I have a typical Angular 2 app with many components.
I installed this modal component: https://github.com/pleerock/ng2-modal.
Is there a way to share the same modals between more components?
I explain better. I would like the same modal should open on click of different buttons inside different components. Is it possible?
I tried this kind of approach https://plnkr.co/edit/RgI1e9PobC7FloLHpEFD?p=preview but it's not the right way, because it always adds content to the modal.
I post it here below my app.ts file:

Following @echonax suggestion, I updated my plunk:
//our root app component
import {
NgModule,
ComponentRef,
Injectable,
Component,
Injector,
ViewContainerRef,
ViewChild, ComponentFactoryResolver} from "@angular/core";
import {BrowserModule} from '@angular/platform-browser'
import {Subject} from 'rxjs/Subject';
@Injectable()
export class SharedService {
showModal:Subject<any> = new Subject();
}
@Component({
selector: 'child-component',
template: `
<button (click)="showDialog()">show modal from child</button>
`,
})
export class ChildComponent {
constructor(private sharedService:SharedService) {}
showDialog() {
this.sharedService.showModal.next(CompComponent);
}
}
@Component({
selector: 'comp-comp',
template: `MyComponent`
})
export class CompComponent { }
@Component({
selector: 'modal-comp',
template: `
<div class="modal fade" id="theModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="theModalLabel">
<div class="modal-dialog largeWidth" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h4 class="modal-title" id="theModalLabel">The Label</h4></div>
<div class="modal-body" #theBody>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal" (close)="close()">Close</button>
</div></div></div></div>
`
})
export class ModalComponent {
@ViewChild('theBody', {read: ViewContainerRef}) theBody;
cmp:ComponentRef<any>;
cmpRef:ComponentRef<any>;
constructor(
sharedService:SharedService,
private componentFactoryResolver: ComponentFactoryResolver,
injector: Injector) {
sharedService.showModal.subscribe(type => {
if(this.cmp) {
this.cmp.destroy();
}
let factory = this.componentFactoryResolver.resolveComponentFactory(type);
this.cmpRef = this.theBody.createComponent(factory)
$('#theModal').modal('show');
});
}
close() {
if(this.cmp) {
this.cmp.destroy();
}
this.cmp = null;
}
}
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: `
<div>
<h2>Hello</h2>
<button (click)="showDialog()">show modal</button>
<child-component></child-component>
</div>
`,
})
export class App {
constructor(private sharedService:SharedService) {}
showDialog() {
this.sharedService.showModal.next(CompComponent);
}
}
@NgModule({
imports: [ BrowserModule ],
declarations: [ App, ModalComponent, CompComponent, ChildComponent],
providers: [SharedService],
entryComponents: [CompComponent],
bootstrap: [ App, ModalComponent ]
})
export class AppModule{}
Stay tuned!
