I've got a working angular application. I want to integrate it with a content management system that produces static pages, but for this I need to use content projection from the index.html page.
Something like this:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>AngularBacktest</title>
<base href="/">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico">
</head>
<body>
<app-root>Text injected from index.html</app-root>
</body>
</html>
Then, the app-root component implements content projection by including <ng-content></ng-content> in its template:
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template: '<p>Content projection from outside:11<ng-content></ng-content>11</p>',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent { }
Alas, things don't seem to work like I would like. After compiling and launching the application, the rendered result is the following:
- Content projection from outside:1111
This is my question:
- Is it possible to use content projection from outside the angular application, like in the example above?
- If yes, how? If not, why?
Edit: In some comments I get questioned as of why should I want something like this. So here is why: my Angular application provides configurable components implementing financial back-testing simulations. This involves fetching historical quotes, running a simulation and showing the results in a graph. I would like to display the simulations running in an environment like WordPress, a Dokuwiki, or even static pages served by some Apache instance. This is could be an example:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Pure Buy & Hold example</title>
<base href="./">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico">
</head>
<body>
<p>This simulation shows a pure <em>Buy & Hold</em>, investing
100'001USD in the S&P500, between 2000, January the 1st, and
2020 January the 1st:</p>
<app-root>
<simulation start="2000-01-01" end="2020-4-9" quotes="SPY">
<chart-report>
<chart-report-configuration show="SPY.CLOSE" showDataAs="LINE" showDataOn="LEFT" normalize="true" ></chart-report-configuration>
<chart-report-configuration show="BAH.NAV" showDataAs="LINE" showDataOn="LEFT" normalize="true" ></chart-report-configuration>
</chart-report>
<accounts>
<swiss-quote id="BAH" cash="100000">
<strategy>
<buy-and-hold assetName="SPY"></buy-and-hold>
</strategy>
</swiss-quote>
</accounts>
</simulation>
</app-root>
<p/>Blah blah blah blah</p>
</body>
</html>
