Capacitor with Angular

Angular-specific patterns and best practices for Capacitor app development — project structure, services, lifecycle hooks, NgZone integration, and plugin usage.

Prerequisites

Capacitor 6, 7, or 8 app with Angular 16+.
Node.js and npm installed.
Angular CLI installed (npm install -g @angular/cli).
For iOS: Xcode installed.
For Android: Android Studio installed.

Agent Behavior

Auto-detect before asking. Check the project for angular.json, package.json, capacitor.config.ts or capacitor.config.json, and existing directory structure. Only ask the user when something cannot be detected.
Guide step-by-step. Walk the user through the process one step at a time.
Adapt to project style. Detect whether the project uses standalone components or NgModule-based architecture and adapt code examples accordingly.

Procedures

Step 1: Analyze the Project

Auto-detect the following by reading project files:

Angular version: Read @angular/core version from package.json.
Capacitor version: Read @capacitor/core version from package.json. If not present, Capacitor has not been added yet — proceed to Step 2.
Architecture style: Check src/main.ts for bootstrapApplication (standalone) vs. platformBrowserDynamic().bootstrapModule (NgModule). Check angular.json for further confirmation.
Platforms: Check which directories exist (android/, ios/).
Capacitor config format: Check for capacitor.config.ts (TypeScript) or capacitor.config.json (JSON).
Build output directory: Read outputPath from angular.json under projects > <project-name> > architect > build > options > outputPath. This is needed for Capacitor's webDir setting.

Step 2: Add Capacitor to an Angular Project

Skip if @capacitor/core is already in package.json.

Install Capacitor core and CLI:

npm install @capacitor/core
npm install -D @capacitor/cli

Initialize Capacitor:
```
npx cap init
```
When prompted, set the web directory to the Angular build output path detected in Step 1. For Angular 17+ with the application builder, this is typically dist/<project-name>/browser. For older Angular versions, it is typically dist/<project-name>.

Verify the webDir value in the generated capacitor.config.ts or capacitor.config.json matches the Angular build output path. If incorrect, update it:

capacitor.config.ts:

import type { CapacitorConfig } from '@capacitor/cli';

const config: CapacitorConfig = {
  appId: 'com.example.app',
  appName: 'my-app',
  webDir: 'dist/my-app/browser',
};

export default config;

capacitor.config.json:

{
  "appId": "com.example.app",
  "appName": "my-app",
  "webDir": "dist/my-app/browser"
}

Build the Angular app and add platforms:

ng build
npm install @capacitor/android @capacitor/ios
npx cap add android
npx cap add ios
npx cap sync

Step 3: Project Structure

A Capacitor Angular project has this structure:

my-app/
├── android/                  # Android native project
├── ios/                      # iOS native project
├── src/
│   ├── app/
│   │   ├── app.component.ts
│   │   ├── app.config.ts     # Standalone: app configuration
│   │   ├── app.module.ts     # NgModule: root module
│   │   ├── app.routes.ts     # Routing configuration
│   │   └── services/         # Angular services for Capacitor plugins
│   ├── environments/
│   │   ├── environment.ts
│   │   └── environment.prod.ts
│   ├── index.html
│   └── main.ts
├── angular.json
├── capacitor.config.ts       # or capacitor.config.json
├── package.json
└── tsconfig.json

Key points:

The android/ and ios/ directories contain native projects and should be committed to version control.
The src/ directory contains the Angular app, which is the web layer of the Capacitor app.
Capacitor plugins are called from Angular services or components inside src/app/.

Step 4: Using Capacitor Plugins in Angular

Capacitor plugins are plain TypeScript APIs. Import and call them directly in Angular components or services.

Direct Usage in a Component

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Geolocation } from '@capacitor/geolocation';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-location',
  template: `
    <div>
      <p>Latitude: {{ latitude }}</p>
      <p>Longitude: {{ longitude }}</p>
      <button (click)="getCurrentPosition()">Get Location</button>
    </div>
  `,
  standalone: true,
})
export class LocationComponent {
  latitude: number | null = null;
  longitude: number | null = null;

  async getCurrentPosition() {
    const position = await Geolocation.getCurrentPosition();
    this.latitude = position.coords.latitude;
    this.longitude = position.coords.longitude;
  }
}

Wrapping Plugins in Angular Services (Recommended)

Wrapping Capacitor plugins in Angular services provides dependency injection, testability, and a single place to handle platform differences:

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Camera, CameraResultType, CameraSource, Photo } from '@capacitor/camera';
import { Capacitor } from '@capacitor/core';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class CameraService {
  async takePhoto(): Promise<Photo> {
    return Camera.getPhoto({
      quality: 90,
      allowEditing: false,
      resultType: CameraResultType.Uri,
      source: CameraSource.Camera,
    });
  }

  async pickFromGallery(): Promise<Photo> {
    return Camera.getPhoto({
      quality: 90,
      allowEditing: false,
      resultType: CameraResultType.Uri,
      source: CameraSource.Photos,
    });
  }

  isNativePlatform(): boolean {
    return Capacitor.isNativePlatform();
  }
}

Use the service in a component:

import { Component, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { CameraService } from '../services/camera.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-photo',
  template: `
    <button (click)="takePhoto()">Take Photo</button>
    <img *ngIf="photoUrl" [src]="photoUrl" alt="Captured photo" />
  `,
  standalone: true,
})
export class PhotoComponent {
  private cameraService = inject(CameraService);
  photoUrl: string | null = null;

  async takePhoto() {
    const photo = await this.cameraService.takePhoto();
    this.photoUrl = photo.webPath ?? null;
  }
}

Step 5: NgZone Integration for Plugin Event Listeners

Capacitor plugin event listeners run outside Angular's NgZone execution context. When a plugin listener updates component state, Angular's change detection does not automatically trigger. Wrap the handler logic in NgZone.run() to fix this.

Without NgZone (broken — UI does not update):

import { Component, OnInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core';
import { Network, ConnectionStatus } from '@capacitor/network';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-network',
  template: `<p>Status: {{ networkStatus }}</p>`,
  standalone: true,
})
export class NetworkComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  networkStatus = 'Unknown';
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  async ngOnInit() {
    // BUG: This callback runs outside NgZone — the template will not update.
    this.listenerHandle = await Network.addListener('networkStatusChange', (status) => {
      this.networkStatus = status.connected ? 'Online' : 'Offline';
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}

With NgZone (correct — UI updates properly):

import { Component, NgZone, OnInit, OnDestroy, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { Network, ConnectionStatus } from '@capacitor/network';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-network',
  template: `<p>Status: {{ networkStatus }}</p>`,
  standalone: true,
})
export class NetworkComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  private ngZone = inject(NgZone);
  networkStatus = 'Unknown';
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  async ngOnInit() {
    this.listenerHandle = await Network.addListener('networkStatusChange', (status) => {
      this.ngZone.run(() => {
        this.networkStatus = status.connected ? 'Online' : 'Offline';
      });
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}

Rule: Always use NgZone.run() inside Capacitor plugin event listener callbacks that update component or service state bound to templates.

Step 6: Lifecycle Hook Patterns

Use Angular lifecycle hooks to manage Capacitor plugin listeners. Register listeners in ngOnInit and remove them in ngOnDestroy to prevent memory leaks.

Service-Based Listener Management

For app-wide listeners (e.g., network status, app state), use a service initialized at app startup:

import { Injectable, NgZone, OnDestroy, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { App } from '@capacitor/app';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';
import { BehaviorSubject } from 'rxjs';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class AppStateService implements OnDestroy {
  private ngZone = inject(NgZone);
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  private isActiveSubject = new BehaviorSubject<boolean>(true);
  isActive$ = this.isActiveSubject.asObservable();

  constructor() {
    this.initListener();
  }

  private async initListener() {
    this.listenerHandle = await App.addListener('appStateChange', (state) => {
      this.ngZone.run(() => {
        this.isActiveSubject.next(state.isActive);
      });
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}

Initialize the service at app startup to ensure it runs immediately. In standalone apps, use APP_INITIALIZER or inject it in the root component. In NgModule apps, inject it in AppComponent:

Standalone (app.config.ts):

import { ApplicationConfig, APP_INITIALIZER } from '@angular/core';
import { AppStateService } from './services/app-state.service';

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [
    {
      provide: APP_INITIALIZER,
      useFactory: (appStateService: AppStateService) => () => {},
      deps: [AppStateService],
      multi: true,
    },
  ],
};

NgModule (app.component.ts):

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { AppStateService } from './services/app-state.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
})
export class AppComponent {
  constructor(private appStateService: AppStateService) {}
}

Step 7: Platform Detection

Use Capacitor.isNativePlatform() and Capacitor.getPlatform() to conditionally run native-only code:

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Capacitor } from '@capacitor/core';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class PlatformService {
  isNative(): boolean {
    return Capacitor.isNativePlatform();
  }

  getPlatform(): 'web' | 'ios' | 'and

# Capacitor with Angular

Angular-specific patterns and best practices for Capacitor app development — project structure, services, lifecycle hooks, NgZone integration, and plugin usage.

## Prerequisites

1. **Capacitor 6, 7, or 8** app with Angular 16+.
2. Node.js and npm installed.
3. Angular CLI installed (`npm install -g @angular/cli`).
4. For iOS: Xcode installed.
5. For Android: Android Studio installed.

## Agent Behavior

- **Auto-detect before asking.** Check the project for `angular.json`, `package.json`, `capacitor.config.ts` or `capacitor.config.json`, and existing directory structure. Only ask the user when something cannot be detected.
- **Guide step-by-step.** Walk the user through the process one step at a time.
- **Adapt to project style.** Detect whether the project uses standalone components or NgModule-based architecture and adapt code examples accordingly.

## Procedures

4. **Platforms**: Check which directories exist (`android/`, `ios/`).
5. **Capacitor config format**: Check for `capacitor.config.ts` (TypeScript) or `capacitor.config.json` (JSON).
6. **Build output directory**: Read `outputPath` from `angular.json` under `projects > <project-name> > architect > build > options > outputPath`. This is needed for Capacitor's `webDir` setting.

### Step 2: Add Capacitor to an Angular Project

Skip if `@capacitor/core` is already in `package.json`.

1. Install Capacitor core and CLI:

   ```bash
   npm install @capacitor/core
   npm install -D @capacitor/cli
   ```

2. Initialize Capacitor:

   ```bash
   npx cap init
   ```

   When prompted, set the **web directory** to the Angular build output path detected in Step 1. For Angular 17+ with the application builder, this is typically `dist/<project-name>/browser`. For older Angular versions, it is typically `dist/<project-name>`.

3. Verify the `webDir` value in the generated `capacitor.config.ts` or `capacitor.config.json` matches the Angular build output path. If incorrect, update it:

   **`capacitor.config.ts`:**
   ```typescript
   import type { CapacitorConfig } from '@capacitor/cli';

   const config: CapacitorConfig = {
     appId: 'com.example.app',
     appName: 'my-app',
     webDir: 'dist/my-app/browser',
   };

   export default config;
   ```

   **`capacitor.config.json`:**
   ```json
   {
     "appId": "com.example.app",
     "appName": "my-app",
     "webDir": "dist/my-app/browser"
   }
   ```

4. Build the Angular app and add platforms:

   ```bash
   ng build
   npm install @capacitor/android @capacitor/ios
   npx cap add android
   npx cap add ios
   npx cap sync
   ```

### Step 3: Project Structure

A Capacitor Angular project has this structure:

```
my-app/
├── android/                  # Android native project
├── ios/                      # iOS native project
├── src/
│   ├── app/
│   │   ├── app.component.ts
│   │   ├── app.config.ts     # Standalone: app configuration
│   │   ├── app.module.ts     # NgModule: root module
│   │   ├── app.routes.ts     # Routing configuration
│   │   └── services/         # Angular services for Capacitor plugins
│   ├── environments/
│   │   ├── environment.ts
│   │   └── environment.prod.ts
│   ├── index.html
│   └── main.ts
├── angular.json
├── capacitor.config.ts       # or capacitor.config.json
├── package.json
└── tsconfig.json
```

Key points:
- The `android/` and `ios/` directories contain native projects and should be committed to version control.
- The `src/` directory contains the Angular app, which is the web layer of the Capacitor app.
- Capacitor plugins are called from Angular services or components inside `src/app/`.

@Component({
  selector: 'app-location',
  template: `

      <p>Latitude: {{ latitude }}</p>
      <p>Longitude: {{ longitude }}</p>
      <button (click)="getCurrentPosition()">Get Location</button>
    </div>
  `,
  standalone: true,
})
export class LocationComponent {
  latitude: number | null = null;
  longitude: number | null = null;

  async getCurrentPosition() {
    const position = await Geolocation.getCurrentPosition();
    this.latitude = position.coords.latitude;
    this.longitude = position.coords.longitude;
  }
}
```

#### Wrapping Plugins in Angular Services (Recommended)

Wrapping Capacitor plugins in Angular services provides dependency injection, testability, and a single place to handle platform differences:

```typescript
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Camera, CameraResultType, CameraSource, Photo } from '@capacitor/camera';
import { Capacitor } from '@capacitor/core';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class CameraService {
  async takePhoto(): Promise<Photo> {
    return Camera.getPhoto({
      quality: 90,
      allowEditing: false,
      resultType: CameraResultType.Uri,
      source: CameraSource.Camera,
    });
  }

  async pickFromGallery(): Promise<Photo> {
    return Camera.getPhoto({
      quality: 90,
      allowEditing: false,
      resultType: CameraResultType.Uri,
      source: CameraSource.Photos,
    });
  }

  isNativePlatform(): boolean {
    return Capacitor.isNativePlatform();
  }
}
```

Use the service in a component:

```typescript
import { Component, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { CameraService } from '../services/camera.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-photo',
  template: `
    <button (click)="takePhoto()">Take Photo</button>
    <img *ngIf="photoUrl" [src]="photoUrl" alt="Captured photo" />
  `,
  standalone: true,
})
export class PhotoComponent {
  private cameraService = inject(CameraService);
  photoUrl: string | null = null;

  async takePhoto() {
    const photo = await this.cameraService.takePhoto();
    this.photoUrl = photo.webPath ?? null;

**Without NgZone (broken — UI does not update):**

```typescript
import { Component, OnInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core';
import { Network, ConnectionStatus } from '@capacitor/network';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-network',
  template: `<p>Status: {{ networkStatus }}</p>`,
  standalone: true,
})
export class NetworkComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  networkStatus = 'Unknown';
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  async ngOnInit() {
    // BUG: This callback runs outside NgZone — the template will not update.
    this.listenerHandle = await Network.addListener('networkStatusChange', (status) => {
      this.networkStatus = status.connected ? 'Online' : 'Offline';
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}
```

**With NgZone (correct — UI updates properly):**

```typescript
import { Component, NgZone, OnInit, OnDestroy, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { Network, ConnectionStatus } from '@capacitor/network';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-network',
  template: `<p>Status: {{ networkStatus }}</p>`,
  standalone: true,
})
export class NetworkComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  private ngZone = inject(NgZone);
  networkStatus = 'Unknown';
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  async ngOnInit() {
    this.listenerHandle = await Network.addListener('networkStatusChange', (status) => {
      this.ngZone.run(() => {
        this.networkStatus = status.connected ? 'Online' : 'Offline';
      });
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}
```

**Rule:** Always use `NgZone.run()` inside Capacitor plugin event listener callbacks that update component or service state bound to templates.

Use Angular lifecycle hooks to manage Capacitor plugin listeners. Register listeners in `ngOnInit` and remove them in `ngOnDestroy` to prevent memory leaks.

#### Service-Based Listener Management

For app-wide listeners (e.g., network status, app state), use a service initialized at app startup:

```typescript
import { Injectable, NgZone, OnDestroy, inject } from '@angular/core';
import { App } from '@capacitor/app';
import { PluginListenerHandle } from '@capacitor/core';
import { BehaviorSubject } from 'rxjs';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class AppStateService implements OnDestroy {
  private ngZone = inject(NgZone);
  private listenerHandle: PluginListenerHandle | null = null;

  private isActiveSubject = new BehaviorSubject<boolean>(true);
  isActive$ = this.isActiveSubject.asObservable();

  constructor() {
    this.initListener();
  }

  private async initListener() {
    this.listenerHandle = await App.addListener('appStateChange', (state) => {
      this.ngZone.run(() => {
        this.isActiveSubject.next(state.isActive);
      });
    });
  }

  async ngOnDestroy() {
    await this.listenerHandle?.remove();
  }
}
```

Initialize the service at app startup to ensure it runs immediately. In **standalone** apps, use `APP_INITIALIZER` or inject it in the root component. In **NgModule** apps, inject it in `AppComponent`:

**Standalone (`app.config.ts`):**

```typescript
import { ApplicationConfig, APP_INITIALIZER } from '@angular/core';
import { AppStateService } from './services/app-state.service';

export const appConfig: ApplicationConfig = {
  providers: [
    {
      provide: APP_INITIALIZER,
      useFactory: (appStateService: AppStateService) => () => {},
      deps: [AppStateService],
      multi: true,
    },
  ],
};
```

**NgModule (`app.component.ts`):**

```typescript
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { AppStateService } from './services/app-state.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
})
export class AppComponent {
  constructor(private appStateService: AppStateService) {}
}
```

### Step 7: Platform Detection

Use `Capacitor.isNativePlatform()` and `Capacitor.getPlatform()` to conditionally run native-only code:

```typescript
import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Capacitor } from '@capacitor/core';

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root',
})
export class PlatformService {
  isNative(): boolean {
    return Capacitor.isNativePlatform();
  }

  getPlatform(): 'web' | 'ios' | 'and
