如何将自己的node.js脚本添加到Angular 4项目

Question

I have a file function.js which exports function to comunicate with some api and return value. It comunicates using request library. I am using this in node.js app. How can I import/use it in my angular 4 app?

I thought to install this file as node_module. So I created new folder function where is function.js, package-json and node_modules folder. and then I installed it in my ng4 app by command

npm install --save ./function 

then in typings.d.ts I declare it

declare var Myfunction: any

and import it in my component

import * as Myfunction from "function"

but when i try using it I get an error :

ERROR in /Users/i343346/order-site/src/app/order/order.component.ts (37,12): Unexpected token. A constructor, method, accessor, or property was expected.
ERROR in /Users/i343346/order-site/src/app/order/order.component.ts (37,13): Function implementation is missing or not immediately following the declaration.

UPDATE I tried @Z. Bagley answear and now i can import my file. but got error:

I think is connected with request library, which maybe isn't supported by browser.

Answer 1

A simple way to include custom javascript functions in your Angular 4 project is to include the item in your assets folder, and then use require to import it into your component typescript.

src/assets/example.js

export function test() {
    console.log('test');
}

src/app/app.component.ts

(before @Component(...) )

declare var require: any;
const example = require('../assets/example');

(inside export class AppComponent implements OnInit { ... )

ngOnInit() {
  example.test();
}

I think you might also need to include your code in index.html via script tag.
