Angular - Add target to router navigate

Question

What I want to do is to open the target of router navigate in another tab or in a popup. My instruction is this:

private router: Router;
this.router.navigate(['/page', id]);

In routing I have:

 const routes: Routes = [
{
    path: '',
    component: LayoutComponent,
    children: [
        { path: 'page', loadChildren: './page/page.module#PageModule' }
    ]
}
];

I would like to open this link in another tab or in popup window. What can I do?

---

this is the code of page.ts

@Component({
 selector: 'app-etichetta',
 templateUrl: './page.component.html',
 styleUrls: ['./page.component.scss'],
 animations: [routerTransition()]
})
export class PageComponent implements OnInit {


 constructor(private router: Router,
    private route: ActivatedRoute,
    public appService: AppService) {
 }


 ngOnInit() {

 }
}

and this is the html:

<div [@routerTransition]>
  <br>
  <div class="row">

  </div>
</div>

Answer 1

Angular doesn't support navigating to a new tab , you can use window.open to do this

window.open(url, '_blank');

Answer 2

To redirect manually you should first create an URL where to redirect using createUrlTree method, and then redirect.

const url = this.router.createUrlTree(['/page', id])
window.open(url.toString(), '_blank')

Declarative navigation should work.

<a target="_blank" [routerLink]="['/page', id]">
  Link
</a>

Answer 3

Use this in Angular component HTML file

<a class="btn btn-primary" target="_blank" routerLink="/create-playlist" > Create Playlist </a>

Answer 4

The router doesn't have an option to open the link in a new tab. That said, there is a workaround – you can use target="_blank" of a hidden link in your template, reference it and click it:

<a #link
  style="visibility: hidden; display: none;" 
  [routerLink]="['/page', id]"
  target="_blank"
  queryParamsHandling="merge"
></a>

@ViewChild('link', { static: false }) private link: ElementRef;

this.link.nativeElement.click();

Answer 5

import { Location } from '@angular/common';
import { Router } from '@angular/router';

export class YourComponent {

   constructor(private router: Router){}

   openNewTab (){
           const host: string =  location.origin;
           const url: string = host + '/#/' + String(this.router.createUrlTree(['/main/product'], { queryParams: { key: encryptData } }));
           window.open(url, '_blank');

   }
}
