How to add background-image using ngStyle with Angular and TypeScript?

To add background-image using ngStyle with Angular and TypeScript, we set the [style.background-image] attribute.

For instance, we write

<div
  *ngIf="backgroundImg.length > 0"
  [style.background-image]="backgroundImg"
></div>

in the template to set the background image to backgroundImg.

Then we write

import { Component, OnInit, Input } from "@angular/core";
import { DomSanitizer, SafeStyle } from "@angular/platform-browser";

@Component({
  selector: "my-component",
  templateUrl: "./my-component.component.html",
  styleUrls: ["./my-component.component.scss"],
})
export class MyComponent implements OnInit {
  public backgroundImg: SafeStyle;
  @Input() myObject: any;

  constructor(private sanitizer: DomSanitizer) {}

  ngOnInit() {
    this.backgroundImg = this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustStyle(
      "url(" + this.myObject.ImageUrl + ")"
    );
  }
}

in the component to set backgroundImg to a URL string.

We stop the string from being escaped with bypassSecurityTrustStyle.

To add background-image using ngStyle with Angular and TypeScript, we set the [style.background-image] attribute.
