Angular, onLoad function on an iFrame

Solution 1:

Commenting on a year old question. For cases where there are more than 1 iframes, I needed to bind "onload" events on to. I did this approach.

Directive

APP.directive('iframeOnload', [function(){
return {
    scope: {
        callBack: '&iframeOnload'
    },
    link: function(scope, element, attrs){
        element.on('load', function(){
            return scope.callBack();
        })
    }
}}])

Controller

APP.controller('MyController', ['$scope', function($scope){

    $scope.iframeLoadedCallBack = function(){
        // do stuff
    }
}]);

DOM

<div ng-controller="MyController">
    <iframe iframe-onload="iframeLoadedCallBack()" src="..."></iframe>
</div>

Solution 2:

try defining the function within controller as:

window.uploadDone=function(){
  /* have access to $scope here*/
}

Solution 3:

For anyone using Angular 2+, It's simply:

<iframe (load)="uploadDone()"></iframe>

No global function, works with multiple iframe.

Solution 4:

For anyone ending up here, the ng-onload plugin is the perfect solution to this issue. It doesn't pollute the global namespace and doesn't require you to create one-off directives when all you want is to call a simple scope function.

Solution 5:

for those that inject the iframe dynamically, you could do the following

html...

<div #iframeContainer></div>

ts...

@Component({
  selector: 'app-iframe-onload',
  templateUrl: './iframe-onload.component.html'
})
export class IframeOnload implements AfterViewInit {

@ViewChild('iframeContainer') iframeContainer: ElementRef;

ngAfterViewInit(): void {
  this.injectIframe();
}

private injectIframe(): void {
  const container = this.iframeContainer.nativeElement;
  const iframe = document.createElement('iframe');
  iframe.setAttribute('width', '100%');
  iframe.setAttribute('src', 'https://example.com/');
  iframe.setAttribute('height', 'auto');
  iframe.setAttribute('frameBorder', '0');
  iframe.addEventListener('load', this.iframeOnLoadtwo);
  container.appendChild(iframe);

}

public iframeOnLoadtwo(): void {
  console.log('iframe loaded...');
}

}
