Remove object from array typescript(Angular 2)

Solution 1

<li *ngFor="let languague of listOfLanguagues; let i = index">

<button type="submit" (click)="removeLanguague(languague, i)" >Remove</button>

removeLanguague(languague, index){
    this.listOfLanguagues.splice(index, 1);
}

Solution 2

You have to use splice and not slice

this.listOfLanguagues.splice(this.listOfLanguagues.indexOf(languague), 1);

slice returns a section of an array, and splice removes elements from an array and, if necessary, inserts new elements in their place, returning the deleted elements

    I just try to delete object from array in typescript, in angular 2.4.0, let me show the code, its my html file:

    button type="submit" (click)="addAnotherLanguague()" >Add non native languague</button>
    <li *ngFor="let languague of listOfLanguagues;">
         <div class="form-item form-item--text">
               <label class="label invisible">Years studied</label>
               <input type="number" min="0" [(ngModel)]="languague.yearsStudied" name="years"  placeholder="Years studied"/>
         </div>
    <button type="submit" (click)="removeLanguague(languague)" >Remove</button> // here you can see use of method
    </li>
    

    And there is component.ts

    (...)
    this.listOfLanguagues = new Array <LanguagueInformationData>();
        }
    addAnotherLanguague(){
            this.listOfLanguagues.push(new LanguagueInformationData);
        }
        removeLanguague(languague){
            this.listOfLanguagues.slice(this.listOfLanguagues.indexOf(languague), 1);
        }
    (...)
    

    Adding works well, but I tried everything to remove and still dont know how to transfer that languague's reference, I dont want to use .pop, because I want to remove exactly this languague below which is button. Can you help me?

    [edit] I got problem again with this code, because every time I try to add new languague(push) it clears my data on classes existing in array, do you know what can cause it ?
