How to implement a flip effect using Anuglar 2 animations?

Question

I have been using pure css flip of cards in my project but this solution is not proper one. Can somebody present a flip in angular 2 on click of a button? I have found one in angularjs https://codepen.io/Zbeyer/pen/oXQrZg

    <div ng-app="cardFlipper" ng-controller="AppController">    
    <h1>Card Flipping AngularJS</h1>
    <div class="flip-container">
        <div class="flipper" ng-click="flipCard()" ng-class="{'flipToFront':isCardRevealed, 'flipToBack':!isCardRevealed}">
            <div class="back" ng-class="{'face-hidden':hideBackFace}">
            </div>
            <div class="front" ng-class="{'face-hidden':!hideBackFace}">
                <h1>{{currentCard.title | uppercase}}</h1>
                <p ng-if="currentCard.icon">{{currentCard.icon}}</p>
                <br ng-if="currentCard.icon" />
                <img ng-if="currentCard.imageUrl" src="{{currentCard.imageUrl}}" alt="currentCard.imageAlt" />
                <p>{{currentCard.description}}</p>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <footer>
        <div ng-if="currentCard && currentCard.source">
            <a ng-href="{{currentCard.source}}" target="_blank">Source</a>
        </div>
    </footer>
    <br />
    <br />

Can somebody turn it into angular2 or implement something different?

this demo using animation in Angular

import { Component, OnInit, trigger, state, style, transition, animate } from '@angular/core';
