I'm trying to make a menubar using PrimeNG, based on example from http://www.primefaces.org/primeng/#/menubar

I create something like this:

app.component.ts

import {Component} from '@angular/core';
import {MenuBarComponent} from "./menubardemo.component";
@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
  template: `<h1>My First Angular 2 App</h1><demo></demo>`,
  directives:[MenuBarComponent] })
export class AppComponent { }

menubardemo.components.ts

import {Component, OnInit} from "@angular/core";
import {Menubar, MenuItem} from "primeng/primeng";
@Component({
  selector: 'demo',
  template: `<p-menubar [model]="items"> </p-menubar>`,
  directives: [Menubar] })
export class MenuBarComponent implements OnInit {
  private items:MenuItem[];// you know how to fill this in the "OnInit" method

  ngOnInit() {
    this.items = [
      {
        label: 'File',
        icon: 'fa-file-o',
        items: [{
          label: 'New',
          icon: 'fa-plus',
          items: [
            {label: 'Project'},
            {label: 'Other'},
          ]
        },
          {label: 'Open'},
          {label: 'Quit'}
        ]
      },
      {
        label: 'Edit',
        icon: 'fa-edit',
        items: [
          {label: 'Undo', icon: 'fa-mail-forward'},
          {label: 'Redo', icon: 'fa-mail-reply'}
        ]
      },
      {
        label: 'Help',
        icon: 'fa-question',
        items: [
          {
            label: 'Contents'
          },
          {
            label: 'Search',
            icon: 'fa-search',
            items: [
              {
                label: 'Text',
                items: [
                  {
                    label: 'Workspace'
                  }
                ]
              },
              {
                label: 'File'
              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        label: 'Actions',
        icon: 'fa-gear',
        items: [
          {
            label: 'Edit',
            icon: 'fa-refresh',
            items: [
              {label: 'Save', icon: 'fa-save'},
              {label: 'Update', icon: 'fa-save'},
            ]
          },
          {
            label: 'Other',
            icon: 'fa-phone',
            items: [
              {label: 'Delete', icon: 'fa-minus'}
            ]
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        label: 'Quit', icon: 'fa-minus'
      }
    ];
  }
}

after I checked out the data object is printed on the DOM, but the menubar is not showing.

I had the same problem, and searching everywhere, even in this post, I was able to solve it, just configuring a simple empty Route:

app.module.ts

import { RouterModule }   from '@angular/router';

@NgModule({
...
imports: [ RouterModule.forRoot([]), ... ]
...
})

index.html:

<script>document.write('<base href="' + document.location + '" />');</script>
