or

yarn add ngx-gtm-cookie-consent ngx-cookieconsent cookieconsent

2. Add the following to your angular.json:

{
    "assets": [
        {
            "glob": "**/cookie-consent.js",
            "input": "node_modules/ngx-gtm-cookie-consent/static/js",
            "output": "./ngx-gtm-cookie-consent"
        }
    ],
    "styles": [
        "node_modules/cookieconsent/build/cookieconsent.min.css",
        "node_modules/ngx-gtm-cookie-consent/static/css/main.css"
    ],
    "scripts": [
        "node_modules/cookieconsent/build/cookieconsent.min.js"
    ]
}

3. Add a script in your index.html head section:

<script src="ngx-gtm-cookie-consent/cookie-consent.js"></script>

4. Create a cookieConfig object (see ngx-cookieconsent)

5. Add imports to your AppModule:

@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    NgcCookieConsentModule.forRoot(cookieConfig),
    CookieModule.forRoot({
      gtmContainerId: 'GTM-XXXYYY', // Your Google Tag Manager container ID
      enable: true, // Control this from your environment files
      cookieConsentPopUpConfig: cookieConfig
    })
  ]
})
export class AppModule { }

6. Create a new trigger in Google Tag Manager

7. Use the new trigger to fire tags (e.g. for Google Analytics)

i18n support

You can change the content of the cookie banner after the initial setup, for example to react to a locale change by the user. The CookieConsentService provides the function setCookieConsentConfig() which can be used to provide an updated config object.
