NgxAngularQueryBuilder

The goal of this project is to enable Angular 12+ support for the original angular2-query-builder. It is not production ready. This project may not be maintained. Should the original project become active again, this library may be abandoned.

I suggest forking this project if it is critical to your project because I may not update this regularly. If you want to contribute to maintaining this project open an issue.

The changelog for the package is here: https://github.com/raysuelzer/ngx-angular-query-builder/blob/main/projects/ngx-angular-query-builder/CHANGELOG.md

This project uses code from https://github.com/designermanjeets/Angular-QueryBuilder a fork of https://github.com/zebzhao/Angular-QueryBuilder both developed under the MIT License.

Customizing with Angular Material

Example of how you can completely customize the query component with another library like Angular Material. For the full example, please look at the source code provided in the demo.

app.component.html

<query-builder [(ngModel)]="query" [config]="config">
  <ng-container
    *queryButtonGroup="let ruleset; let addRule=addRule; let addRuleSet=addRuleSet; let removeRuleSet=removeRuleSet"
  >
    <button type="button" mat-button (click)="addRule()">+ Rule</button>
    <button type="button" mat-button (click)="addRuleSet()">+ Ruleset</button>
    <button type="button" mat-button (click)="removeRuleSet()">- Ruleset</button>
  </ng-container>
  <ng-container *queryRemoveButton="let rule; let removeRule=removeRule">
    <button type="button" mat-icon-button color="accent" (click)="removeRule(rule)">
      <mat-icon>remove</mat-icon>
    </button>
  </ng-container>
  <ng-container *querySwitchGroup="let ruleset">
    <mat-radio-group *ngIf="ruleset" [(ngModel)]="ruleset.condition">
      <mat-radio-button value="and">And</mat-radio-button>
      <mat-radio-button value="or">Or</mat-radio-button>
    </mat-radio-group>
  </ng-container>
  <ng-container *queryField="let rule; let fields=fields; let onChange=onChange">
    <mat-form-field>
      <mat-select [(ngModel)]="rule.field" (ngModelChange)="onChange($event, rule)">
        <mat-option *ngFor="let field of fields" [value]="field.value">{{field.name}}</mat-option>
      </mat-select>
    </mat-form-field>
  </ng-container>
  <ng-container *queryOperator="let rule; let operators=operators">
    <mat-form-field>
      <mat-select [(ngModel)]="rule.operator">
        <mat-option *ngFor="let value of operators" [value]="value">{{value}}</mat-option>
      </mat-select>
    </mat-form-field>
  </ng-container>
  <!-- Override input component for 'boolean' type -->
  <ng-container *queryInput="let rule; type: 'boolean'">
    <mat-checkbox [(ngModel)]="rule.value"></mat-checkbox>
  </ng-container>
  <!-- Override input component for 'category' type -->
  <ng-container *queryInput="let rule; let field=field; let options=options; type: 'category'">
    <mat-form-field>
      <mat-select [(ngModel)]="rule.value" [placeholder]="field.name">
        <mat-option *ngFor="let opt of options" [value]="opt.value"> {{ opt.name }} </mat-option>
      </mat-select>
    </mat-form-field>
  </ng-container>
  ...
</query-builder>
