How to manage your 'Angular App' based on JSON files?

Managing an Angular app based on JSON files involves using the Angular HttpClient module to retrieve and manipulate the JSON data. Here's an example of how you can do this :

1. Import the HttpClient module in your app.module.ts file :

 
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    HttpClientModule
  ]
})
export class AppModule { }
 
 

2. Inject the HttpClient module in the component you want to use it in :

 
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

export class MyComponent {
  constructor(private http: HttpClient) { }
}

3. Use the HttpClient module to make a GET request to retrieve the JSON data:

 
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

export class MyComponent {
  data: any;
  
  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {
    this.http.get('path/to/data.json').subscribe(data => {
      this.data = data;
    });
  }
}
 

4. Use the data in your component's template and class to display or manipulate it :

<div *ngFor="let item of data">
  {{ item.name }}
</div>

 

5. Alternatively, you can use the HttpClient to make POST, PUT and DELETE request to update your Json files.


It's important to note that it's always a good idea to have a backup of your JSON files, and to make sure your JSON data is in the correct format before using it in your app.
 
You can also use a library like json-server to mock a RESTful API and manage your json files as a backend.
