Solving Angular Routing for Your Admin Panel

Creating a user-friendly admin panel for your e-commerce site can come with its own set of challenges, particularly when it comes to Angular routing. One common issue developers face is ensuring that subpages open within specific components rather than creating new URLs. In this post, we'll help you tackle the problem of routing for your Angular admin panel.

The Problem: Subpages Opening in the Wrong URL

You have successfully created a dashboard layout with side navigation, displaying various components. However, when you try to navigate to a subpage such as add-color-stone, it reaches an unexpected URL:

Current behavior:

Incorrect URL: http://localhost:4200/add-color-stone

Expected behavior:

Correct URL: http://localhost:4200/general-master/color-stone/add-color-stone

This discrepancy makes for a disjointed user experience, as the subpages should logically belong within their parent components.

Understanding Your Angular Structure

Before diving into the solution, let’s take a quick look at your folder structure and current routing setup:

Key Components

color-stone.component.ts: Handles navigation to the add-color-stone subcomponent.

color-stone.module.ts: Defines the ColorStoneModule, importing necessary Angular modules.

general-master.routing.ts: Establishes the routing for the general master section, where the color-stone component lives.

The Solution: Define Nested Routes

The solution to your routing issue lies in setting up nested routes within your ColorStoneRoutes. Here’s how you can implement it.

Step 1: Update the ColorStone Routing

The first step is modifying your color-stone.routing.ts (create this file if it doesn’t exist). Here’s a sample route configuration:

Step 2: Modify Navigation Logic

Ensure that your navigation logic correctly points to this new routing structure in color-stone.component.ts:

Conclusion

By defining nested routes, you will ensure that when users navigate to add-color-stone, it will correctly open within the color-stone component, and the URL will reflect this hierarchy.

Benefits of This Approach

Improved User Experience: Users will have a more intuitive and organized navigation experience.

Better URL Structure: The URL reflects the component hierarchy, making it easier to manage and understand.

By following these steps, you should be well on your way to refining the routing in your Angular admin panel. Happy coding!
