angular - How to get height and width of device display in angular2 using typescript?

Question

I found this solution. Is it valid?

import {Component} from '@angular/core';
import {Platform} from 'ionic-angular';

@Component({...})
export MyApp {
constructor(platform: Platform) {
  platform.ready().then((readySource) => {
    console.log('Width: ' + platform.width());
    console.log('Height: ' + platform.height());
  });
 }
}

This solution is for ionic 2. can i also used for angular 2?

Please suggest me the right way to do it.

Answer 1

For those who want to get height and width of device even when the display is resized (dynamically & in real-time):

• Step 1:

In that Component do: import { HostListener } from "@angular/core";

• Step 2:

In the component's class body write:

@HostListener('window:resize', ['$event'])
onResize(event?) {
   this.screenHeight = window.innerHeight;
   this.screenWidth = window.innerWidth;
}

• Step 3:

In the component's constructor call the onResize method to initialize the variables. Also, don't forget to declare them first.

constructor() {
  this.onResize();
}    

Complete code:

import { Component, OnInit } from "@angular/core";
import { HostListener } from "@angular/core";

@Component({
  selector: "app-login",
  templateUrl: './login.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./login.component.css']
})

export class FooComponent implements OnInit {
    screenHeight: number;
    screenWidth: number;

    constructor() {
        this.getScreenSize();
    }

    @HostListener('window:resize', ['$event'])
    getScreenSize(event?) {
          this.screenHeight = window.innerHeight;
          this.screenWidth = window.innerWidth;
          console.log(this.screenHeight, this.screenWidth);
    }

}
