Setup

Before setting up the SDK, please make sure you have followed the steps to setup the Raven In-App Integration first.

Step 1

Run the following commands in your project root directory.

npm i @ravenapp/raven-inapp-angular

Step 2

Import RavenInAppModule from ‘@ravenapp/raven-inapp-angular’ and add it to the imports array in the app.module.ts file.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { RavenInAppModule } from '@ravenapp/raven-inapp-angular';
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    RavenInAppModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Step 3

Intialize library by calling intialize method in app.component.ts.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { CountService } from '@ravenapp/raven-inapp-angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'],
})
export class AppComponent {
  constructor(private countService: CountService) {}
  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.countService.intialize(<appId>, <userId>, <signature>);
  }
}

Step 4

Please refer to the below code to consume the InApp Angular SDK in your app.

<inapp-notification-center
      [color]="<color>"
      [indicatorType]="<indicator_type>"
      [fontStyle]="<fontStyle>"
      [displayStyle]="<displayStyle>"
      [position]="<position>"
      [header]="<true|false>"
      [onClickNotification]="<callback_func()>"
    >
</inapp-notification-center>
AttributePurposeExamples
userIdUnique identifier of the user opening the notification center
appIdRaven App ID. Go to Raven dashboard > Settings > AppID
signatureUnique signature generated for the user as described here
onClickNotificationMethod that handles notification click. Args: (clickAction, customData). ClickAction string and CustomData map will be provided in the template and passed to the handler. Use clickAction to identify what action to perform on click and customData to pass any additional data that might be useful to perfor the click action.(clickAction, customData) => { if (clickAction === "OPEN_ORDER_PAGE") { open("/orders", customData["orderId"])}}
colorThis is your primary color. It will get applied to the buttons and other UI components in the inapp center‘red’, ‘#FF0000’, ‘rgb(255,0,0)’ (only strings)
indicatorTypeThis attribute accepts only two values i.e ‘dot’, ‘count’. The ‘dot’ will show a dot on the bell icon whenever a new notification comes and the ‘count’ will show the count of new notifications.‘dot’, ‘count’ (only strings)
fontStyleCustom font family for the inapp center. Default will take your system font.‘Times’, ‘Courier’ etc (only strings)
displayStyledisplayStyle can be either ‘drawer’ or ‘bubble’ or ‘fullScreen’. Bubble displays the notification list inside a popover. Drawer displays the notification list as full height on the right or left side of the screen depending on the position value. FullScreen comes with no bell-icon and inherits height and width from parent.‘drawer’,‘bubble’ and ‘fullScreen’ (only strings)
positionIf the displayStyle is ‘drawer’ then position accepts two values, i.e ‘left’ and ‘right’. If the display style is ‘bubble’ then position accepts three values, i.e ‘left’, ‘center’ and ‘right’.‘left’, ‘right’, ‘center’ (only strings)
headerheader can be either true or false. You can pass true, if you want the notification header which has unread count, refresh button, mark all read and close button. You can pass false, if you don’t want the notification header.true or false (boolean)
  • Do not forget to call deintialize method when user logs out otherwise user will receive notifications event after logging out. You can access the deintialize method by importing CountService.
  • When display style is ‘fullScreen’, there will not be bell icon. Inorder to access new notification’s count, import the CountService and subscribe the count.
  • When display style is ‘fullScreen’, you can remove the header by passing header= to the inapp-notification-center component. In that case, you can access to the unread count, mark all read, reload data by importing CountService.
    • deintialize - <CountServiceObj>.deintialize()
    • mark all read - <CountServiceObj>.markAllRead()
    • reload data - <CountServiceObj>.reloadData()
    • unread count - <CountServiceObj>.unreadCount
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { CountService } from '@ravenapp/raven-inapp-angular';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css'],
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {

  constructor(private countService: CountService) {}
  ngOnInit(): void {
    this.countService.count.subscribe((count: any) => console.log(count));
    this.countService.unreadCount.subscribe((unread: any) => console.log(unread));
  }
}

In-App Angular Demo App

You can follow the below process to see the demo of In-App Angular SDK.

Step 1

Clone this repo.

git clone https://github.com/ravenappdev/inapp-angular-sdk.git

Step 2

If you haven’t installed angular cli, install it using the following command.

npm install -g @angular/cli

If you are using a mac, use

sudo npm install -g @angular/cli

Step 3

After installing angular cli, run the following command in the project root directory.

npm install

Step 4

Change the userId, appId and signature variables in projects/test/src/app/app.component.ts.

Step 5

Run the following command in the project root directory to start the app.

ng serve test
