Externalize configuration

[iGitScor]

For now, the global configuration (company name and contact) are set in the app.ts file and called directly in the layout file. It could be great to have a specific service.

layout.html

<div class="container">&copy; {{ company }}</div>

Hi
I just came across this issue from Hacktoberfest.
What do you mean by "having a specific service" ? Could you elaborate.

Hi @mitesh-mutha,

The idea was to have an angular2 service which load json configuration for example and inject to the application to display data in the layout.html template

The configuration in github have to be anonymous
configuration.json.dist
The installation documentation should mentioned the fact that the configuration.json.dist
has to be filled and duplicated as configuration.json

Feel free to ask me more question if the issue is not clear.

You can make any kind of proposal which respond to the issue
