qdt-components (Qlik Demo Team Components) is a library of components that we have developed in the demo team and that have been used in most of our mashups found in webapps.qlik.com and demos.qlik.com. It's a collection of filters, tables, barcharts, selection toolbars, or even simple getting/creating object methods from the Visualization Api. You do not have to worry about connection strings, loading Requirejs, jQuery etc. Everything is taken care for you! The library can be used in a simple html page by loading the qdt-components.js or in React and Angular2+ via npm.

Today, I will show you how to load a simple object and create a session barchart, in simple html and Angular 5

Simple HTML

  • In your HTML, add the following:

 

 

 

<head>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="qdt-components.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="qdt1"></div>
</body>

 

 

 

  • In your Javascript code, add:

 

 

 

var qConfig = {
   "config": {
      "host": "your-sense-server.com",
      "secure": true,
      "port": 443,
      "prefix": "/",
      "appId": "133dab5d-8f56-4d40-b3e0-a6b401391bde"
   },
   "connections": {
      "vizApi": true,
      "engineApi": false
   }
}

var QdtComponent = new window.qdtComponents.default(qConfig.config, qConfig.connections);

var element = document.getElementById('qdt1');

QdtComponent.render('QdtViz', {id: 'a5e0f12c-38f5-4da9-8f3f-0e4566b28398', height:'300px'}, element);

 

 

 

And you are done.

Angular 5

npm install --save qdt-components
  • Create new component by typing in the command line
ng generate component components/qdt-components --style=less
  • In your qdt-component.component.ts import the library and import or set the qConfig with the connection details

 

 

import { Component, OnInit, ElementRef, Input } from '@angular/core';
// import * as qConfig from '../../../qConfig.json';

import QdtComponents from 'qdt-components';

let qConfig = {
   "config": {
      "host": "sense-demo.qlik.com",
      "secure": true,
      "port": 443,
      "prefix": "/",
      "appId": "133dab5d-8f56-4d40-b3e0-a6b401391bde"
   },
   "connections": {
      "vizApi": true,
      "engineApi": false
   }
}

 

 

  • Replace the class with:

 

 

export class QdtComponentComponent implements OnInit {
   @Input() Component: Function;
   @Input() props: object;

   static QdtComponent = new QdtComponents(qConfig.config, qConfig.connections);

   constructor(private elementRef: ElementRef) { }

   ngOnInit() {
      QdtComponentComponent.QdtComponent.render(this.Component, this.props, this.elementRef.nativeElement);
   }
}

 

 

  • After this, you can start using it in any other component. In the HTML, add:

 

 

<qdt-component [Component]="'QdtViz'" [props]="{id: 'a5e0f12c-38f5-4da9-8f3f-0e4566b28398', height:'300px'}"></qdt-component>
