How to disable right-click event in Angular 7?
I'm trying to disable that menu that appears on the page when the user right-clicks.
In Angular, I can catch the click event using (click)="onRightClick($event), but I only catch the "Left Click" in $event.
Remembering that if I do HostListener('click') myClick(){ } it's the same thing as (click)="myClick()
I searched the documentation for Angular and @ HostListener and didn't find a solution.
@HostListener documentation Link: Angular - HostListener
This is the code where I catch the click event, but it only catches the Left Click, when it is the Right Click, the code is not triggered.
@HostListener('click', ['$event'])
onClick(event) {
console.log(event);
}

The (click) as well as the parameter 'click' in @HostListener will execute as addEventListner, the click event works even only with the left click, if you want to make more iterations with the mouse you must use mousedown, example:
@HostListener('mousedown', ['$event'])
teste(event: MouseEvent)
{
switch (event.button) {
case 1:
console.log('Botão esquerdo do mouse! ');
break;
case 2:
console.log('Botão direito do mouse! ');
break;
default:
console.log('Outro botão de mouse (click no scroll, mouse gamer, etc)');
}
}
