A Webpack loader for Angular that enables string-based module loading with the `Angular Router`

*Package was previously named `angular2-router-loader`*

## Installation

`npm install angular-router-loader --save-dev`

## Usage

Add the `angular-router-loader` to your typescript loaders

**Angular Version >= 5**

```ts
loaders: [
{
test: /\.ts$/,
loaders: [
'awesome-typescript-loader'
]
},
{
test: /\.(ts|js)$/,
loaders: [
'angular-router-loader'
]
}
]
```

**Angular Version < 5**

```ts
loaders: [
{
test: /\.ts$/,
loaders: [
'awesome-typescript-loader',
'angular-router-loader'
]
}
]
```

## Lazy Loading

In your route configuration, use `loadChildren` with a relative path to your lazy loaded angular module. The string is delimited with a `#` where the right side of split is the angular module class name.

```ts
import { Routes } from '@angular/router';

export const routes: Routes = [
{ path: 'lazy', loadChildren: './lazy.module#LazyModule' }
];
```

**NOTE**: When specifying a relative path to lazy loaded module, one of the following two conditions *must* hold:

* The routes are defined in the same module file where it is imported with `RouterModule.forRoot` or `RouterModule.forChild`
* The routes are defined in a separate routing file, and that routing file is a sibling of module file.

## Synchronous Loading

For synchronous module loading, add the `sync=true` as a query string value to your `loadChildren` string. The module will be included in your bundle and not lazy-loaded.

```ts
import { Routes } from '@angular/router';

export const routes: Routes = [
{ path: 'lazy', loadChildren: './lazy.module#LazyModule?sync=true' }
];
```
