ngx-navigate-back

ngx-navigate-back is a lightweight Angular library designed to simplify navigation management within Angular applications. With ngx-navigate-back, you can easily implement a "back" functionality similar to the browser's native back button, allowing users to navigate to the previous page within your Angular application.

Features

• Simple Integration: Easy to integrate into your Angular application.
• Record Navigation History: Record the navigation history to enable smooth backward navigation.
• Retrieve Navigation History: Get the navigation history as an array.
• Navigate Back: Go back to the previous page with a simple function call.
• Get Last URL: Retrieve the last visited URL to display along with the back button or anywhere else in your application.

Functions

• recordUrlHistory(): Begins recording the navigation history.
• getHistory(): Retrieves the navigation history as an array.
• navigateBack(): Navigates back to the previous page.
• getLastUrl(): Returns the last visited URL, which can be used to display or reference the last URL in the app.

Installation

Install ngx-navigate-back via npm:

npm install ngx-navigate-back

Usage

1. Import NgxNavigateBackService in your Angular component:

import { NgxNavigateBackService } from 'ngx-navigate-back';

2. Inject NgxNavigateBackService into your component:

constructor(public navigation: NgxNavigateBackService) {
  this.navigation.recordUrlHistory();
}

3. Use the navigateBack() function to implement the "back" functionality, and use getLastUrl() to display the last URL::

<button (click)="navigation.navigateBack()">Back to Previous Page {{ navigation.getLastUrl() }}</button>
