Cannot find module '@angular/http' Angular 9

Question

I am facing an error all of a sudden in a perfectly fine running application

Cannot find module '@angular/http'

import { Http } from '@angular/http'

I am using http to read a json file

 this.http.get('assets/env/env.json').pipe(map( res => res.json()))

Please help

Answer 1

angular replaced the http module back in around angular 5 or 6. It's been deprecated for some time. You now need to use the HttpClient and HttpClientModule from @angular/common/http

but be aware that the Http service and the HttpClient service have some important differences that may break your app if it was using Http

Answer 2

Http was deprecated. Use HttpClient

   import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

Answer 3

@angular/http is depricated and in recent versions and is now removed from the generated package.json file, use HttpClient from '@angular/common/http'.
