This is the current "angular way" to do it.

HTML

<h2 (click)="openFullscreen()">open</h2>
<h2 (click)="closeFullscreen()">close</h2>

Component

import { DOCUMENT } from '@angular/common';
import { Component, Inject, OnInit } from '@angular/core';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss']
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
  constructor(@Inject(DOCUMENT) private document: any) {}
  elem;

  ngOnInit() {
    this.elem = document.documentElement;
  }

  openFullscreen() {
    if (this.elem.requestFullscreen) {
      this.elem.requestFullscreen();
    } else if (this.elem.mozRequestFullScreen) {
      /* Firefox */
      this.elem.mozRequestFullScreen();
    } else if (this.elem.webkitRequestFullscreen) {
      /* Chrome, Safari and Opera */
      this.elem.webkitRequestFullscreen();
    } else if (this.elem.msRequestFullscreen) {
      /* IE/Edge */
      this.elem.msRequestFullscreen();
    }
  }

  /* Close fullscreen */
  closeFullscreen() {
    if (this.document.exitFullscreen) {
      this.document.exitFullscreen();
    } else if (this.document.mozCancelFullScreen) {
      /* Firefox */
      this.document.mozCancelFullScreen();
    } else if (this.document.webkitExitFullscreen) {
      /* Chrome, Safari and Opera */
      this.document.webkitExitFullscreen();
    } else if (this.document.msExitFullscreen) {
      /* IE/Edge */
      this.document.msExitFullscreen();
    }
  }
}

put the following code on the top of the component (before @Component) you want to trigger:

    interface FsDocument extends HTMLDocument {
      mozFullScreenElement?: Element;
      msFullscreenElement?: Element;
      msExitFullscreen?: () => void;
      mozCancelFullScreen?: () => void;
    }

    export function isFullScreen(): boolean {
      const fsDoc = <FsDocument> document;

      return !!(fsDoc.fullscreenElement || fsDoc.mozFullScreenElement || fsDoc.webkitFullscreenElement || fsDoc.msFullscreenElement);
    }

    interface FsDocumentElement extends HTMLElement {
      msRequestFullscreen?: () => void;
      mozRequestFullScreen?: () => void;
    }

    export function toggleFullScreen(): void {
      const fsDoc = <FsDocument> document;

      if (!isFullScreen()) {
        const fsDocElem = <FsDocumentElement> document.documentElement;

        if (fsDocElem.requestFullscreen)
          fsDocElem.requestFullscreen();
        else if (fsDocElem.msRequestFullscreen)
          fsDocElem.msRequestFullscreen();
        else if (fsDocElem.mozRequestFullScreen)
          fsDocElem.mozRequestFullScreen();
        else if (fsDocElem.webkitRequestFullscreen)
          fsDocElem.webkitRequestFullscreen();
      }
      else if (fsDoc.exitFullscreen)
        fsDoc.exitFullscreen();
      else if (fsDoc.msExitFullscreen)
        fsDoc.msExitFullscreen();
      else if (fsDoc.mozCancelFullScreen)
        fsDoc.mozCancelFullScreen();
      else if (fsDoc.webkitExitFullscreen)
        fsDoc.webkitExitFullscreen();
    }

    export function setFullScreen(full: boolean): void {
      if (full !== isFullScreen())
        toggleFullScreen();
    }

and on the ngOnInit method make a call to the setFullScreen(full: boolean) function:

ngOnInit(): void {
    setFullScreen(true);
}

You can try with requestFullscreen

I have create a demo on Stackblitz

fullScreen() {
    let elem = document.documentElement;
    let methodToBeInvoked = elem.requestFullscreen ||
      elem.webkitRequestFullScreen || elem['mozRequestFullscreen']
      ||
      elem['msRequestFullscreen'];
    if (methodToBeInvoked) methodToBeInvoked.call(elem);
}
