How to access inputs in the dynamic component passed from the creating component about ng-dynamic-component HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi! Good question. I just thought it is obvious =)
It's actually standard angular @Inputs/@outputs on the dynamic components.
This lib will make sure to bind them like the angular does and also trigger all relevant life cycle hooks.
So from dynamic component point of view you do not do anything special at all (no magic) =)

@gund thanks for the quick reply! So I now understand how the inputs work, but am still at a loss for grasping how outputs do? I'm used to those being event emitters, but the source code looks like it just subscribes to changes on something... I'm too unfamiliar with inner workings to grasp complete comprehension.

Could you modify this http://plnkr.co/edit/wdYufHejtiDCMZldyKjc to demonstrate [ndcDynamicOutputs] interaction between parent/child? I think a concrete example will make things abundantly clear.

Also, thanks for making this library, it's helping solve a headache I was having 😃 !

Sure, I have made change to plunkr here: http://plnkr.co/edit/DA5yPFVLNBq50ton4gk9

Basically your @Outputs are ordinary Event Emitters (Observables) and the lib will internally subscribe to them and dispatch events to the functions you provided in [ndcDynamicOutputs].

Ah, great! The thought occurred to me late yesterday to assign actual EventEmitter, but I never got around to trying it that way. Something similar to what I've done here put into the documentation might be helpful to others. In any case, very clear now. Thanks so much!

No problem. I will consider adding an example to the docs =)
Cheers!
