As a few people have mentioned, the parameters in paramMap
should be accessed using the common Map
API:
To get a snapshot of the params, when you don’t care that they may change:
this.bankName = this.route.snapshot.paramMap.get('bank');
To subscribe and be alerted to changes in the parameter values (typically as a result of the router’s navigation)
this.route.paramMap.subscribe( paramMap => {
this.bankName = paramMap.get('bank');
})
Update: Aug 2017
Since Angular 4, params
have been deprecated in favor of the new interface paramMap
. The code for the problem above should work if you simply substitute one for the other.
Original Answer
If you inject ActivatedRoute
in your component, you’ll be able to extract the route parameters
import {ActivatedRoute} from '@angular/router';
...
constructor(private route:ActivatedRoute){}
bankName:string;
ngOnInit(){
// 'bank' is the name of the route parameter
this.bankName = this.route.snapshot.params['bank'];
}
If you expect users to navigate from bank to bank directly, without navigating to another component first, you ought to access the parameter through an observable:
ngOnInit(){
this.route.params.subscribe( params =>
this.bankName = params['bank'];
)
}
