Web Workers in Angular


I'm trying to figure out why when I run npx ng generate web-worker app, I'm getting this error: Schematic "web-worker" not found in collection "@schematics/angular".

my angular cli is: 6.2.7 angular-core is: 6.1.7

what version of angular started allowing developers to generate web-worker? is this not a good use case for npx? I also tried using ng from my node_modules and got the same error.

let me know if I need to post more info.

Alternatively I would like to know how to implement web-workers for my angular app; ng generate seemed like a streamlined way to do so, but I'm open to other options if need be.


Solution

  • angular cli support for web worker starts from Angular 8.
    To upgrade you angular version for project you can follow these steps-
    1. npm install -g @angular/cli
    2. ng update @angular/cli @angular/core
