component redirect

In Angular 8, redirecting from one component to another is done using the Angular Router. You don’t “switch components” directly — instead, you navigate to a route that loads the target component.

Steps to Redirect (Login ? Homepage)

1. Configure Routes

In app-routing.module.ts:

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { RouterModule, Routes } from '@angular/router';
import { LoginComponent } from './login/login.component';
import { HomeComponent } from './home/home.component';

const routes: Routes = [
  { path: 'login', component: LoginComponent },
  { path: 'home', component: HomeComponent },
  { path: '', redirectTo: '/login', pathMatch: 'full' } // default route
];

@NgModule({
  imports: [RouterModule.forRoot(routes)],
  exports: [RouterModule]
})
export class AppRoutingModule { }

2. Inject Router in Login Component

In login.component.ts:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-login',
  templateUrl: './login.component.html'
})
export class LoginComponent {
  constructor(private router: Router) {}

  onLogin() {
    // After successful login logic
    this.router.navigate(['/home']);  // redirect to HomeComponent
  }
}
