Topic: Cannot get modal to work
Declan Ward priority asked 5 years ago
I followed the steps at https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/modals/basic/ without success. Perhaps I am missing something simple :(
The solution offered at https://mdbootstrap.com/support/angular/modal-is-not-wotking/ does not work for me.
Expected behavior Modal should display
Actual behavior Screen greyed out and no modal displays
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
modal.component.ts
import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core'; import { MDBModalRef } from 'ng-uikit-pro-standard'; @Component({ selector: 'app-modal', templateUrl: './modal.component.html', styleUrls: ['./modal.component.scss'] }) export class ModalComponent implements OnInit { constructor(modalRef: MDBModalRef) { } ngOnInit() { } }
modal.component.html is copied from Dynamic Modal at: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/modals/basic/
<div class="modal-header"> <button type="button" class="close pull-right" aria-label="Close" (click)="modalRef.hide()"> <span aria-hidden="true">×</span> </button> <h4 class="modal-title w-100" id="myModalLabel">Modal title</h4> </div> <div class="modal-body"> ... </div> <div class="modal-footer"> <button type="button" mdbBtn color="secondary" class="waves-light" aria-label="Close" (click)="modalRef.hide()" mdbWavesEffect>Close</button> <button type="button" mdbBtn color="primary" class="relative waves-light" mdbWavesEffect>Save!</button> </div>app.component.ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core'; import { MDBModalRef, MDBModalService } from 'ng-uikit-pro-standard'; import { ModalComponent } from './modal/modal.component' ... constructor(private modalService: MDBModalService) {} ... openModal() { this.modalRef = this.modalService.show(ModalComponent) }
angular.json

app.module.ts

Hi!
Just add entryComponents: [ ModalComponent ]
to your app.module.ts
like below:
import { MDBBootstrapModulesPro } from 'ng-uikit-pro-standard';
import { MDBSpinningPreloader } from 'ng-uikit-pro-standard';
import { ModalComponent } from 'your-path-to-modal-component';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
...
imports: [
...
MDBBootstrapModulesPro.forRoot(),
...
],
entryComponents: [ ModalComponent ] <------------------------!
providers: [
...
MDBSpinningPreloader,
...
]
Best Regards, Bartosz.

You can use ModalService
to listen to all modal events. We explained how to do that here:
https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/modals/basic/#listen-to-events
In this case you will need closed
event.

One further question - I can subscribe to the action and get the result with:
this.modalRef.content.action.subscribe( (result: any) => { console.log(result); });
However, if the user hits Esc there is no result. How can I get a response from hitting Esc?
