Angular-Polymer

angular-polymer is a directive factory that aims at bridging the gaps between using Polymer based Web Components in Angular applications.

Note: Currently Angular-Polymer only works with Angular 2.x, or Angular-CLI 1.0.0-rc.2 and lower. Work is being done to upgrade the library to work the latest Angular & CLI. Want to help Contribute?

In case you are using Angular 4+ and Polymer 2+ you might want to check out https://github.com/hotforfeature/origami

import { NgModule, CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA, Component } from '@angular/core';
import { PolymerModule, PolymerElement } from '@vaadin/angular2-polymer';

@NgModule({
  imports: [ PolymerModule ],
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    PolymerElement('paper-input'),
    PolymerElement('vaadin-combo-box')
  ],
  bootstrap: [ AppComponent ],
  schemas: [ CUSTOM_ELEMENTS_SCHEMA ]
})
export class AppModule { }

@Component({
  selector: 'app-component',
  template: `
    <paper-input [(value)]="myValue"></paper-input>
    <vaadin-combo-box [(value)]="myValue" [items]="myItems"></vaadin-combo-box>
  `
})
class AppComponent {
  myValue = 'A';
  myItems = ['A', 'B', 'C'];
}
