Where to put a global custom directive in Angular 16 without an AppModule?

Question

In Angular 16, if you are using an application without an AppModule, where should you put a global custom directive that you imported in the AppModule declarations?

For example I have a directive called hasRole that I used to add to the declarations array of the AppModule in Angular 15 to use it globally. However, I am not using an AppModule in Angular 16. Where should I declare this directive to use it globally?

You can migrate it into a standalone directive and directly import it into each component where it's needed.

You can learn more about standalone components, directives, and pipes in this Angular guide: https://angular.io/guide/standalone-components

Yes, but I want to use it in all the components, so is there a way to declare it globally? – Alexis May 12 '23 at 19:29
