Angular cli generate a service and include the provider in one step

Question

It is possible generate a service with angular cli and add it as a provider in the app.module.ts in a single step or using an special option in the ng g service command?

When a execute:

$ ng g service services/backendApi
installing service
  create src/app/services/backend-api.service.spec.ts
  create src/app/services/backend-api.service.ts
  WARNING Service is generated but not provided, it must be provided to be used

Next to it, (and according to the WARNING message) I usually add it to provider section on app.module.ts using the text editor:

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent,
    ...
  ],
  imports: [
    ....
  ],
  providers: [BackendApiService],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})

It is possible to do it with a single step, to automatize this?

Answer 1

Actually, it is possible to provide the service (or guard, since that also needs to be provided) when creating the service.

The command is the following...

ng g s services/backendApi --module=app.module

Edit

It is possible to provide to a feature module, as well, you must give it the path to the module you would like.

ng g s services/backendApi --module=services/services.module
