import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
 
import { AppRoutingModule } from './app-routing.module';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { DashboardComponent } from './components/dashboard/dashboard.component';
import { AngularOnboardingModule } from 'angular-onboarding';
 
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    DashboardComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    AngularOnboardingModule.forRoot({
      steps: [
        {
          id: 0,
          text: 'This is your home!',
          path: '/'
        },
        {
          id: 1,
          text: 'This is your dashboard!',
          path: '/dashboard'
        }
      ]
    }),
    AppRoutingModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

<button #logoutButton>Logout</button>
<ao-step id="0" [element]="logoutButton" location="above"></ao-step>

import { AngularOnboardingService } from 'angular-onboarding';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';
 
@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit {
 
  constructor(private router: Router, private aoService: AngularOnboardingService) {
    aoService.navigateSubject.subscribe(path => {
      router.navigateByUrl(path);
    });
  }
