I have a basic image component and within it there is an img element. Is there a way to pass the native img attributes to image without having to define them all, such as alt and have them all applied to the img tag?
Here is some pseudo code of what I mean:
@Component({
selector: 'image',
template: '<img [src]="src" [...attrs]>'
})
export class ImageComponent {
@Input() attrs;
}
<image img.alt="Some Alternative Value">
<another-component></another-component>
</image>
Yeah, this can be done (if it's what you're after ..)
@Component({
selector: 'image',
template: '<img #imgRef [src]="src">'
})
export class ImageComponent {
@ViewChild('imgRef') imgRef: ElementRef<HtmlElement>;
@Input() attrs;
ngAfterViewInit() {
// assuming attrs is a key/value object
Object.entries(this.attrs).forEach(([key, value]) => {
this.imgRef.nativeElement.setAttribute(....)
})
}
}
As far as I'm aware of, it is not possible to reflect attributes from the component host into the component view, without having to manually define @Input()s for every possible attributes.
An possible alternative, if it applies to you, is to project an img element from outside your image component, inside the component's view.
<image>
<img alt="Some Alternative Value">
<another-component></another-component>
</image>
That way, you basically have the img element exposed, where you can freely add attributes, among others.
