I am trying to make an angular2(4) directive. i use it to style the div, and add a background image. the source of the background image is passed by the component using that directive.
I am not able to get access to the input. it keeps returning undefined
Heres what i did
image-style
directive
import { Directive, ElementRef, Input } from '@angular/core';
@Directive({
selector: '[image-style]' // Attribute selector
})
export class ImageStyleDirective {
@Input("image-style") imageSrc: string;
constructor(public el: ElementRef) {
console.log('Hello ImageStyleDirective Directive');
console.log(this.imageSrc); //THIS RETURNS UNDEFINED EVERY TIME
this._setProperties();
}
_setProperties(){
console.log(this.imageSrc);
this.el.nativeElement.style.width = "70px";
this.el.nativeElement.style.height = "70px";
this.el.nativeElement.style.borderRadius = "50%";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundSize = "contain";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundPosition = "center center";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundRepeat = "no-repeat";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundColor = "#2d2439";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundImage = "url('"+this.imageSrc+"')";
}
comonent.html
using the directive
<div class="item-block">
<ion-grid>
<ion-row align-items-center>
<ion-col class="image">
<div [image-style]="brand.image"></div>
</ion-col>
<ion-col col-9>
<div class="name">{{brand.name}}</div>
<div class="category">{{brand.category}}</div>
<div class="location">{{brand.location}}</div>
</ion-col>
</ion-row>
</ion-grid>
</div>
This is my first time attempting something like this. i followed the documentation explicitly and i still don't have access to the property. I am not sure where i missed it Any suggestions?
According to @jonrsharpe above(in the comments) The input is not accessible in the constructor. So i moved it to the ngOnInit()
lifecycle hook and it worked!
import { Directive, ElementRef, Input } from '@angular/core';
@Directive({
selector: '[image-style]' // Attribute selector
})
export class ImageStyleDirective {
@Input("image-style") imageSrc;
constructor(public el: ElementRef) {
console.log('Hello ImageStyleDirective Directive');
}
ngOnInit(){
console.log(this.imageSrc);
this._setProperties();
}
_setProperties(){
console.log(this.imageSrc);
this.el.nativeElement.style.width = "70px";
this.el.nativeElement.style.height = "70px";
this.el.nativeElement.style.borderRadius = "50%";
// max-width: 40%;
// this.el.nativeElement.style.margin = "auto";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundSize = "contain";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundPosition = "center center";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundRepeat = "no-repeat";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundColor = "#2d2439";
this.el.nativeElement.style.backgroundImage = "url('"+this.imageSrc+"')";
}
}
