Angular

Integrating with Alan

To integrate an Angular app with Alan:

1. Add the Alan Web SDK to your app. You can do it in two ways:

   • With the npm package

   • In the browser library mode

   NPM package

   To install the Alan Web SDK with the npm package:

   1. In the Terminal, run the command:

      npm install @alan-ai/alan-sdk-web --save
      

   2. Import alanBtn to your Angular component:

      import alanBtn from "@alan-ai/alan-sdk-web";
      

   Browser library mode

   To load the Alan Web SDK in the browser library mode, add the alan_lib.min.js library to the index.html file using the <script> tag:

   <script type="text/javascript" src="https://studio.alan.app/web/lib/alan_lib.min.js"></script>
   

2. Add the Alan button to your component:

   export class AppComponent {
   
       alanBtnInstance;
   
       constructor(){
           this.alanBtnInstance = alanBtn({
               key: 'YOUR_KEY_FROM_ALAN_STUDIO_HERE',
               onCommand: (commandData) => {
                   if (commandData.command === 'go:back') {
                       // Call the client code that will react to the received command
                   }
               },
           });
       }
   }
