How to use code to open a modal in Angular 2?

Usually we use data-target="#myModal" in the <button> to open a modal. Right now I need use codes to control when to open the modal.

If I use [hidden] or *ngIf to show it, I need remove class="modal fade", otherwise, the modal will never show. Like this:

<div [hidden]="hideModal" id="myModal">

However, in this case, after removing class="modal fade", the modal won't fade in and has no shade in the background. And what's worse, it will show at the screen bottom instead of screen center.

Is there a way to keep class="modal fade" and use code to open it? 

<button type="button" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>

<div id="myModal" class="modal fade">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-body">
        <p>Some text in the modal.</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Let me explain the solution. Bit tricky ....... Parent HTML File ........

<!-- parent component html -->
your code....
<div class="d-flex align-items-center flex-nowrap justify-content-end">
    <button (click)="openCancelStandingOrder(line)" class="btn btn-primary mx-1" type="button">Delete</button>
</div>
<div *ngIf="isCancelStandingOrderOpen">
    <child-component [data]="data" (onCloseModel)="onCloseModal($event)"></child-component>
</div>

Parent TS File

export class ParentComponent {
isCancelStandingOrderOpen: boolean = false;
data: any;
// ....
fetchData() {
// API Call
}

openCancelStandingOrder(line) {
this.isCancelStandingOrderOpen = true;
this.data = line;
}

onCloseModal(reload) {
// prevent unnessecery api calls
if (reload) {

// fetch list data again
this.fetchData();
}

// Do needful

}
}

Child HTML File

<ng-template #cancelStandingOrderModal let-modal>
    <div class="modal-header">
        <h4 class="modal-title" id="modal-basic-title">Title</h4>
        <button type="button" class="btn-close" aria-label="Close" (click)="onDismiss(modal)"></button>
    </div>
    <div class="modal-body">
        <!--  your content here -->
    </div>
    <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-outline-success" (click)="onSubmit(modal)">Save</button>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-outline-dark" (click)="onExit(modal)">Cancel</button>
    </div>
</ng-template>

Child TS File

export class ChildComponent {
// ...
@Input() data: any; // Get data from parent
@Output() public onCloseModal: EventEmitter<boolean> = new EventEmitter();
    @ViewChild('cancelStandingOrderModal', { static: false }) public formModal: TemplateRef<any>; // Note: Target html
        instance

        // Using bootstrap modals: https://ng-bootstrap.github.io/#/components/modal/examples
        constructor(private modalService: NgbModal) { }

        ngOnInit() {
        // Any data manipulation
        }

        ngAfterViewInit() {
        this.openModal();
        }

        openModal() {
        this.modalService.open(this.formModal, {
        backdrop: false,
        centered: true,
        size: 'lg',
        keyboard: false, // disable ESC key to close
        });
        }

        onSubmit(modal) {
        // Do needful.. api calls etc....
        // ...
        this.closeModel(modal, true)
        }

        onExit(modal) {
        // Execute any mathod befor closing modal
        // like unsaved data alert etc.
        this.closeModel(modal, false)
        }


        onDismiss(modal) {
        this.closeModel(modal, false)
        }

        closeModel(modal: any, reload: boolean = false) {
        this.onCloseModal.emit(reload)
        modal.close('close');
        }
        }

Simply, npm install --save @types/bootstrap try to match typing version with your bootstrap version. E.g. you have Bootstrap 4.3.1 then npm install --save @types/[email protected]

I do not feel there is anything wrong with using JQuery with angular and bootstrap, since it is included when adding bootstrap.

  1. Add the $ right after the imports like this


import {.......

declare var $: any;

@component.....
  1. modal should have an id like this

<div id="errorModal" class="modal fade bd-example-modal-lg" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myLargeModalLabel" ..............

  1. then have a method like this

showErrorModal() { $("#errorModal").modal('show'); }

  1. call the method on a button click or anywhere you wish

I'm currently using Bootstrap 4.3 in Angular 8 and want to open modal window programmatically (without actually clicking on some button as the official demo shows).

Following method works for me: The general idea is to create a button associated to a modal window. First make sure after you click this button, it can open the modal. Then give this button tag an id using hashtag, for example #hiddenBtn. In component ts file, import ViewChild from @angular/core and write below code:

@ViewChild('hiddenBtn', {static: false}) myHiddenBtn;

After that, whenever you want to open this modal window in your component ts code, write following code to simulate click operation

this.myHiddenBtn.nativeElement.click();

I am using a variable to control show and hide and rely on the button the open the modal

ts code:

showModel(){
  this.showModal = true;
}

html:

<button type="button" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal" (click)="showModel()>Open Modal</button>

<div *ngIf="showModal" >
  <div id="myModal" class="modal fade">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <div class="modal-body">
                <p>Some text in the modal.</p>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

For me I had to settimeout in addition to @arjun-sk solution's (link), as I was getting the error

setTimeout(() => {
      this.modalService.open(this.loginModal, { centered: true })
    }, 100);

Think I found the correct way to do it using ngx-bootstrap. First import following classes:

import { ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { BsModalService, ModalDirective } from 'ngx-bootstrap/modal';
import { BsModalRef } from 'ngx-bootstrap/modal/bs-modal-ref.service';

Inside the class implementation of your component add a @ViewCild property, a function to open the modal and do not forget to setup modalService as a private property inside the components class constructor:

@ViewChild('editSomething') editSomethingModal : TemplateRef<any>;
...

modalRef: BsModalRef;
openModal(template: TemplateRef<any>) {
  this.modalRef = this.modalService.show(template);
}
...
constructor(
private modalService: BsModalService) { }

The 'editSomething' part of the @ViewChild declaration refers to the component template file and its modal template implementation (#editSomething):

...
<ng-template #editSomething>
  <div class="modal-header">
  <h4 class="modal-title pull-left">Edit ...</h4>
  <button type="button" class="close pull-right" aria-label="Close" 
   (click)="modalRef.hide()">
    <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
  </button>
  </div>

  <div class="modal-body">
    ...
  </div>


  <div class="modal-footer">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-default"
        (click)="modalRef.hide()"
        >Close</button>
  </div>
</ng-template>

And finaly call the method to open the modal wherever you want like so:

console.log(this.editSomethingModal);
this.openModal( this.editSomethingModal );

this.editSomethingModal is a TemplateRef that could be shown by the ModalService.

Et voila! The modal defined in your component template file is shown by a call from inside your component class implementation. In my case I used this to show a modal from inside an event handler.

Best way I have found. Put #lgModal or some other variable name in your modal.

In your view:

<div bsModal #lgModal="bs-modal" class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myLargeModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" (click)="lgModal.hide()" aria-label="Close">
          <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
        </button>
        <h4 class="modal-title">Large modal</h4>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        ...
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

In your component

import {Component, ViewChild, AfterViewInit} from '@angular/core';
import {CORE_DIRECTIVES} from '@angular/common';
// todo: change to ng2-bootstrap
import {MODAL_DIRECTIVES, BS_VIEW_PROVIDERS} from 'ng2-bootstrap/ng2-bootstrap';
import {ModalDirective} from 'ng2-bootstrap/ng2-bootstrap';


@Component({
  selector: 'modal-demo',
  directives: [MODAL_DIRECTIVES, CORE_DIRECTIVES],
  viewProviders:[BS_VIEW_PROVIDERS],
  templateUrl: '/app/components/modals/modalDemo.component.html'
})
export class ModalDemoComponent implements AfterViewInit{

  @ViewChild('childModal') public childModal: ModalDirective;
  @ViewChild('lgModal') public lgModal: ModalDirective;

  public showChildModal():void {
    this.childModal.show();
  }

  public hideChildModal():void {
    this.childModal.hide();
  }

  ngAfterViewInit() {
      this.lgModal.show();
  }

}

The Way i used to do it without lots of coding is.. I have the hidden button with the id="employeeRegistered"

On my .ts file I import ElementRef from '@angular/core'

Then after I process everything on my (click) method do as follow:

this.el.nativeElement.querySelector('#employeeRegistered').click();

then the modal displays as expected..

This is one way I found. You can add a hidden button:

<button id="openModalButton" [hidden]="true" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">Open Modal</button>

Then use the code to "click" the button to open the modal:

document.getElementById("openModalButton").click();

This way can keep the bootstrap style of the modal and the fade in animation.

Easy way to achieve this in angular 2 or 4 (Assuming that you are using bootstrap 4)

Component.html

<button type="button" (click)="openModel()">Open Modal</button>

<div #myModel class="modal fade">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
     <div class="modal-header">
        <h5 class="modal-title ">Title</h5>
        <button type="button" class="close" (click)="closeModel()">
            <span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span>
        </button>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        <p>Some text in the modal.</p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Component.ts

import {Component, OnInit, ViewChild} from '@angular/core';

@ViewChild('myModal') myModal;

openModel() {
  this.myModal.nativeElement.className = 'modal fade show';
}
closeModel() {
   this.myModal.nativeElement.className = 'modal hide';
}

Include jQuery as usual inside script tags in index.html.

After all the imports but before declaring @Component, add:

declare var $: any;

Now you are free to use jQuery anywhere in your Angular 2 TypeScript code:

$("#myModal").modal('show');

Here is my full implementation of modal bootstrap angular2 component:

I assume that in your main index.html file (with <html> and <body> tags) at the bottom of <body> tag you have:

  <script src="assets/js/jquery-2.1.1.js"></script>
  <script src="assets/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

modal.component.ts:

import { Component, Input, Output, ElementRef, EventEmitter, AfterViewInit } from '@angular/core';

declare var $: any;// this is very importnant (to work this line: this.modalEl.modal('show')) - don't do this (becouse this owerride jQuery which was changed by bootstrap, included in main html-body template): let $ = require('../../../../../node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js');

@Component({
  selector: 'modal',
  templateUrl: './modal.html',
})
export class Modal implements AfterViewInit {

    @Input() title:string;
    @Input() showClose:boolean = true;
    @Output() onClose: EventEmitter<any> = new EventEmitter();

    modalEl = null;
    id: string = uniqueId('modal_');

    constructor(private _rootNode: ElementRef) {}

    open() {
        this.modalEl.modal('show');
    }

    close() {
        this.modalEl.modal('hide');
    }

    closeInternal() { // close modal when click on times button in up-right corner
        this.onClose.next(null); // emit event
        this.close();
    }

    ngAfterViewInit() {
        this.modalEl = $(this._rootNode.nativeElement).find('div.modal');
    }

    has(selector) {
        return $(this._rootNode.nativeElement).find(selector).length;
    }
}

let modal_id: number = 0;
export function uniqueId(prefix: string): string {
    return prefix + ++modal_id;
}

modal.html:

<div class="modal inmodal fade" id="{{modal_id}}" tabindex="-1" role="dialog"  aria-hidden="true" #thisModal>
    <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <div class="modal-header" [ngClass]="{'hide': !(has('mhead') || title) }">
                <button *ngIf="showClose" type="button" class="close" (click)="closeInternal()"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
                <ng-content select="mhead"></ng-content>
                <h4 *ngIf='title' class="modal-title">{{ title }}</h4>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body">
                <ng-content></ng-content>
            </div>

            <div class="modal-footer" [ngClass]="{'hide': !has('mfoot') }" >
                <ng-content select="mfoot"></ng-content>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

And example of usage in client Editor component: client-edit-component.ts:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { ClientService } from './client.service';
import { Modal } from '../common';

@Component({
  selector: 'client-edit',
  directives: [ Modal ],
  templateUrl: './client-edit.html',
  providers: [ ClientService ]
})
export class ClientEdit {

    _modal = null;

    constructor(private _ClientService: ClientService) {}

    bindModal(modal) {this._modal=modal;}

    open(client) {
        this._modal.open();
        console.log({client});
    }

    close() {
        this._modal.close();
    }

}

client-edit.html:

<modal [title]='"Some standard title"' [showClose]='true' (onClose)="close()" #editModal>{{ bindModal(editModal) }}
    <mhead>Som non-standart title</mhead>
    Some contents
    <mfoot><button calss='btn' (click)="close()">Close</button></mfoot>
</modal>

Ofcourse title, showClose, mhead and mfoot ar optional parameters.
