View is the section where the files and folders are displayed for the user to browse. The view API can also be used to change the initial view of the file manager.
The file manager has two types of views to display the files and folders.
By Default, File Manager is rendered with largeicons view. The following example demonstrate this.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
styleUrls: ['app/app.component.css'],
templateUrl: 'app/app.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {
public ajaxSettings: object;
public hostUrl: string = 'https://ej2-aspcore-service.azurewebsites.net/';
public ngOnInit(): void {
this.ajaxSettings = {
url: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/FileOperations',
getImageUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/GetImage',
uploadUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/Upload',
downloadUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/Download'
};
};
}import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { HttpModule, JsonpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FileManagerModule, NavigationPaneService, ToolbarService, DetailsViewService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-filemanager';
@NgModule({
imports: [FileManagerModule , HttpModule, JsonpModule, BrowserModule],
declarations: [AppComponent],
providers:[ NavigationPaneService, ToolbarService, DetailsViewService],
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);<ejs-filemanager id='file-manager' [ajaxSettings]='ajaxSettings'>
</ejs-filemanager>Details view is an injectable module in the file manager so, it should be injected before rendering the file manager to avail its functionality. The default appearance of the file manager can be changed from largeicons to details view by using the view property. The following example demonstrate the file manager with details view.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
styleUrls: ['app/app.component.css'],
templateUrl: 'app/app.component.html'
})
export class AppComponent {
public ajaxSettings: object;
public view: string;
public hostUrl: string = 'https://ej2-aspcore-service.azurewebsites.net/';
public ngOnInit(): void {
this.ajaxSettings = {
url: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/FileOperations',
getImageUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/GetImage',
uploadUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/Upload',
downloadUrl: this.hostUrl + 'api/FileManager/Download'
};
// Initial view of File Manager is set to details view
this.view = "Details";
};
}import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { HttpModule, JsonpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FileManagerModule, NavigationPaneService, ToolbarService, DetailsViewService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-filemanager';
@NgModule({
imports: [FileManagerModule , HttpModule, JsonpModule, BrowserModule],
declarations: [AppComponent],
providers:[ NavigationPaneService, ToolbarService, DetailsViewService],
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);<ejs-filemanager id='file-manager' [ajaxSettings]='ajaxSettings' [view]='view'>
</ejs-filemanager>
