如何在另一个模块/路由器中使用组件

Question

I'm trying to use another component from another module, but its not working in my router-outlet.

app.module

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { MainModule } from './main/main.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app/app.component';
import { KeypadComponent } from './keypad/keypad.component;
import { routing } from './app.routing';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    MainComponent,
    KeypadComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    CommonModule,
    MainModule,
    routing
  ],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

main.module

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { routing } from '../app.routing';

import { ProductComponent } from './product/product.component';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    routing
  ],
  declarations: [ProductComponent]
})
export class MainModule { }

My issue is that when I try to call the Keypad Component in product.component.html , it will give me an error that says it does not exist. However, when I call it in my main.component.html , it works fine.

If your component should be used by app module and main module it should go in the main module or in another shared module. Following example show how to use a shared module.

AppModule declaration

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    MainComponent,
  ],
  imports: [
    CommonModule,
    MainModule,
    SharedModule,
    routing
  ],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

MainModule declaration

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    CommonModule,
    routing,
    SharedModule
  ],
  declarations: [ProductComponent]
})
export class MainModule { }

SharedModule declaration

@NgModule({
  imports: [ CommonModule ],
  declarations: [ KeypadComponent ],
  exports: [ KeypadComponent ]
})
export class SharedModule { }
