Error when trying to inject a service into an angular component EXCEPTION Can t resolve all parameters for component why

Question

I ve built a basic app in Angular  but I have encountered a strange issue where I cannot inject a service into one of my components  It injects fine into any of the three other components I have created  however  For starters  this is the service   import   Injectable   from   angular core     Injectable   export class MobileService     screenWidth  number    screenHeight  number     constructor         this screenWidth   window outerWidth      this screenHeight   window outerHeight       window addEventListener  quot resize quot   this onWindowResize bind this             onWindowResize ev  Event        var win    ev currentTarget as Window       this screenWidth   win outerWidth      this screenHeight   win outerHeight            And the component that it refuses to work with  import   Component    from   angular core   import   NgClass   from   angular common   import   ROUTER DIRECTIVES   from   angular router    import  MobileService  from          Component     moduleId  module id    selector   pm-header     templateUrl   header component html     styleUrls    header component css      directives   ROUTER DIRECTIVES  NgClass      export class HeaderComponent     mobileNav  boolean   false     constructor public ms  MobileService        console log ms           The error I get in the browser console is this   EXCEPTION  Can t resolve all parameters for HeaderComponent        I have the service in the bootstrap function so it has a provider  And I seem to be able to inject it into the constructor of any of my other components without issue

You get this error if you have service A that depends on a static property   method of service B and the service B itself depends on service A trough dependency injection  So it s a kind of a circular dependency  although it isn t since the property   method is static  Probably a bug that occurs in combination with AOT

In my case  I was exporting a Class and an Enum from the same component file   mComponent component ts   export class MyComponentClass      export enum MyEnum        Then  I was trying to use MyEnum from a child of MyComponentClass  That was causing the Can t resolve all parameters error   By moving MyEnum in a separate folder from MyComponentClass  that solved my issue   As G  nter Z  chbauer mentioned  this is happening because of a service or component is circularly dependent

I also encountered this by injecting service A into service B and vice versa   I think it s a good thing that this fails fast as it should probably be avoided anyway  If you want your services to be more modular and re-usable  it s best to avoid circular references as much as possible  This post highlights the pitfalls surrounding that    Therefore  I have the following recommendations    If you feel the classes are interacting too often  I m talking about feature envy   you might want to consider merging the 2 services into 1 class  If the above doesn t work for you  consider using a 3rd service   an EventService  which both services can inject in order to exchange messages

This answer might be very helpful for this problem  In addition  for my case  exporting the service as default was the cause   WRONG    Inject   export default class MobileService           CORRECT    Inject   export class MobileService

In addition to the previous answers given  it seems this error is thrown as well when your injectable service is missing the actual  Injectable   decorator  So before you debug the cyclic dependency thing and the order of your imports exports  do a simple check whether your service actually has  Injectable   defined   This applies to the current Angular latest  Angular 2 1 0   I opened an issue on this matter

As already stated  the issue is caused by the export ordering within the barrel which is caused by circular dependencies   A more detailed explanation is here  https   stackoverflow com a 37907696 893630

Gotcha   If none of the above answers helped you  maybe you are importing some element from the same file where a component is injecting the service   I explain better   This is the service file      your-service-file ts import   helloWorld    from  your-component-file ts    Injectable   export class CustomService       helloWorld       This is the component file    Component       export class CustomComponent     constructor service  CustomService         export function helloWorld       console log  hello world        So it causes problems even if the symbol isn t inside the same component  but just inside the same file  Move the symbol  it can be a function  a constant  a class and so on     elsewhere and the error will fade away

If your service is defined in the same file as a component  that consumes it  and the service is defined after the component in the file you may get this error  This is due to the same  forwardRef  issue others have mentioned  At this time VSCode isn t great about showing you this error and the build compiles successfully   Running the build with --aot can mask this problem due to the way the compiler works  probably related to tree shaking     Solution  Make sure the service is defined in another file or before the component definition   I m not sure if forwardRef can be used in this case  but it seems clumsy to do so    If I have a very simple service that is very strongly tied to a component  sort of like a view model  - eg  ImageCarouselComponent  I may name it ImageCarouselComponent service ts so it doesn t get all mixed up with my other services

I have encountered this error by mistyping the service s name  i e   constructor  private myService  MyService    For misspelled services  I was able to determine which service was the problem  I had several listed in the constructor  by inspecting the page in Chrome- Console  You will see as part of the message a  parameter  array list by displaying object Object  object Object     or something like that   Notice where the     is and that is the position of the service that is causing the problem

In my case passing wrong parameters to constructor generates this error  basic idea about this error is that you unknowingly passed some wrong args to any function   export class ProductComponent       productList  Array lt Product gt        constructor productList Product                 productList Product this arg was causing error of unresolved parameters           this productList                 I solved this by just removing that argument

In my case  the reason was the following    my injectable service A extended another class B B had a constructor which required an argument I hadn t defined any constructor in A   As a consequence  when trying to create an object A  the default constructor failed  I have no idea why this wasn t a compile error   I got it fixed by simply adding a constructor in A  which correctly called B s constructor

You have to add providers array in  Component decorator or in the module where your component is declared  Inside component you can do as below    Component     moduleId  module id    selector   pm-header     templateUrl   header component html     styleUrls    header component css      directives   ROUTER DIRECTIVES  NgClass     providers   MobileService

Import it from the file where it is declared directly instead of the barrel   I don t know what exactly causes the issue but I saw it mentioned several times  probably some kind of circular dependency    It should also be fixable by changing the order of the exports in the barrel  don t know details  but was mentioned as well

User · Answer

As of Angular 2 2 3 there is now a forwardRef   utility function that allows you to inject providers that have not yet been defined   By not defined  I mean that the dependency injection map doesn t know the identifier  This is what happens during circular dependencies  You can have circular dependencies in Angular that are very difficult to untangle and see   export class HeaderComponent     mobileNav  boolean   false     constructor  Inject forwardRef      gt  MobileService   public ms  MobileService        console log ms            Adding  Inject forwardRef      gt  MobileService   to the parameter of the constructor in the original question s source code will fix the problem   References  Angular 2 Manual  ForwardRef  Forward references in Angular 2

When using barrel imports - consider importing injectables first as a rule of thumb

User · Answer

Although the ordering of exported classes from within barrels may have been mentioned  the following scenario may also produce the same effect  Suppose you have classes A  B  and C exported from within the same file where A depends on B and C   Injectable   export class A           dependencies injected        constructor private b  B  private c  C         Injectable   export class B         Injectable   export class C        Since the dependent classes  i e  in this case classes B and C  are not yet known to Angular   probably at run-time during Angular s dependency injection process on class A  the error is raised  Solution The solution is to declare and export the dependent classes before the class where the DI is done  i e  in the above case the class A is declared right after its dependencies are defined   Injectable   export class B         Injectable   export class C         Injectable   export class A           dependencies injected        constructor private b  B  private c  C

for angular 6 and newer versions  try   Injectable     providedIn   root         right above your service class with no other lines in between  advantages   no need to add the service to any module  will be  auto-discovered   service will be a singleton  since it will be injected into root     angular docs

Well for me the issue was even more annoying  I was using a service within a service and forgot to add it as dependency in the appModule  Hope this helps someone save several hours breaking the app down only to build it back up again

User · Answer

This can be a really difficult issue to debug due to the lack of feedback in the error  If you are concerned about an actual cyclic dependency  here s the most important thing to look at in the stack trace a  the name of the service b  the constructor parameter in that service that has a question mark e g  if it looks like this      can t resolve all parameters for AuthService    object Object      object Object    object Object    object Object        then it means the 5th parameter is a service that also depend on AuthService  i e  question mark  means it wasn t resolved by DI   From there  you just need to decouple the 2 services by restructuring the code
