Conclusion on Event Update

What have we done so far?

In this chapter:

• We added the last remaining service method to EventsService for updating an event.
• We created our new EventUpdateComponent, adding a link to our new view within EventViewComponent.
• We populated a template-driven form with the values for the requested event, providing event creators the ability to update existing events.

There’s just one small issue that still needs to be addressed. In EventViewComponent, we utilized the isEventCreator service method within EventsService to display the “Edit” link only to the creator of an event. But, a user who knows of the /update URL can simply append /update to the URL when they’re viewing an event, giving them access to this view along with the ability to update an event they didn’t create.

Before moving forward, let’s commit our latest changes and push them to GitHub.

Note: Git may ask you to set your account’s identity before committing changes to the GitHub. For this, use the following commands to set your email address and username.

Below are the commands to push changes to the GitHub repository.
