Getting started with Angular Signature component

This section explains how to create a simple Signature, and demonstrate the basic usage of the Signature module in an Angular environment.

Dependencies

The list of dependencies required to use the Signature module in your application is given below:

|-- @syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-angular-base
    |-- @syncfusion/ej2-inputs
        |-- @syncfusion/ej2-base

Setup Angular environment

You can use Angular CLI to setup your Angular applications. To install Angular CLI use the following command.

npm install -g @angular/cli

Create an Angular application

Start a new Angular application using below Angular CLI command.

ng new my-app
cd my-app

Installing Syncfusion Signature package

To install Signature package, use the following command.

npm install @syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs --save

The above package installs Signature dependencies which are required to render the component in the Angular environment.

Adding Signature module

Import Signature module into Angular application(app.module.ts) from the package @syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
// Imported Syncfusion Signature module from inputs package.
import { SignatureModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
@NgModule({
    imports: [BrowserModule, SignatureModule], // Registering EJ2 Signature Module.
    declarations: [AppComponent],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

Adding Syncfusion Signature component

Modify the template in app.component.ts file with ejs-signature to render the Signature component.

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

@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    template: `<!-- To Render Signature. -->
             <canvas ejs-signature #signature id="signature" ></canvas>`
})
export class AppComponent {}

Adding CSS reference

Add Signature component’s styles as given below in style.css.

@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-base/styles/material.css';
@import '../node_modules/@syncfusion/ej2-inputs/styles/material.css';

Running the application

Run the application in the browser using the following command:

ng serve

The following example shows a basic Signature component.

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

@Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    template: `<h4>Sign here</h4>
            <!-- To Render Signature. -->
            <canvas ejs-signature #signature id="signature" />`
})
export class AppComponent {}

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { SignatureComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-inputs';
import { enableRipple } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';

enableRipple(true);

/**
 * Module
 */
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,FormsModule
    ],
    declarations: [AppComponent, SignatureComponent],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

import { platformBrowserDynamic } from '@angular/platform-browser-dynamic';
import { enableProdMode } from '@angular/core';
import { AppModule } from './app.module';

enableProdMode();
platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule(AppModule);
