change event on input in angular 2 is not working

Question

I want when user typing in input execute a function,like this :

<input
   id="cell"
   type="text"
   name="cell"
   ngControl="cell"
   (change)="topersian($event)"
>

topersian($event){
  $event.currentTarget.value = $event.currentTarget.value.toPersianNumber();
}

I don't want to use (keypress) or (keyup) because user can see the English number.

I use [(ngModelChange)] but can't access to $event, just get value! how to fix this problem ? or anybody have A better solution?

Answer 1

Looks like Change event not firing on text input using jquery in Chrome

The input event should do what you want

<input (input)="topersian($event)>

Answer 2

You can also use

(ngModelChange)="topersian($event)
