEmitter, Output } from '@angular/core';
import { JitCompilerFactory } from '@angular/compiler';

export function createJitCompiler() {
  return new JitCompilerFactory([{
    useDebug: false,
    useJit: true
  }]).createCompiler();
}

type Bindings = {
  [key: string]: any;
};

@Component({
  selector: 'app-compile',
  template: `
    <div *ngIf="dynamicComponent && dynamicModule">
      <ng-container *ngComponentOutlet="dynamicComponent; ngModuleFactory: dynamicModule;">
      </ng-container>
    </div>
  `,
  styleUrls: ['./compile.component.scss'],
  providers: [{provide: Compiler, useFactory: createJitCompiler}]
})
export class CompileComponent implements OnInit {

  public dynamicComponent: any;
  public dynamicModule: NgModuleFactory<any>;

  @Input()
  public bindings: Bindings = {};
  @Input()
  public template: string = '';

  constructor(private compiler: Compiler) { }

  public ngOnInit() {

    try {
      this.loadDynamicContent();
    } catch (err) {
      console.log('Error during template parsing: ', err);
    }

  }

  private loadDynamicContent(): void {

    this.dynamicComponent = this.createNewComponent(this.template, this.bindings);
    this.dynamicModule = this.compiler.compileModuleSync(this.createComponentModule(this.dynamicComponent));

  }

  private createComponentModule(componentType: any): any {

    const runtimeComponentModule = NgModule({
      imports: [],
      declarations: [
        componentType
      ],
      entryComponents: [componentType]
    })(class RuntimeComponentModule { });

    return runtimeComponentModule;

  }

  private createNewComponent(template: string, bindings: Bindings): any {

    const dynamicComponent = Component({
      selector: 'app-dynamic-component',
      template: template
    })(class DynamicComponent implements OnInit {

      public bindings: Bindings;

      constructor() { }

      public ngOnInit() {
        this.bindings = bindings;
      }

    });

    return dynamicComponent;

  }

}

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
