[angular] document.getElementById replacement in angular4 / typescript?

So, im working with angular4 in my practice work and this is new for me. Luckyly, in order to get html elements and its values i used <HTMLInputElement> document.getElementById or <HTMLSelectElement> document.getElementById

Im wondering if there is any replacement for this in angular

  element: HTMLElement;

  constructor() {}

  fakeClick(){
    this.element = document.getElementById('ButtonX') as HTMLElement;
    this.element.click();
  }

You can just inject the DOCUMENT token into the constructor and use the same functions on it

import { Inject }  from '@angular/core';
import { DOCUMENT } from '@angular/common'; 

@Component({...})
export class AppCmp {
   constructor(@Inject(DOCUMENT) document) {
      document.getElementById('el');
   }
}

Or if the element you want to get is in that component, you can use template references.

Try this:

TypeScript file code:

(<HTMLInputElement>document.getElementById("name")).value

HTML code:

 <input id="name" type="text" #name /> 

For Angular 8 or posterior @ViewChild have an additional parameter called opts, which have two properties: read and static, read is optional. You can use it like so:

// ...
@ViewChild('mydiv', { static: false }) public mydiv: ElementRef;

constructor() {
// ...

<div #mydiv></div>

NOTE: Static: false is not required anymore in Angular 9. (just { static: true } when you are going to use that variable inside ngOnInit)
