Angular 2 - List of events

I'm newbie to Angular 2. What are the corresponding events from AngularJS to Angular 2? eg: ng-click to (click)

How about ng-init and all others events? I'm not having intellisense in VS .NET, so it's hard to guess.

Any help please!

Thanks

The default handled events should be mapped from the original HTML DOM component's events:

http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/dom_obj_event.asp

by just removing the on prefix.

onclick ---> (click)

onkeypress ---> (keypress)

etc...

You can also create your custom events.

However ngInit is not an HTML event, this is part of the Angular's Component lifecycle, and in Angular 2 they are handled using "hooks", which are basically specific method names inside your component that will be called whenever the component enters the specific cycle. Like:

ngOnInit

ngOnDestroy

etc...

This is one of the big advantages of Angular2. Not every event needs a customized ng-xxx directive anymore.
With custom elements and all other libraries producing all kinds of custom events, this approach doesn't fly.

In Angular2 the (eventName)="expression" binding syntax allows to subscribe to any known and unknown event.

The $event variable is still available (eventName)="myEventHandler($event)"
