How to read form post data in Angular 2 typescript?

Question

If the site redirects to my target site with a form post, I want to be able to read the incoming data from the post request using angular 2 typescript. Is there a way to do it?

you need to pass the data from one components to another is it so ?.. — balajivaishnav, Feb 09 '17 at 07:21
no. My post data is coming from external site. I want to capture it at my end. — namrata, Feb 09 '17 at 07:22
He means a website posts to his website simply put. as my answer states, this requires server handling if you want something like this. — Mathijs Segers, Feb 09 '17 at 07:24
create a model class and declare corresponding variables, get the data from an external site via services and assign the data to the model's variables, inject the model as a provider in app.module, now you can import that model and access the variables with the external site values, thats it — balajivaishnav, Feb 09 '17 at 07:34
Is there a way to extract it in Owin in - ConfigureAuth(IAppBuilder app) ? — namrata, Feb 09 '17 at 07:36
Not an expert here, but any C# handler should be able to access the values, how to share with angular no experience with that. — Mathijs Segers, Feb 09 '17 at 07:55

Basically it's not possible with just angular. Simply put this answer: How to read the post request parameters using javascript

However, depending on your server you have options; When parsing the request you could use a server side language to generate your index.html. e.g. a PHP file.

At this point you could print the post data into a script tag e.g. with PHP

<script type="text/javascript">
  var somePostData = <?php echo $_POST['some_data']; ?>
</script>

Could that be something for you to work with? Of course you'd have to properly escape the data. then it would be accessible like:

window["somePostData"] in your angular code, or you define the type.
