My App Component.html has a basic navigation and a date picker, like so...
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<!-- Navigation Removed -->
<div class="col-md-2 float-right">
<kendo-datepicker
(valueChange)="onChange($event)"
[(value)]="value">
</kendo-datepicker>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<router-outlet></router-outlet>
The component.ts is set up in the following way:
import { Component, ViewEncapsulation, Input, Output, EventEmitter } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None,
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
@Input() value: Date = new Date();
@Output() dateChanged: EventEmitter<Date> = new EventEmitter<Date>();
constructor() {}
public onChange(value: Date): void {
this.dateChanged.emit(value);
}
}
I've got some pages that have a grid control calling a service, but the date is currently hard-coded, and this all works fine. I want the ability to refresh the grid data based on the selected date from the above date picker, essentially, I will click on the datapicker, the emitted value will be passed to a method in the component with the grid controller.
Controller with Grid:
import { Component, OnInit, Input } from '@angular/core';
import { GridDataResult, DataStateChangeEvent } from '@progress/kendo-angular-grid';
import { DataSourceRequestState } from '@progress/kendo-data-query';
import { DataService } from '../services/DataService.service';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';
import { State } from '@progress/kendo-data-query';
@Component({
templateUrl: './grid.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./grid.component.css']
})
export class GridComponent implements OnInit {
public products: GridDataResult;
public state: DataSourceRequestState = {
skip: 0,
take: 25
};
@Input() value: Date = new Date();
constructor(private dataService: DataService) { }
ngOnInit() {
this.dataService.fetch(this.state).subscribe(r => this.products = r);
}
public dataStateChange(state: DataStateChangeEvent): void {
this.state = state;
this.dataService.fetch(state)
.subscribe(r => this.products = r);
}
}
You can use Subject
to listen changes on your date input.
First create a date service.
@Injectable()
export class DateService {
public chosenDate: Observable<Date>;
private dateSubject: Subject<Date>;
constructor() {
this.dateSubject = new Subject<Date>();
this.chosenDate = this.dateSubject.asObservable();
}
dateChanged(newDate:Date){
this.dateSubject.next(newDate);
}
}
Then in your Grid Controller, inject this service and subscribe to chosen date from service where you need in your component.
constructor(private service: DateService){
this.service.chosenDate.subscribe((date: Date) => {
// do something useful with date
});
and finally on your date field change event, put this code to pass new date to the service
this.service.dateChanged(date);
Edit: Here I made an example for you, demonstrating the solution. I'm sure you can easilty implement this in your code.
