Angular4 PrimeNG dialog as component


I am struggeling with an angular/primeng problem. i am new with angular4 and i am trying to open and close a dialog as an own component. I have a list-component where a datatable loads all data. If you click on a row and press the open button the dialog-component should open. But when i close the dialog and want to reopen it, it doesn't work.

list-component.html:

<button class="btn btn-default openBtn" type="button" 
    pButton label="Open" [disabled]="jobClosed" (click)="showDialog()">
</button>

<app-details [display]="display"></app-details>

list-component.ts

display: boolean = false;

showDialog() {
    this.display = true;
}

dialog-component.html

<p-dialog [(visible)]="display" modal="modal" [responsive]="true" 
  (onAfterHide)="onClose()">
   <p>Runs!</p>
</p-dialog>

dialog-component.ts

@Input() display: boolean;

onClose(){
    this.display = false;
}

The problem is, that the dialog opens when i click the button, but when i close it and want to open it again, it doesn't open anymore. Anybody knows why? I have read, that i need to create an @Output variable and use an EventEmitter, but i don't know if this is true and how it works. I hope anybody knows why the dialog doesn't reopen again after i closed it once.


Solution

  • I made it on my own. As i said an EventEmitter is needed here.

    list-component.html:

    <button class="btn btn-default openBtn" type="button" 
        pButton label="Open" [disabled]="jobClosed" (click)="showDialog()">
    </button>
    
    <app-details [display]="display" (displayChange)="onDialogClose($event)"></app-details>
    

    list-component.ts:

    display: boolean = false;
    
    showDialog() {
        this.display = true;
    }
    
    onDialogClose(event) {
       this.display = event;
    }
    

    dialog-component.html:

    <p-dialog [(visible)]="display" modal="modal" [responsive]="true">
       <p>Runs!</p>
    </p-dialog>
    

    dialog-component.ts:

      @Input() display: boolean;
      @Output() displayChange = new EventEmitter();
    
      onClose(){
        this.displayChange.emit(false);
      }
    
      // Work against memory leak if component is destroyed
      ngOnDestroy() {
        this.displayChange.unsubscribe();
      }
