Angular2 cannot access 'this' inside a promise

Question

I am unable to call a function inside promise of ng2-sweetalert2 plugin

swal({
    title: \'Are you sure?\',
    text: \"You won\'t be able to revert this!\"         


        

Answer 1

Assuming you're using TypeScript, you could use the arrow function expression, which preserves the value of this.

swal({...}).then((x) => console.log(this)); // now 'this' is your component
