I have a problem with reloading my child component from parent component in Angular.
Here is an example of what I want to do.
This is my child component
import { Component } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
selector: "app-child",
template: `<p> {{ticks}} </p>`,
styleUrls: ["./child.component.css"]
})
export class ChildComponent {
ticks = Date.now().valueOf();
constructor() {}
update(): void {
this.ticks = Date.now().valueOf();
}
}
And here is my parent component:
import { Component, OnInit, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { ChildComponent } from './../child/child.component';
@Component({
selector: 'app-parent',
templateUrl: './parent.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./parent.component.css'],
})
export class ParentComponent implements OnInit {
@ViewChild(ChildComponent, { static: false }) childC: ChildComponent;
showChild: boolean = true;
constructor() {}
ngOnInit() {}
onUpdateChild() {
this.childC.update();
}
}
Parent Component HTML:
<p>
parent works!
<button (click)="onUpdateChild()">update</button>
<app-child *ngIf="showChild"></app-child>
<app-child *ngIf="showChild"></app-child>
</p>
The main problem is that if I use my child component multiple time, and trying to click on “update” button, it just updates one of my child component that is used in parent component, but I want to update all same child component in parent component, here is what happens when you click on “update” button, only first value will change, not both.
How can I fix it???
You can use @ViewChildren and QueryList to do what you are looking for.
@ViewChildren(ChildComponent) childrenC:; QueryList<ChildComponent>;
And your function would look like:
onUpdateChild() { //I would rename it to onUpdateChildren
if(this.childrenC) {
this.childrenC.forEach((childC: ChildComponent) => {
this.childC.update();
});
}
}
If you wanted your child component to update on it's own - as stated by a comment to your original post - this is an example of what you could do so you wouldn't even need the update button:
import { Component, OnInit } from "@angular/core";
@Component({
selector: "app-child",
template: `<p> {{ticks}} </p>`,
styleUrls: ["./child.component.css"]
})
export class ChildComponent implements OnInit {
ticks = Date.now().valueOf();
constructor() {}
ngOnInit(): void {
setInterval(() => {
this.ticks = Date.now().valueOf();
}, 1000); //updates every 1 second
}
}
Another option you can do without using a button is to use @Input
with the ticks property that updates the value from the parent through an input.
