Angular MDBootstrap Switch Component
MDBootstrap is a Material Design and bootstrap-based Angular UI library that is used to make attractive webpages with its seamless and easy-to-use component. In this article, we will see how to use Switch Component in Angular MDBootstrap.
The Switch Component is used to indicate the on/off state of the component. The switch can be utilized to perform the On/Off functionality or provide the preference to choose one of two predefined options.
Syntax:
<div class="custom-control custom-switch"> <input type="checkbox" class="custom-control-input"> <label class="custom-control-label">Switch</label> </div>
Approach:
- Download Angular MDBootstrap from the official site.
- Extract the files to the current working directory.
- Install npm in the current project using the following command:
npm install
- After creating your project folder i.e. appname, move to it using the following command:
cd appname
- Start the server using the following command:
ng serve
Project Structure: After complete installation, it will look like the following:

Project Structure
Example 1: This is the basic example that illustrates how to use the Switch component in Angular MDBootstrap. Here, we have implemented the default & the checked switch.
app.component.html
< div id = "gfg" > < h1 >GeeksforGeeks</ h1 > < h4 > Angular MDBootstrap Switch Component </ h4 > < br /> < div class = "custom-control custom-switch" > < input type = "checkbox" class = "custom-control-input" id = "customSwitches" > < label class = "custom-control-label" for = "customSwitches" > Switch </ label > </ div > < br /> < div class = "custom-control custom-switch" > < input type = "checkbox" class = "custom-control-input" id = "gfg1" checked> < label class = "custom-control-label" for = "gfg1" > Switch </ label > </ div > </ div > |
app.component.ts
import { AfterViewInit, Component, ViewChildren } from "@angular/core" ; @Component({ selector: "app-root" , templateUrl: "./app.component.html" , styleUrls: [ "./app.component.css" ], }) export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit { @ViewChildren(AppComponent) collapses!: AppComponent[]; ngAfterViewInit(): void {} togglevisible = false ; togglebg() { this .togglevisible = ! this .togglevisible; } } |
app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from "@angular/platform-browser" ; import { NgModule } from "@angular/core" ; import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from "@angular/platform-browser/animations" ; import { AppComponent } from "./app.component" ; import { MDBBootstrapModule } from "angular-bootstrap-md" ; import { FormsModule } from "@angular/forms" ; @NgModule({ declarations: [AppComponent], imports: [ BrowserModule, BrowserAnimationsModule, MDBBootstrapModule.forRoot(), FormsModule, ], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent], }) export class AppModule {} |
Output:

Example 2: In this example, we will know how to disable the Switch component in Angular MDBootstrap.
app.component.html
< div id = "gfg" > < h1 >GeeksforGeeks</ h1 > < h4 > Angular MDBootstrap Switch Component </ h4 > < br /> < div class = "custom-control custom-switch" > < input type = "checkbox" class = "custom-control-input" id = "gfg1" disabled> < label class = "custom-control-label" for = "gfg1" > Switch </ label > </ div > </ div > |
app.component.ts
import { AfterViewInit, Component, ViewChildren } from "@angular/core" ; @Component({ selector: "app-root" , templateUrl: "./app.component.html" , styleUrls: [ "./app.component.css" ], }) export class AppComponent implements AfterViewInit { @ViewChildren(AppComponent) collapses!: AppComponent[]; ngAfterViewInit(): void {} togglevisible = false ; togglebg() { this .togglevisible = ! this .togglevisible; } } |
app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from "@angular/platform-browser" ; import { NgModule } from "@angular/core" ; import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from "@angular/platform-browser/animations" ; import { AppComponent } from "./app.component" ; import { MDBBootstrapModule } from "angular-bootstrap-md" ; import { FormsModule } from "@angular/forms" ; @NgModule({ declarations: [AppComponent], imports: [ BrowserModule, BrowserAnimationsModule, MDBBootstrapModule.forRoot(), FormsModule, ], providers: [], bootstrap: [AppComponent], }) export class AppModule {} |
