viewChildren

Initializer API

Initializes a view children query.

Query results are represented as a signal of a read-only collection containing all matched elements.

Create a children query in your component by declaring a class field and initializing it with the viewChildren() function.

          @Component({...})export class TestComponent {  divEls = viewChildren<ElementRef>('el');   // Signal<ReadonlyArray<ElementRef>>}

function viewChildren<LocatorT>(locator: string | ProviderToken<LocatorT>, opts?: { debugName?: string | undefined; } | undefined): Signal<readonly LocatorT[]>;
