I use return Observable<boolean>for canActivate(). For testing, the following function was configured, and it is correctly enabled, the component is displayed.
canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot): Observable<boolean> {
return Observable.from([{ admin: true }]).map(x =>
{
if (x.admin) return true;
return false;
});
}
However, the behavior of the actual code is that I remain on the login component, despite the console output indicating that the route should be activated. The only real difference from the above test is that I call the service this.auth.isAdmin()instead of using Observable.from. The result this.auth.isAdmin()is Observable<boolean>true.
canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot): Observable<boolean> {
const isAdmin$ = this.auth.isAdmin();
return isAdmin$.map(x =>
{
console.log('isAdmin returned ' + x);
if (!x) {
console.log('redirectToLogin');
this.auth.redirectToLogin(state.url);
return false;
} else {
console.log('canActivate = true');
return true;
}
});
}
Here is the route:
{
path: 'admin',
canActivate: [AdminGuard],
children: [
...adminRoutes
]
},
Here is my console output:
isAdmin returned false
admin-guard.service.ts:27redirectToLogin
auth.service.ts:36 navigating to stored path "/admin"
auth.service.ts:21 Object {isAdmin: true, isPaid: false, $key: "xYFs8kMDpKdYKxDw4AL21FtnSWn1"}
admin-guard.service.ts:25 isAdmin returned true
admin-guard.service.ts:31 canActivate = true
And here is isAdmin () function in case this is interesting:
isAdmin(): Observable<boolean> {
if (!this.auth) return Observable.from([false]);
const uid = this.auth.uid;
return this.af.database.object(`user/${uid}`).do(x => console.log(x)).map(x => x.isAdmin);
}
