Angular 2.0 and Modal Dialog

Question

I am trying to find some examples on how to do a Confirmation modal dialog in Angular 2.0. I have been using Bootstrap dialog for Angular 1.0 and unable to find any examples in the web for Angular 2.0. I also checked angular 2.0 docs with no luck.

Is there a way to use the Bootstrap dialog with Angular 2.0?

Answer 1

• Angular 2 and up
• Bootstrap css (animation is preserved)
• NO JQuery
• NO bootstrap.js
• Supports custom modal content (just like accepted answer)
• Recently added support for multiple modals on top of each other.

`

@Component({
  selector: 'app-component',
  template: `
  <button type="button" (click)="modal.show()">test</button>
  <app-modal #modal>
    <div class="app-modal-header">
      header
    </div>
    <div class="app-modal-body">
      Whatever content you like, form fields, anything
    </div>
    <div class="app-modal-footer">
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" (click)="modal.hide()">Close</button>
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Save changes</button>
    </div>
  </app-modal>
  `
})
export class AppComponent {
}

@Component({
  selector: 'app-modal',
  template: `
  <div (click)="onContainerClicked($event)" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" [ngClass]="{'in': visibleAnimate}"
       [ngStyle]="{'display': visible ? 'block' : 'none', 'opacity': visibleAnimate ? 1 : 0}">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
      <div class="modal-content">
        <div class="modal-header">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-header"></ng-content>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-body">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-body"></ng-content>
        </div>
        <div class="modal-footer">
          <ng-content select=".app-modal-footer"></ng-content>
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  `
})
export class ModalComponent {

  public visible = false;
  public visibleAnimate = false;

  public show(): void {
    this.visible = true;
    setTimeout(() => this.visibleAnimate = true, 100);
  }

  public hide(): void {
    this.visibleAnimate = false;
    setTimeout(() => this.visible = false, 300);
  }

  public onContainerClicked(event: MouseEvent): void {
    if ((<HTMLElement>event.target).classList.contains('modal')) {
      this.hide();
    }
  }
}

To show the backdrop, you'll need something like this CSS:

.modal {
  background: rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}

The example now allows for multiple modals at the same time. (see the onContainerClicked() method).

For Bootstrap 4 css users, you need to make 1 minor change (because a css class name was updated from Bootstrap 3). This line: [ngClass]="{'in': visibleAnimate}" should be changed to: [ngClass]="{'show': visibleAnimate}"
