Angular 2 Dart: How to detect click on everything but element?

Viewed 6727

On an app with a lot of different components within one component I have a custom Auto-suggest box. The box should be closed if the user clicks anywhere but on the Auto-suggest box (or containing elements of the auto-suggest box).

This is what I would do in jQuery:

$(document).on('click','body',function(e) {
if(e.target!='.suggestbox' && $(e.target).parent('.suggestbox').length <1 ) {
$('.suggestbox').remove();
}
});

However In my Angular Dart templates I have:

index.html:

<body>
<my-app>
// sub component
// sub sub component
</my-app>
</body>

I can think of a possibility in detecting a click on the topmost wrapper within the my-app component and send the action to the subcomponent but this is still not a body click.

What is the best way to solve this?
