[angular] No provider for HttpClient

After upgrading from angular 4.4 to 5.0 and after updating all HttpModule and Http to HttpClientModule I started to get this error.

I also added HttpModule again to be sure it's not due to some dependency but it doesn't resolve the issue

In app.module, I have all correctly set

import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClientModule, HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';
.
.
.
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        BrowserModule,
        HttpClientModule,
        HttpModule,
        BrowserAnimationsModule,
        FormsModule,
        AppRoutingModule,
.
.
.

I don't know from where this error is coming, or I have no clue how to get inner of it. I also have a warning (put it below too) maybe its related.

This question is related to angular typescript

The answer is


I was facing the same problem, then in my app.module.ts I updated the file this way,

import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

and in the same file (app.module.ts) in my @NgModule imports[]array I wrote this way,

HttpModule,
HttpClientModule

Just import the HttpModule and the HttpClientModule only:

import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

No need for the HttpClient.


Just Add HttpClientModule in 'imports' array of app.module.ts file.

...
import {HttpClientModule} from '@angular/common/http'; // add this line
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    HeaderComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    HttpClientModule, //add this line
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

and then you can use HttpClient in your project through constructor injection

  import {HttpClient} from '@angular/common/http';
  
  export class Services{
  constructor(private http: HttpClient) {}

Add HttpModule and HttpClientModule in both imports and providers in app.module.ts solved the issue. imports -> import {HttpModule} from "@angular/http"; import {HttpClientModule} from "@angular/common/http";


I had similar problem. For me the fix was to import HttpModule before HttpClient Module:

import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';
.
.
.
imports: [
  BrowserModule,
  HttpModule,
  HttpClientModule
],

I was also facing similar issue by doing below changes, it worked for me

In app.modules.ts

import {HttpClientModule} from '@angular/common/http' 

and in corresponding service class

import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http'

constructor should look like as below

constructor(private http: HttpClient, private xyz: xyzService) {}

In test file

import { HttpClientTestingModule } from '@angular/common/http/testing'

  beforeEach(() => TestBed.configureTestingModule({
    imports: [HttpClientTestingModule]
  }));

Go to app.module.ts

import import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

AND

Add HttpClientModule under imports

should look like this

imports: [BrowserModule, IonicModule.forRoot(), AppRoutingModule,HttpClientModule]

adding HttpClientModule in app.module.ts file in import section fixed my issue.


In my case I found once I rebuild the app it worked.

I had imported the HttpClientModule as specified in the previous posts but I was still getting the error. I stopped the server, rebuilt the app (ng serve) and it worked.


I was facing the same issue, the funny thing was I had two projects opened on simultaneously, I have changed the wrong app.modules.ts files.

First, check that.

After that change add the following code to the app.module.ts file

import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

After that add the following to the imports array in the app.module.ts file

  imports: [
    HttpClientModule,....
  ],

Now you should be ok!


In my case, the error occured when using a service from an angular module located in an npm package, where the service requires injection of HttpClient. When installing the npm package, a duplicate node_modules directory was created inside the package directory due to version conflict handling of npm (engi-sdk-client is the module containing the service):

enter image description here

Obviously, the dependency to HttpClient is not resolved correctly, as the locations of HttpClientModule injected into the service (lives in the duplicate node_modules directory) and the one injected in app.module (the correct node_modules) don't match.

I've also had this error in other setups containing a duplicate node_modules directory due to a wrong npm install call.

This defective setup also leads to the described runtime exception No provider for HttpClient!.

TL;DR; Check for duplicate node_modules directories, if none of the other solutions work!


I found slimier problem. Please import the HttpClientModule in your app.module.ts file as follow:

import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';

import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
],

imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    HttpClientModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

I had same issue. After browsing and struggling with issue found the below solution

import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

imports: [
  HttpModule,
  HttpClientModule
]

Import HttpModule and HttpClientModule in app.module.ts and add into the imports like mentioned above.


In angular github page, this problem was discussed and found solution. https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/20355


You have not provided providers in your module:

<strike>import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';</strike>
import { HttpClientModule, HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    HttpClientModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    FormsModule,
    AppRoutingModule
  ],
  providers: [ HttpClientModule, ... ]
  // ...
})
export class MyModule { /* ... */ }

Using HttpClient in Tests

You will need to add the HttpClientTestingModule to the TestBed configuration when running ng test and getting the "No provider for HttpClient" error:

// Http testing module and mocking controller
import { HttpClientTestingModule, HttpTestingController } from '@angular/common/http/testing';

// Other imports
import { TestBed } from '@angular/core/testing';
import { HttpClient, HttpErrorResponse } from '@angular/common/http';

describe('HttpClient testing', () => {
  let httpClient: HttpClient;
  let httpTestingController: HttpTestingController;

  beforeEach(() => {
    TestBed.configureTestingModule({
      imports: [ HttpClientTestingModule ]
    });

    // Inject the http service and test controller for each test
    httpClient = TestBed.get(HttpClient);
    httpTestingController = TestBed.get(HttpTestingController);
  });

  it('works', () => {
  });
});

In my case, I was using a service in a sub module (NOT the root AppModule), and the HttpClientModule was imported only in the module.

So I have to modify the default scope of the service, by changing 'providedIn' to 'any' in the @Injectable decorator.

By default, if you using angular-cli to generate the service, the 'providedIn' was set to 'root'.

Hope this helps.


To resolve this problem HttpClient is Angular's mechanism for communicating with a remote server over HTTP.

To make HttpClient available everywhere in the app,

  1. open the root AppModule,

  2. import the HttpClientModule from @angular/common/http,

    import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

  3. add it to the @NgModule.imports array.

    imports:[HttpClientModule, ]


I got this error after injecting a Service which used HTTPClient into a class. The class was again used in the service, so it created a circular dependency. I could compile the app with warnings, but in browser console the error occurred

"No provider for HttpClient! (MyService -> HttpClient)"

and it broke the app.

This works:

import { HttpClient, HttpClientModule, HttpHeaders } from '@angular/common/http';
import { MyClass } from "../classes/my.class";

@Injectable()
export class MyService {
  constructor(
    private http: HttpClient
  ){
    // do something with myClass Instances
  }      
}
.
.
.
export class MenuItem {
  constructor(

  ){}
}

This breaks the app

import { HttpClient, HttpClientModule, HttpHeaders } from '@angular/common/http';
import { MyClass } from "../classes/my.class";

@Injectable()
export class MyService {
  constructor(
    private http: HttpClient
  ){
    // do something with myClass Instances
  }      
}
.
.
.
import { MyService } from '../services/my.service';
export class MyClass {
  constructor(
    let injector = ReflectiveInjector.resolveAndCreate([MyService]);
    this.myService = injector.get(MyService);
  ){}
}

After injecting MyService in MyClass I got the circular dependency warning. CLI compiled anyway with this warning but the app did not work anymore and the error was given in browser console. So in my case it didn't had to do anything with @NgModule but with circular dependencies. I recommend to solve the case sensitive naming warnings if your problem still exist.


You are getting error for HttpClient so, you are missing HttpClientModule for that.

You should import it in app.module.ts file like this -

import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

and mention it in the NgModule Decorator like this -

@NgModule({
...
imports:[ HttpClientModule ]
...
})

If this even doesn't work try clearing cookies of the browser and try restarting your server. Hopefully it may work, I was getting the same error.
