How to do communication between components
As per below image, say I've got two @Component
(s):
MenuComponent
TableComponent
Both are ContainerComponent
children.
MenuComponent
fires an event (via EventEmitter
) to "say" we want all the table rows selected. This event is catched at the ContainerComponent
level.
What's the better strategy to let TableComponent
know that it has to select all the rows of its table?
I could use the @ViewChild
strategy, but I don't like direct components access. Any other idea?

You may want to consider making it at least three (3) components. Another component wrapping the menu + table that can filter/sort/map data. Listening for events either through @Output or through a shared service.The child components could become more "dumb", simply taking in data and emitting events. For something like "select all", the parent/container component can use something likemap()
to update a "selected" property for each "row" in the table.

Keep it simple
<app-container>
<app-menu #menu (selectAllRows)="table.selectAllRows($event)">
</app-menu>
<app-table #table>
</app-table>
</app-container>
That's basically equal to using@ViewChild
, but the handling is delegated to the template. Do you think this is the only solution?

Yeah but you're not using@ViewChild
. And there's plethora of solutions (services, view children, injectors - if you're severely debilitated -, ...), most are explained here. But this one is hands down the easiest to implement, read, and use (according to myself).

Thanks! I really don't need to have a service or to use injection to do this. It would be all boilerplate.

Well a service can be useful (again, that's my two cents) since it allows to easily share common behaviors. So if you have to write this once, use the code I provided, but if you have several instances of arrays that can have all of their rows selected, consider using either a service or a custom component with greater abstraction
