javascript - How to Inject Angular2 Http service into es6/7 Class?

Question

If I use es6/7 (babel - stage 1) instead of TypeScript, how are services, and specifically Http, injected?

Here's my component JS:

import {Component, Inject, View, CORE_DIRECTIVES, ViewEncapsulation} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {Http} from 'angular2/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'login'
})
@View({
  templateUrl: './components/login/login.html',
  styleUrls: ['components/login/login.css'],
  directives: [CORE_DIRECTIVES],
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.Emulated
})
export class Login {
  constructor(@Inject(Http) http) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }

  authenticate(username, password) {
    // this.http.get('/login');
  }
}

I have tried:

export class Login {
  constructor(@Inject(Http) http) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }
}
/********************/
@Inject(Http)
export class Login {
  constructor(http) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }
}
/********************/
export class Login {
  constructor(Http: http) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }
}
/********************/
export class Login {
  constructor(http = Http) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }
}
/********************/
export class Login {
  constructor(Http) {
    this.http = new Http()
    console.log('http', this.http);
  }
}
/********************/
export class Login {
  constructor(http = new Http()) {
    console.log('http', http);
  }
}

All but the first compiles. Others give me access to either the Http class or an http instance. But none works.

I tried to following the discussion referenced by Eric Martinez in his comment. Login.js now:

import {Component, Inject, View, CORE_DIRECTIVES, ViewEncapsulation} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {HTTP_BINDINGS, Http, BaseRequestOptions, RequestOptions, RequestMethods} from 'angular2/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'login'
})
@View({
  templateUrl: './components/login/login.html',
  styleUrls: ['components/login/login.css'],
  directives: [CORE_DIRECTIVES],
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.Emulated,
  bindings: [Http]
})
export class Login {

  constructor(http) {
    this.http = http;
    console.log('http', http);
  }

  authenticate(usernameEl, passwordEl) {
    var username = usernameEl.value;
    var password = passwordEl.value;
    console.log('username', username, password);

    // this.http.get('/login');
  }
}

Login.parameters = [Http];

It compiles now but generates the following error:

Uncaught (in promise) NoBindingError {message: "No provider for Http!

Answer 1

Since you have @Decorators enabled in Babel

...I'll fine-tune this answer to work with your specific setup.

1. You're missing HTTP_PROVIDERS

The HTTP_PROVIDERS constant includes a number of functions required to handle HTTP requests/responses.

import {Http, HTTP_PROVIDERS} from 'angular2/http';    

@Component({
  selector: 'login',
  providers: [ HTTP_PROVIDERS ]
})

2. You need to desugar the DI (Dependency Injection) syntax

As mentioned in @alexpods' answer.

Remove the static typing

constructor(http) {

@Inject handles DI implicitly but is only supported in Angular2+Typescript. Since you're using Angular2+ES6 you need to attach a static getter parameter to your class to provide the ES6-specific equivalent.

static get parameters() {
    return [[Http]];
}

3. You need to bind the Http instance to your class in the constructor

By doing this, it will become accessible in your authenticate() method.

constructor(http) {
    this.http = http;
    console.log('http', this.http);
}

---

...and the full implementation:

import {Component, Inject, View, CORE_DIRECTIVES, ViewEncapsulation} from 'angular2/angular2';
import {Http, HTTP_PROVIDERS} from 'angular2/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'login',
  // required for Http
  providers: [ HTTP_PROVIDERS ]
})
@View({
  templateUrl: './components/login/login.html',
  styleUrls: ['components/login/login.css'],
  directives: [CORE_DIRECTIVES],
  encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.Emulated
})
export class Login {
  constructor(http) {
    // bind http to your class during construction
    //   so it's available to authenticate()
    this.http = http;
  }

  // Angular2 DI desugar'd
  static get parameters() {
    return [[Http]];
  }

  authenticate(username, password) {
    this.http.get('/login');
  }
}

Aside: I know for a fact this works because I'm using it for the <ng2-markdown> component on EvanPlaice.com.
