Featurit SDK for Angular

Angular wrapper of the Javascript client for the FeaturIT Feature Flag management platform.

Description

This package aims to simplify the integration of the FeaturIT API in an Angular project.

Getting started

Dependencies

• "tslib": "^2.3.0"
• "featurit-sdk-js-browser": "^0.0.4"

Installing

npm install featurit-sdk-angular --save

Inside your app.module.ts add:

@NgModule({
  ...,
  imports: [
    ...,
    FeaturitModule.forRoot({
      tenantIdentifier: "your_tenant_subdomain",
      frontendApiKey: "your_frontend_api_key",
      refreshIntervalMinutes: 5,
      enableAnalytics: false,
    }),
  ],

Basic Usage

That's how you would use Featurit in one of your Angular components:

featureFlag: FeatureFlag = {
  name: 'Feat',
  active: false,
  version: 'default',
};

constructor(private featurit: FeaturitService) {
  ...
}

async ngOnInit() {
  this.featurit.setUserContext(this.userContext);

  await this.listenFeatureFlag();
}

private async listenFeatureFlag() {
  await this.featurit.init();

  this.featureFlag.active = this.featurit.isActive("YOUR_FEATURE_NAME");
  this.featureFlag.version = this.featurit.version("YOUR_FEATURE_NAME");

  // This part is optional but it will allow for automatic updates 
  // on the application when the feature flag changes 
  // are synced from the server.
  
  this.featurit.onChange(this.featureFlag).subscribe({
    next: (newFeatureFlag: FeatureFlag) => {
      console.log('AngularComponent: ', `Observed change, updating my value to ${JSON.stringify(newFeatureFlag)}`);
      this.featureFlag = newFeatureFlag;
    }
  });
}

Defining your FeaturitUserContext

In order to show different versions of a feature to different users, Featurit needs to know about the attributes your user has in a certain context.

You can define the context using the as follows:

const contextData: FeaturitUserContext = get_your_user_context_data();

this.featurit.setUserContext(contextData);

await this.featurit.refresh();
