How to call ngOnInit() again in Angular 2?

Question

Please explain in this code, how to call ngOnInit() again when I call another method?

ngOnInit(): void {
  this.route.params.subscribe((params: Params) => {
    this.model = this.userData;
  });
}

update() {
  this.loading = true;
  this.userService.update(this.model).subscribe(
    (data) => {
      alert('Update successful');
    },
    (error) => {
      alert('Not updated');
      this.loading = false;
    },
  );
  this.user_data();
}

There are two options from my point of view:

Calling ngOnInit() from another function scope . But I would suggest to do not adopt this approach given ngOnInit is an angular core method that belongs to OnInit Interface .

    public ngOnInit() {
          this.route.params.subscribe((params: Params) => {
          this.model=this.userData;
      });      
    }
    
    update() {
           this.ngOnInit();
    }  

Break your functionality into another function, use ngOnInit to call it and, afterwards, any request can be made from anywhere by calling the function in the following manner: this.<MethodName>(); .

    public ngOnInit() {
          this.getRouteData();
    }
    
    update() {
           this.getRouteData(); 
    }

    getRouteData() {
      this.route.params.subscribe((params: Params) => {
          this.model=this.userData;
      }); 
    }

If the purpose is to trigger ngOnInit() when query param is updated, then do following:

import { Router } from '@angular/router';
constructor(private router: Router) {
    this.router.routeReuseStrategy.shouldReuseRoute = () => false;
}

ngOnInit called once the component is created. so you can create a function and call the function again. Here is the sample code.

ngOnInit(): void {
    this.callFun();
}    

update() {
    this.callFun();
    // do code
}

private callFun(){
   // do code
}

You should not need to call ngOnInit again. So the question remains, what are you really trying to accomplish? Are you having issues retrieving the routing parameter?

 ngOnInit(): void {
      this.route.params.subscribe((params: Params) => {
        this.model=this.userData;
  }); 

Your code within the subscribe above will AUTOMATICALLY be re-executed every time the route parameters change. So there is no need to manually call ngOnInit again.

It's just a function...

ngOnInit() {}

secondMethod() { this.ngOnInit(); }

I've been doing it all the time to reload my data, never had a problem with it.
