Angular 4 - get input value

Question

I would like to know how to get the value from an input on angular 4. I looked over the documentation on angular and the example with the key event doesn't work very well for me and I can't find a proper example how to do this so please help me out

The problem: I try to read the input's value and after submiting the value to another component that will add the value to a select tag(e.g. send the name of the person to a list for a select tag)

Answer 1

In HTML add

<input (keyup)="onKey($event)">

And in component Add

onKey(event) {const inputValue = event.target.value;}
