Extract id from url using Angular2

Question

Hi I am trying to extract the id part of the url using Angular2.

http://localhost:3000/item/187809

I have been playing around with ActiveRoute

I suspect the issue is that you're using queryParams instead of just params.

params: An Observable that contains the required and optional parameters specific to the route.

queryParams: An Observable that contains the query parameters available to all routes.

so try this:

this.route.params.subscribe(params => {
   console.log(params);
   console.log(+params['id']);
});
