Angular Universal : ReferenceError: Document is not defined

[iwoogy]

Hello

Thanks for your component, it has been really useful.

I'm about to deploy and I found an issue with Angular Universal.

I got the error ReferenceError: Document is not defined.

I followed the instruction on Angular Universal by adding global['window'] = window; in server.ts

Thanks for your help

Do window lib installed and import already ? Also are u using the latest ngx-lightbox. Latest version should be 2.1.1

I upgraded ngx-lightbox to version 2.1.1 from 2.0.0 and I installed window too.

I required window in server.ts

Then I have this error :

Do you have an idea how to fix it ?

[themyth92]

Hey I dont know whether this error relates to lightbox. Maybe this issue is related ?

[iwoogy]

Could be.

I think it's better to avoid dependencies on window for Angular Universal.

Let's close this ticket.

Yeah I agree that using extra dependancy is not really needed. However, if u have any solutions that would not require using window dependancy, PR is always welcomed and I would be more than happy to merge it.

I encountered the "window" problem. I solved it using "domino". I share my files, maybe for someone's benefit.

package.json

server.ts
