How I can detect window resize instantly in angular 2?
You could just put handler on resize
event over window
object, but this will allow you to put only single resize
event, latest registered event on onresize
will work.
constructor(private ngZone:NgZone) {
window.onresize = (e) =>
{
//ngZone.run will help to run change detection
this.ngZone.run(() => {
console.log("Width: " + window.innerWidth);
console.log("Height: " + window.innerHeight);
});
};
}
To make it more angular way use @HostListener('window:resize')
inside your component, which will allow to call your resize function(on which HostListner
decorator has been mount) on resize
of window.
@HostListener('window:resize', ['$event'])
onResize(event){
console.log("Width: " + event.target.innerWidth);
}
An easier way would be using the resize method on the html block that you want to detect:
<div class="some-class" (window:resize)="onResize($event)">...</div>
Then in your .ts
file you can just add:
onResize(event) {
const innerWidth = event.target.innerWidth;
console.log(innerWidth);
if (innerWidth <= 767) {
...do something
}
}
Add this outside of the ngOnInit() {}
unless you wanted the window size on page load.
When you resize your window, you'll see the console.log
Use HostListener. You should probably debounce the resize event though before doing anything, it will fire everytime the size changes which could be dozens or hundreds of times in a few milliseconds as the user drags the window size.
import { Component, HostListener } from '@angular/core';
@Component({...})
class TestComponent {
@HostListener('window:resize')
onWindowResize() {
//debounce resize, wait for resize to finish before doing stuff
if (this.resizeTimeout) {
clearTimeout(this.resizeTimeout);
}
this.resizeTimeout = setTimeout((() => {
console.log('Resize complete');
}).bind(this), 500);
}
}
