Dynamically updating css in Angular 2

To use % instead of px or em with @Gaurav's answer, it's just

<div class="home-component" [style.width.%]="80" [style.height.%]="95">
Some stuff in this div</div>

This should do it:

<div class="home-component" 
     [style.width]="width + 'px'" 
     [style.height]="height + 'px'">Some stuff in this div</div>

You can also use hostbinding:

import { HostBinding } from '@angular/core';

export class HomeComponent {
    @HostBinding('style.width') width: Number;
    @HostBinding('style.height') height: Number;
} 

Now when you change the width or height property from within the HomeComponent, this should affect the style attributes.

If you want to set width dynamically with variable than use [] braces instead {{}}:

 <div [style.width.px]="[widthVal]"  [style.height.px]="[heightVal]"></div>

 <div [style.width.%]="[widthVal]"  [style.height.%]="[heightVal]"></div>

The accepted answer is not incorrect.

For grouped styles one can also use the ngStyle directive.

<some-element [ngStyle]="{'font-style': styleExpression, 'font-weight': 12}">...</some-element>

import {Component,bind} from 'angular2/core';
import {bootstrap} from 'angular2/platform/browser';
import {FORM_DIRECTIVES} from 'angular2/form';

import {Directive, ElementRef, Renderer, Input,ViewChild,AfterViewInit} from 'angular2/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'my-app',
    template: `
    <style>
       .myStyle{
        width:200px;
        height:100px;
        border:1px solid;
        margin-top:20px;
        background:gray;
        text-align:center;
       }
    </style>

          <div [class.myStyle]="my" [style.background-color]="randomColor" [style.width]="width+'px'" [style.height]="height+'px'"> my width={{width}} & height={{height}}</div>
    `,
    directives: []
})

export class AppComponent {
  my:boolean=true;
  width:number=200px;
  height:number=100px;
  randomColor;
  randomNumber;
  intervalId;
  textArray = [
    'blue',
    'green',
    'yellow',
    'orange',
    'pink'
  ];


  constructor() 
  {
    this.start();
  }

      start()
      { 
        this.randomNumber = Math.floor(Math.random()*this.textArray.length);
        this.randomColor=this.textArray[this.randomNumber];
        console.log('start' + this.randomNumber);
        this.intervalId = setInterval(()=>{
         this.width=this.width+20;
         this.height=this.height+10;
         console.log(this.width +" "+ this.height)
         if(this.width==300)
         {
           this.stop();
         }

        }, 1000);
      }
      stop()
      {
        console.log('stop');
        clearInterval(this.intervalId);
        this.width=200;
        this.height=100;
        this.start();

      }
 }

bootstrap(AppComponent, []);

You can dynamically change the style(width and height) of div by attaching dynamic value to inline [style.width] and [style.hiegh] property of div.

In your case you can bind width and height property of HomeComponent class with the div's inline style width and height property like this... As directed by Sasxa

<div class="home-component" 
     [style.width]="width + 'px'" 
     [style.height]="height + 'px'">Some stuff in this div
</div>

For the working demo take a look at this plunker(http://plnkr.co/edit/cUbbo2?p=preview)

   //our root app component
import {Component} from 'angular2/core';
import {FORM_DIRECTIVES,FormBuilder,AbstractControl,ControlGroup,} from "angular2/common";

@Component({
  selector: 'home',
  providers: [],
  template: `
     <div class="home-component" [style.width]="width+'px'" [style.height]="height+'px'">Some this div</div>
     <br/>
     <form [ngFormModel]="testForm">
        width:<input type="number" [ngFormControl]="txtWidth"/> <br>
        Height:<input type="number"[ngFormControl]="txtHeight" />
     </form>
  `,
  styles:[`

      .home-component{
        background-color: red;
        width: 50px;
        height: 50px;
    }

  `],
  directives: [FORM_DIRECTIVES]
})
export class App {
  testForm:ControlGroup;
  public width: Number;
  public height: Number;
  public txtWidth:AbstractControl;
  public txtHeight:AbstractControl;

  constructor(private _fb:FormBuilder) {
      this.testForm=_fb.group({
        'txtWidth':['50'],
        'txtHeight':['50']
      });

      this.txtWidth=this.testForm.controls['txtWidth'];
      this.txtHeight=this.testForm.controls['txtHeight'];

      this.txtWidth.valueChanges.subscribe(val=>this.width=val);
      this.txtHeight.valueChanges.subscribe(val=>this.height =val);
  }
}

All the above answers are great. But if you were trying to find a solution that won't change the html files below is helpful

 ngAfterViewChecked(){
    this.renderer.setElementStyle(targetItem.nativeElement, 'height', textHeight+"px");
}

You can import renderer from import {Renderer} from '@angular/core';

I liked the look of WenhaoWuI's idea above, but I needed to identify the div with class .ui-tree in the PrimeNG tree component to set the height dynamically. All the answers I could find required the div to be named (ie #treediv) to enable the use of @ViewChild(), @ViewChildren(), @ContentChild(), @ContentChilden() etc. This was messy with a third party component.

I finally found a snippet from Günter Zöchbauer :

ngAfterViewInit() {
  this.elRef.nativeElement.querySelector('.myClass');
}

This made it easy:

@Input() height: number;
treeheight: number = 400; //default value

constructor(private renderer: Renderer2, private elRef: ElementRef) {  }

ngOnInit() {
    this.loading = true;
    if (this.height != null) {
        this.treeheight = this.height;
    }   
}

ngAfterViewInit() {
    this.renderer.setStyle(this.elRef.nativeElement.querySelector('.ui-tree'), 'height', this.treeheight + "px");
}

you can achive this by calling a function also

<div [style.width.px]="getCustomeWidth()"></div>

  getCustomeWidth() {
    //do what ever you want here
    return customeWidth;
  }

In Html:

<div [style.maxHeight]="maxHeightForScrollContainer + 'px'">
</div>

In Ts

this.maxHeightForScrollContainer = 200 //your custom maxheight

My solution was a combination of the @ViewChild() and ngAfterViewInit() function.

HTML:

<div
  class="form-field text-form-field"
  #textInputContainer
>
  <label *ngIf="field?.label"> My Label </label>
  <input type="text"/>
</div>

TS:

  @ViewChild("textInputContainer") textInputContainer;

  constructor() {}

  ngOnInit(): void {}

  ngAfterViewInit(): void   {
    this.textInputContainer.nativeElement.style.width = "50%";
  }
