How to create angular 2 component into Nativescript Application?

Issue

I'm using nativescript with angular 2.

I'm wondering how to rapidly create a ng component in a Nativescript Project. For example into Angular 2 to create a component we are using ng generate component hello.

Is there a nativescript cli solution for that?

Solution

The base command for creating a NativeScript app comes with some predefined templates. For creating base Angular-2 Application you can use

tns create myApp --ng

Or you can create your own template like this one and pass it as a param

tns create myApp --template path-to-template-here

Or if you are using VSCode as your IDE for development then you can add the this extension

And then it is pretty straight forward: right click on app folder >> Add Angular2 Files

The command will prompt for a name and will generate the following (if the name provided is home)

home/home.component.ts
home/home.component.html
home/home.component.css
home/home.component.spec.ts
