Angular 2: getting RouteParams from parent component

UPDATE:

Now that Angular2 final was officially released, the correct way to do this is the following:

export class ChildComponent {

    private sub: any;

    private parentRouteId: number;

    constructor(private route: ActivatedRoute) { }

    ngOnInit() {
        this.sub = this.route.parent.params.subscribe(params => {
            this.parentRouteId = +params["id"];
        });
    }

    ngOnDestroy() {
        this.sub.unsubscribe();
    }
}

ORIGINAL:

Here is how i did it using the “@angular/router”: “3.0.0-alpha.6” package:

export class ChildComponent {

    private sub: any;

    private parentRouteId: number;

    constructor(
        private router: Router,
        private route: ActivatedRoute) {
    }

    ngOnInit() {
        this.sub = this.router.routerState.parent(this.route).params.subscribe(params => {
            this.parentRouteId = +params["id"];
        });
    }

    ngOnDestroy() {
        this.sub.unsubscribe();
    }
}

In this example the route has the following format: /parent/:id/child/:childid

export const routes: RouterConfig = [
    {
        path: '/parent/:id',
        component: ParentComponent,
        children: [
            { path: '/child/:childid', component: ChildComponent }]
    }
];
