how to get [(ngmodel)] from another component in Angular 6

Question

I'm searching for the products with the pipe. The pipe is working when [(ngModel)] in product.component.html but is not working when [(ngModel)] in app.component.html.

product-find.pipe.ts:

import { Pipe, PipeTransform} from '@angular/core';
import { Product } from './product/product';

@Pipe({
  name: 'productFind'
})

export class ProductFindPipe implements PipeTransform {

  transform(value: Product[], filterText?: string): Product[] {
    filterText = filterText ? filterText.toLocaleLowerCase() : null;
    console.log(filterText);
    return filterText ? value.filter((x: Product) => x.productName.toLocaleLowerCase().indexOf(filterText) >= 0) : value;
  }

}

app.component.html:

...

<input [(ngModel)]="filterText" name="filterText" class="form-control" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">

...

product.component.html:

<div>
  <input class="form-control" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
</div>
<div>
  <ul class="list-group">
    <li *ngFor="let product of products |productFind:filterText" class="list-group-item">
      ...
    </li>
  </ul>
</div>

How to fix this?

Thanks.

You need declare @Input decorator inside product.component.ts file.

In product.component.ts:

import { Component, Input } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-product',
  templateUrl: 'your-template-url-here
})
export class ProductComponent {

    @Input() filterText: any; 

        //rest of your code here
}

In product.component.html

<div>
    <ul class="list-group">
       <li *ngFor="let product of products |productFind:filterText" class="list-group-item">
                        ...
        </li>
    </ul>
</div>

Now in you app.component.html like:

<input [(ngModel)]="filterText" name="filterText" class="form-control" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
<app-product [filterText]="filterText"><app-product>

Hope this will work for you!!!!
