Angular2 add class to body tag
I would love to comment. But due to missing reputation I write an answer. Well I know two possibilities to solve this issue.
- Inject the Global Document. Well it might not be the best practice as I don't know if nativescript etc supports that. But it is at least better than use pure JS.
constructor(@Inject(DOCUMENT) private document: Document) {}
ngOnInit(){
this.document.body.classList.add('test');
}
Well and perhaps even better. You could inject the renderer or renderer 2 (on NG4) and add the class with the renderer.
export class myModalComponent implements OnDestroy {
constructor(private renderer: Renderer) {
this.renderer.setElementClass(document.body, 'modal-open', true);
}
ngOnDestroy(): void {
this.renderer.setElementClass(document.body, 'modal-open', false);
}
}
EDIT FOR ANGULAR4:
import { Component, OnDestroy, Renderer2 } from '@angular/core';
export class myModalComponent implements OnDestroy {
constructor(private renderer: Renderer2) {
this.renderer.addClass(document.body, 'modal-open');
}
ngOnDestroy(): void {
this.renderer.removeClass(document.body, 'modal-open');
}
}
I think the best way to do it is a combination of both approaches by DaniS above: Using the renderer to actually set / remove the class, but also using the document injector, so it is not strongly dependant on the window.document
but that can be replaced dynamically (e.g. when rendering server-side). So the whole code would look like this:
import { DOCUMENT } from '@angular/common';
import { Component, Inject, OnDestroy, OnInit, Renderer2 } from '@angular/core';
@Component({ /* ... */ })
export class MyModalComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
constructor (
@Inject(DOCUMENT) private document: Document,
private renderer: Renderer2,
) { }
ngOnInit(): void {
this.renderer.addClass(this.document.body, 'embedded-body');
}
ngOnDestroy(): void {
this.renderer.removeClass(this.document.body, 'embedded-body');
}
}
