Angular 15: How to Implement Lazy Loading for a Module with an Auth Guard and Handle Route Redirection?
I'm collaborating on a project where I'm having trouble with I need some guidance on I'm trying to set up lazy loading for a feature module in my Angular 15 application, and I want to ensure that it is protected by an Auth Guard..... However, I'm encountering an issue where the route redirection isn't working as expected when the user is not authenticated. When navigating to the protected route, the guard checks if the user is logged in and then attempts to redirect to the login page, but it seems to redirect to an empty page instead of the login component. I've implemented an Auth Guard like this: ```typescript import { Injectable } from '@angular/core'; import { CanActivate, Router } from '@angular/router'; import { AuthService } from './auth.service'; @Injectable({ providedIn: 'root' }) export class AuthGuard implements CanActivate { constructor(private authService: AuthService, private router: Router) {} canActivate(): boolean { if (this.authService.isLoggedIn()) { return true; } else { this.router.navigate(['/login']); return false; } } } ``` In my routing module, I have configured the lazy-loaded module with the Auth Guard: ```typescript const routes: Routes = [ { path: 'feature', loadChildren: () => import('./feature/feature.module').then(m => m.FeatureModule), canActivate: [AuthGuard] }, { path: 'login', component: LoginComponent }, { path: '**', redirectTo: '/login' } ]; ``` I've also ensured that the `AuthService` has a method `isLoggedIn()` that returns a boolean value based on the user's authentication status. However, when I try to access the `/feature` route without being logged in, I see the login page's URL in the address bar, but the content is blank and doesn't show the LoginComponent. I've double-checked that the LoginComponent is declared correctly in the appropriate module, and it works when navigated to directly. I've also tried adding a delay in the guard's redirect to ensure the navigation process isn't being interrupted, but that doesn't seem to help either. Is there something I'm missing in the lazy loading configuration or Auth Guard implementation? This is part of a larger microservice I'm building. What are your experiences with this? This is happening in both development and production on Windows 10. Any ideas how to fix this? I'm on Windows 10 using the latest version of Typescript. I'd really appreciate any guidance on this.
