Ionic 2 custom svg spinner in loader

Question

I am trying to add my SVG to the loading create function but when I go to view it all I see is an empty tag where it should be.

let loading = this.loadingCtrl.create({spinner: ' ',
            content: this.appConfig.customSpinner })

Above is my create code and that variable is hte code below for the SVG.

<svg id="Layer_3" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 2419 1188.4">

</svg>

How can I get it to render? I have also replicated it to the ionic forum on this link

I have tried to add a pipe that will make it safe in run time but that also fails.

I made the content this:

<div [innerHTML]='appConfig.customSpinner | safe'></div>

And this is my pipe:

import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '@angular/core';
import { DomSanitizer } from '@angular/platform-browser';

@Pipe({name: 'safe'})
export class SafeHtml {
  constructor(private sanitizer:DomSanitizer){}

  transform(html:any):any {
    return this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(html);
  }
}

I have also tried with using a file:

let loading = this.loadingCtrl.create({spinner: 'hide', content:"<object data='assets/spinner.svg' type='image/svg+xml'></object>"})

This still causes the same issue.

NB**

After changing my code I realised that you cannot assign the return value from the sanitizer inside the variable but rather a declared variable in the class. One I did this I no longer got the TS type error and the svg XML loaded.

I have tried to use sanitizer on this problem and it still throws the same issue. I think its because the content is not binded to an element and rather appended. — Ross Rawlins

Hi again Ross. I have a working example here: github.com/karma-emprendedor/svg-loading-controller The error you mentioned does not appears. Could you provide a codepen, git, plunker, etc with the error reproduced? — Pablo Albaladejo

The spinner content must be 'safe html', i.e. you must use bypassSecurityTrustHtml. In your case try using:

let loading = this.loadingCtrl.create({spinner: ' ',
        content: this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(this.appConfig.customSpinner)
})

Check this related question.

This is my working code for html5 spinner at Ionic 3 app:

import { DomSanitizer } from '@angular/platform-browser';

constructor(private sanitizer: DomSanitizer){

getProgressBar(percentaje) {
    let html: string =  '<span style="text-align: center">Loading...'
    + Math.round(percentaje)+'%</span>'
    + '<br><progress value="' + percentaje + '" max="100"></progress>';
    return this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(html);
    }

doSomething(){

    let loading = this.loadingCtrl.create({
       spinner: 'hide',
    });
    loading.data.content = this.getProgressBar(0);
    loading.present();

   //some stuff

   loading.data.content = this.getProgressBar(progress);
   }
}

Hope it helps.

Update using svg:

let svg = `<svg width="100" height="100">
            <circle cx="50" cy="50" r="40" stroke="green" stroke-width="4" fill="yellow" />
          </svg>`;

this.safeSvg = this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(svg);

let loading = this.loadingCtrl.create({
  spinner: 'hide',
  content: this.safeSvg,
});
loading.present();

The working code can be found at this git repository

Because the function s expecting a string I have to convert it and when I do I still see nothing in my view. Is there a step I am missing? I see in my HTML the message {"changingThisBreaksApplicationSecurity":"

Are you sure if the svg is ok? Maybe the problem is there. Can you provide a Plunker with the svg? I have just do it by doing copy&paste from your question and nothing is displayed.

I added the link of my original codepen. But not sure where the issue could be.

Pablo Albaladejo Over a year ago

I think there is something 'unsafe' at your svg. I have do some testing with a basic svg, and it works. I have added an updated to my awnser with the code, could you test it at your project?

WARNING: sanitizing HTML stripped some content (see g.co/ng/security#xss). I still get that in the console. Is there a correct way to make the SVG safe?

you can also overwrite the loader styles in "src/theme/variables.scss" e.g.

    ion-loading {
        ion-backdrop {
            background-color: white !important;
        }
        .loading-wrapper {
            justify-content: center !important;
            opacity: 0.8 !important;
            background-color: white !important;
            width: 100% !important;
            height: 100% !important;
            max-width: 100% !important;
            max-height: 100% !important;
        }

        .spinner-crescent circle {
            stroke: green !important;
        }

        .spinner-ios line,
        .spinner-ios-small line {
            stroke: green !important;
        }
    }
