## Component lifecycle Hooks
## Component lifecycle hooks
Directive and component instances have a lifecycle
as Angular creates, updates, and destroys them.
Developers can tap into key moments in that lifecycle by implementing
one or more of the *Lifecycle Hook* interfaces in the Angular `core` library.
Each interface has a single hook method whose name is the interface name prefixed with `ng`.
For example, the `OnInit` interface has a hook method named `ngOnInit`.
We might implement it in a component class like this:
For example, the `OnInit` interface has a hook method named `ngOnInit`
that Angular calls shortly after creating the component:
+makeExample('lifecycle-hooks/ts/app/peek-a-boo.component.ts', 'ngOnInit', 'peek-a-boo.component.ts (excerpt)')(format='.')

### Interface optional?
The interfaces are optional for JavaScript and Typescript developers from a purely technical perspective.
The JavaScript language doesn't have interfaces.
Angular can't see TypeScript interfaces at runtime because they disappear from the transpiled JavaScript.
Fortunately, they aren't necessary.
We don't have to add the lifecycle hook interfaces to our directives and components to benefit from the hooks themselves.
Angular instead inspects our directive and component classes and calls the hook methods *if they are defined*.
Angular will find and call methods like `ngOnInit()`, with or without the interfaces.
Nonetheless, we strongly recommend adding interfaces to TypeScript directive classes
in order to benefit from strong typing and editor tooling.

The `ngOnInit` and `ngOnDestroy` methods have more vital roles to play in real applications.
Let's see why we need them.
### OnInit
We turn to `ngOnInit` for two main reasons:
1. To perform complex initializations shortly after construction
1. To set up the component after Angular sets the input properties
Use `ngOnInit` for two main reasons:
1. to perform complex initializations shortly after construction
1. to set up the component after Angular sets the input properties
An `ngOnInit` often fetches data for the component as shown in the
[Tutorial](../tutorial/toh-pt4.html#oninit) and [HTTP](server-communication.html#oninit) chapters.
We don't fetch data in a component constructor. Why?
Because experienced developers agree that components should be cheap and safe to construct.
We shouldn't worry that a new component will try to contact a remote server when
created under test or before we decide to display it.
Constructors should do no more than set the initial local variables to simple values.
When a component must start working _soon_ after creation,
we can count on Angular to call the `ngOnInit` method to jumpstart it.
That's where the heavy initialization logic belongs.
Remember also that a directive's data-bound input properties are not set until _after construction_.
That's a problem if we need to initialize the directive based on those properties.
They'll have been set when our `ngOninit` runs.
Experienced developers agree that components should be cheap and safe to construct.

Our first opportunity to access those properties is the `ngOnChanges` method which
Angular calls before `ngOnInit`. But Angular calls `ngOnChanges` many times after that.
