How to inject upgraded Angular 1 service/factory to Angular 2 component in ES5?

Question

I have an Angular1 service with name, say, \'myService\'

I then upgraded it using the Angular2 UpgradeAdapter like this:

var upgradeAdapter = new ng.         


        

Answer 1

Use the array notation for constructor DI of services:

.Class({
    constructor: [MyService, function (service) {
      ...
 }],

Answer 2

To complete the pixelbits' answer, you need also define my service within the providers list either:

• At the application level

  document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() {
    ng.platform.browser.bootstrap(Cmp, [MyService]);
  });
  

• At the component level

  var Cmp = ng.core.
   Component({
     selector: 'cmp',
     providers: [ MyService ]
   }).
   (...)
   Class({
     constructor: [MyService, function(service) {
     }]
   });
  

It depends on what you want to do: share your service instance for all elements in the Angular2 application or per component.

Edit

In fact, there is a subtlety. IN the case of upgrade you need not to bootstrap using the ng.platform.browser.bootstrap function but the one from the upgrade object.

upgrade.bootstrap(document.body, ['heroApp']);

Where heroApp is the Angular1 module containing services and factories I want to use in the Angular2 application.

In fact, when you call the upgradeNg1Provider method on the upgrade, corresponding providers are registered within its associated injector. This means that you don't need to specify them at described above.

So you simply need to do that where you want to inject:

(...)
Class({
  constructor: [ ng.core.Inject('customService'),
                 ng.core.Inject('customFactory'),
                 function(cService, cFactory) {
  }]
});
