[javascript] Angular 2 Sibling Component Communication

I also like to do the communication between 2 siblings via a parent component via input and output. it handles OnPush change notification better than using a common service. Or just use NgRx Store.

Example.

@Component({
    selector: 'parent',
    template: `<div><notes-grid 
            [Notes]="(NotesList$ | async)"
            (selectedNote)="ReceiveSelectedNote($event)"
        </notes-grid>
        <note-edit 
            [gridSelectedNote]="(SelectedNote$ | async)"
        </note-edit></div>`,
    styleUrls: ['./parent.component.scss']
})
export class ParentComponent {

    // create empty observable
    NotesList$: Observable<Note[]> = of<Note[]>([]);
    SelectedNote$: Observable<Note> = of<Note>();

    //passed from note-grid for selected note to edit.
    ReceiveSelectedNote(selectedNote: Note) {
    if (selectedNote !== null) {
        // change value direct subscribers or async pipe subscribers will get new value.
        this.SelectedNote$ = of<Note>(selectedNote);
    }
    }
    //used in subscribe next() to http call response.  Left out all that code for brevity.  This just shows how observable is populated.
    onNextData(n: Note[]): void {
    // Assign to Obeservable direct subscribers or async pipe subscribers will get new value.
    this.NotesList$ = of<Note[]>(n.NoteList);  //json from server
    }
}

//child 1 sibling
@Component({
  selector: 'note-edit',
  templateUrl: './note-edit.component.html', // just a textarea for noteText and submit and cancel buttons.
  styleUrls: ['./note-edit.component.scss'],
  changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush
})
export class NoteEditComponent implements OnChanges {
  @Input() gridSelectedNote: Note;

    constructor() {
    }

// used to capture @Input changes for new gridSelectedNote input
ngOnChanges(changes: SimpleChanges) {
     if (changes.gridSelectedNote && changes.gridSelectedNote.currentValue !== null) {      
      this.noteText = changes.gridSelectedNote.currentValue.noteText;
      this.noteCreateDtm = changes.gridSelectedNote.currentValue.noteCreateDtm;
      this.noteAuthorName = changes.gridSelectedNote.currentValue.noteAuthorName;
      }
  }

}

//child 2 sibling

@Component({
    selector: 'notes-grid',
    templateUrl: './notes-grid.component.html',  //just an html table with notetext, author, date
    styleUrls: ['./notes-grid.component.scss'],
    changeDetection: ChangeDetectionStrategy.OnPush
})
export class NotesGridComponent {

// the not currently selected fromt eh grid.
    CurrentSelectedNoteData: Note;

    // list for grid
    @Input() Notes: Note[];

    // selected note of grid sent out to the parent to send to sibling.
    @Output() readonly selectedNote: EventEmitter<Note> = new EventEmitter<Note>();

    constructor() {
    }

    // use when you need to send out the selected note to note-edit via parent using output-> input .
    EmitSelectedNote(){
    this.selectedNote.emit(this.CurrentSelectedNoteData);
    }

}


// here just so you can see what it looks like.

export interface Note {
    noteText: string;
    noteCreateDtm: string;
    noteAuthorName: string;
}
