})

export class PostService {

},

{

id: 2,

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

import { PostService } from './post.service';

@Component({

selector: 'app-root',

templateUrl: './app.component.html',

styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']

})

export class AppComponent {

title = 'appNewService';

posts = [];

constructor(private postService: PostService){

this.posts = postService.getPosts();

}

}

View File

src/app/app.component.html

<h1>How to create service in angular 8 using cli - ItSolutionStuff.com</h1>

<ul>

<li *ngFor="let post of posts">

<strong>{{ post.id }})</strong>{{ post.title }}
