You may actually go with ViewChild API...
parent.ts
<button (click)="clicked()">click</button>
export class App {
@ViewChild(Child) vc:Child;
constructor() {
this.name = 'Angular2'
}
func(e) {
console.log(e)
}
clicked(){
this.vc.getName();
}
}
child.ts
export class Child implements OnInit{
onInitialized = new EventEmitter<Child>();
...
...
getName()
{
console.log('called by vc')
console.log(this.name);
}
}
