How to get device width and height in Ionic using TypeScript?
I am trying to get device width and height in ionic 2 using typescript.
In previous version of ionic 2 I used,
window.screen.width
window.screen.height
but in newer version this is not working.
How it is work with Type Script + ionic 2?
Solution 1:
You can use the Platform information for this.
Internally the platform
uses the window.innerWidth
and window.innerHeight
but
Using this method is preferred since the dimension is a cached value, which reduces the chance of multiple and expensive DOM reads.
Ionic 4/5
Docs: https://ionicframework.com/docs/angular/platform#width-number
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Platform } from '@ionic/angular';
@Component({...})
export MyApp {
constructor(platform: Platform) {
platform.ready().then(() => {
console.log('Width: ' + platform.width());
console.log('Height: ' + platform.height());
});
}
}
Ionic 2/3
Docs: https://ionicframework.com/docs/v3/api/platform/Platform/#width
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Platform } from 'ionic-angular';
@Component({...})
export MyApp {
constructor(platform: Platform) {
platform.ready().then(() => {
console.log('Width: ' + platform.width());
console.log('Height: ' + platform.height());
});
}
}
Solution 2:
Try using window.innerHeight and window.innerWidth to get height and width of the device respectively.
