I have the following example of a component that toggles an element (div) when a button is clicked. The problem is that the first click does absolutely nothing: the changes don't propagate at all and it is needed a second click to achieve the desired behaviour.
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
var exec = require('child_process').exec; //electron part
@Component({
selector: 'my-component',
template: `
<button (click)="showDiv()">Toggle Div</button>
<div *ngIf="show" style="width: 50px; height: 50px; background-color: green">
</div>
`
})
export class MyComponent {
private show = false;
public showDiv() {
exec("wmic logicaldisk get caption", function(error, stdout, stderr){
console.log(stdout);
this.show = !this.show;
}.bind(this));
}
}
So the tricky part happens when I try to execute a Windows command prompt command, i.e. wmic logicaldisk get caption
using electron packages and update the component after the command returns its values.
In a scenario where some files are being copied using electron (exec("copy a.txt dir", function(error, stdout, stderr){...})
) and after the operation ends my component needs to be updated with some status (let's say: Files copied successfully!), this solution won't work.
SO what could be wrong in this approach?
