Angular PrimeNG Defer Component

Angular PrimeNG is an open-source framework with a rich set of native Angular UI components that are used for great styling and this framework is used to make responsive websites with very much ease. It provides a lot of templates, components, theme design, an extensive icon library, and much more. In this article, we are going to learn Angular PrimeNG Defer Component

The Defer component pauses or postpones the loading of content that is initially not in the viewport until it becomes visible on the scroll. This is done to check on data fetches and reduce unnecessary data access and also increase the speed of the site.

Syntax:

Import the module

import {DeferModule} from 'primeng/defer';

Apply the pDefer directive as follows:

<div pDefer>
    <ng-template>
       deferred content
   </ng-template>
</div>

Using the onLoad callback to perform some function

<div pDefer (onLoad)="initData()">
    <ng-template>
       deferred content
   </ng-template>
</div>

In the app.component.ts file,

initData(){
    // load data
}
