Angular 4 Zooming

Question

I am new to Angular 4 and trying to find a library for pan zooming. I am not able to find any package on npm. I tried to add jquery in my project, then added jquery.panzoom, but because jquery.panzoom is written in JavaScript and my angular project is in TypeScript there is no @types for jquery.panzoom so it is not working.

Steps i followed

1) npm install --save jquery

2) npm install --save @types/jquery

3) import * as $ from 'jquery';

   //till here jquery works fine
    $('.sample').click(function () {
      alert('div clicked.');
    });

3) npm install --save jquery.panzoom

   $('#panzoomDiv').panzoom(
      {
        $zoomIn: $('.zoom-in'),
        $zoomOut: $('.zoom-out'),
        $zoomRange: $('.zoom-range'),
        $reset: $('.reset')
      } 
    );

here i get the error

src/app/app.component.ts (22,22): Property 'panzoom' does not exist on type 
'JQuery<HTMLElement>'.

then after going through this, i added

interface JQuery {
  panzoom(options: any): any;
}

to my typings.d.ts file. Now it does compiles but gives this run time error

 ERROR TypeError: __WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_1_jquery__(...).panzoom is not a function

can someone please redirect me to a correct solution or a different zooming library.

Something like this

Update

tried this approach, still doesn't work.

    <div style="display:block; padding: 10px;">
      <button id="btn-zoom-in-workspace"
              class="zoom-out">Zoom Out
      </button>
      <button id="btn-zoom-null-workspace"
              class="reset">Reset
      </button>
      <button id="btn-zoom-out-workspace"
              class="zoom-in">Zoom In
      </button>
      <input type="number" class="zoom-range">
   </div>
   <div id="panzoomDiv" #panzoomDiv>
   <div>

    import * as $ from 'jquery';

    @Component({
    selector: 'app-root',
    templateUrl: './app.component.html',
    styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
    })
    export class AppComponent implements  AfterViewInit {
    @ViewChild('panzoomDiv') panzoomDiv: ElementRef;
     ngAfterViewInit(): void {
        if (this.panzoomDiv)
           $(this.panzoomDiv.nativeElement).panzoom({
                $zoomIn: $('.zoom-in'),
                $zoomOut: $('.zoom-out'),
                $zoomRange: $('.zoom-range'),
                $reset: $('.reset')
        });
     }
  }

Answer 1

• npm install --save jquery

• Install jquery Panzoom

Add these to the scripts array of angular-cli.json

"scripts": [ 
"../node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js", 
"../node_modules/jquery.panzoom/dist/jquery.panzoom.min.js" 
],

In template

   <div style="display:block; padding: 10px;">
      <button id="btn-zoom-in-workspace"
              class="zoom-out" #reference>Zoom Out
      </button>
      <button id="btn-zoom-null-workspace"
              class="reset" #reference>Reset
      </button>
      <button id="btn-zoom-out-workspace"
              class="zoom-in" #reference>Zoom In
      </button>
      <input type="number" class="zoom-range">
   </div>
   <div id="panzoomDiv" #panzoomDiv>
   <div>

In the component use this

declare var $ : any;

@ViewChild('panzoomDiv') panzoomDiv: ElementRef;
//get all the other element references using elementref and use it in function below
     ngAfterViewInit(): void {
        if (this.panzoomDiv)
           $(this.panzoomDiv.nativeElement).panzoom({
                $zoomIn: $(#reference),
                $zoomOut: $(#reference),
                $zoomRange: $(#reference),
                $reset: $(#reference)
        });
     }
