You can retrieve Directive from Component's template with ViewChild like this:

@Directive({
  ...,
  selector: '[directive]',
})
export class DirectiveClass {
  method() {}
}

In your component:

import { Component, ViewChild } from '@angular/core'
import { DirectiveClass } from './path-to-directive'

@Component({
  ...,
  template: ''
})
export class ComponentClass {
  @ViewChild(DirectiveClass) directive = null

  ngAfterContentInit() {
    // How can i call functionFromDirective()?
    this.directive.method()
  }
}
