How to tell if Angular 6 App is in production mode outside of Angular project












0















I have some Google Analytics code that is outside of the Angular project. I only want to include it if the environment is production.



I know there is an environment variable inside the Angular project that you can reference like this inside typescript... 



if (environment.production) {

  // do stuff

}


That doesn't help if there is some static code outside of Angular though. I tried putting the Google analytics code inside Angular, but that seems to have issues with the scope not being found and typescript didn't like it.



Right now the best solution I have is to manually check the hostname which probably isn't the best solution (this is in the index.html outside the angular app)... 



<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-00000000-0"></script>

<script>

        if(location.hostname === "productionurl.com") {

                // insert google analytics tracking code

                window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || ;

                function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}        

                gtag('js', new Date());        

                gtag('config', 'UA-000000000-0');

        }

</script>


I am used to using web.config files which would be simple, but this project uses an angular config instead to deal with environment variables.



Maybe there is a way to get the environment from something like "getAllAngularRootElements()" in vanilla javascript, but I haven't found a way.

          For me the most clean solution at the moment is to use a second index.html file, for example index.prod.html, and make it replace the original one during the build process by using the "fileReplacements" property in the "production" env config inside angular.json.

          How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

          Image
          3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question

          Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

          Image
          up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title. Any help appreciated, as always. documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book} % Packages[![enter image description here][1]][1] usepackage[left=3.5cm, right=3.5cm, top=4.3cm, bottom=4.25cm]{geometry} usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} usepackage{libertine} usepackage[libertine]{newtx

          Can I use Tabulator js library in my java Spring + Thymeleaf project?

          Image
          0 I want to add Tabulator js to my java project. I added tabulator.min.js, tabulator.min.css to resources folder. After that added to my html page these dependencies as recommending in readme.md. <link rel="stylesheet" th:href="@{/css/tabulator.min.css}"> <script type="text/javascript" th:src="@{/js/tabulator.min.js}"></script> Now my tables view all elements, that I have in the html page, but not correct. In the documentation of Tabulator is example how to create header and table, var table = new Tabulator("#example-table", { columns:[ {title:"Name", field:"name", sorter:"string", width:200, editor:true}, {title:"Age", field:"age", sorter:"
