I know that when defining components in Angular2 you have multiple types of lifecycle hooks that you can implement such as OnDestroy, NgOnInit, etc.
In every sample piece of code I've seen online about using these hooks, I only ever see them being used one at a time. For instance
export class ModalComponent implements OnDestroy { ... }
or
export class ModalComponent implements OnChanges { ... }
But what if you want to use multiple for a single component? For instance, what if you want specific behavior for OnChanges AND OnDestroy? I've tried the following:
export class ModalComponent implements OnChanges implements OnDestroy{ ... }
export class ModalComponent implements OnChanges, OnDestroy { ... }
export class ModalComponent implements [OnChanges, OnDestroy] { ... }
export class ModalComponent implements OnChanges and OnDestroy { ... }
I'm certain the answer is very simple but I'm having a remarkable amount of trouble finding an answer to this.
Thank you in advance!
Angular gives us 8 hooks to allow us to tap into the lifecycle of our components and trigger actions at specific points in the lifecycle.
You can extend 1 class and implement multiple interfaces.
The sequence of log messages follows the prescribed hook calling order: OnChanges , OnInit , DoCheck (3x), AfterContentInit , AfterContentChecked (3x), AfterViewInit , AfterViewChecked (3x), and OnDestroy .
You can extend 1 class and implement multiple interfaces. Lifecycle hooks are interfaces.
class D extends C implements A, B{}
You were probably right when you implemented two interfaces with a comma separator.
Here's an example.
import { Component, OnInit, AfterViewInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-ram-component',
templateUrl: './ram.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./ram.component.css']
})
export class RamComponentComponent implements OnInit,OnDestroy,AfterViewInit {
constructor() { }
ngOnInit() {
console.log('On Init');
}
ngAfterViewInit(){
console.log('after view');
}
ngOnDestroy(){
console.log('destroyed!!');
}
}
Please note the import statement has to include all the necessary lifecycle hooks.
import { Component, OnInit, AfterViewInit, OnDestroy } from '@angular/core';
