I am creating an application using angular5 and express 4.16. I have anchor tag on home page on click of which another component should be rendered (it should be redirected to that URL) but only URL changes.
Required code is below.
app-routing.module.ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { TestComponent } from '../test/test.component';
const routes: Routes = [
{ path: '', redirectTo: '/', pathMatch: 'full' },
{ path: 'Test', component: TestComponent }
];
@NgModule({
imports: [ RouterModule.forRoot(routes) ],
exports: [ RouterModule ]
})
export class AppRoutingModule {}
app.component.ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
// Import the DataService
import { DataService } from './data.service';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
// Define a users property to hold our user data
employees: Array<any>;
// Create an instance of the DataService through dependency injection
constructor(private _dataService: DataService) {
// Access the Data Service's getUsers() method we defined
this._dataService.getEmployees()
.subscribe(res => this.employees = res);
}
}
app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import {TestComponent } from '../test/test.component';
import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import{DataService} from './data.service'
import {HttpModule} from '@angular/http'
@NgModule({
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
AppRoutingModule,
HttpModule
],
declarations: [
AppComponent,
TestComponent
],
providers: [DataService],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Node/Express server.js
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const path = require('path');
const http = require('http');
const app = express();
// API file for interacting with MongoDB
const api = require('./server/routes/api');
// Parsers
app.use(bodyParser.json());
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false}));
// Angular DIST output folder
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'dist')));
// API location
app.use('/api', api);
// Send all other requests to the Angular app
app.get('*', (req, res) => {
res.sendFile(path.join(__dirname, 'dist/index.html'));
});
//Set Port
const port = process.env.PORT || '3000';
app.set('port', port);
const server = http.createServer(app);
server.listen(port, () => console.log(`Running on localhost:${port}`));
Output of home page as desired
Downoad screenshot Output after running localhost:3000 as desired anchor tag rendered
After click on anchor tag url changed but test component didnt rendered on browser
test.component.ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'test-html',
templateUrl: './test.component.html'
})
export class TestComponent {
title = 'app';
}
app.component.html
<!--The content below is only a placeholder and can be replaced.-->
<div style="text-align:center">
<h1>
</h1>
</div>
<a [routerLink]="['/Test']" >test</a>
<ul>
<li *ngFor="let employee of employees">{{employee.name}}</li>
</ul>
