HTML
TS


        <mdb-carousel #carousel>
          [ Slides ]
      </mdb-carousel>



        import { Component, ViewChild, HostListener } from '@angular/core';

        @Component({
          selector: 'app-root',
          templateUrl: 'app.component.html'
        })

        export class AppComponent {
            @ViewChild('carousel') public el: any;

            @HostListener('swipeleft', ['$event']) public swipePrev(event: any) {
                this.el.previousSlide();
            }

            @HostListener('swiperight', ['$event']) public swipeNext(event: any) {
                this.el.nextSlide();
            }
        }

Usage

It’s easy to use, just add global HammerJS config in app.module.ts file:

app.module.ts



        import { HammerGestureConfig, HAMMER_GESTURE_CONFIG } from '@angular/platform-browser';
        declare var Hammer: any;

        export class MyHammerConfig extends HammerGestureConfig {
          overrides = <any> {
            'pan': { direction: Hammer.DIRECTION_All },
            'swipe': { direction: Hammer.DIRECTION_VERTICAL },
          };

          buildHammer(element: HTMLElement) {
            const mc = new Hammer(element, {
              touchAction: 'auto',
                  inputClass: Hammer.SUPPORT_POINTER_EVENTS ? Hammer.PointerEventInput : Hammer.TouchInput,
                  recognizers: [
                    [Hammer.Swipe, {
                      direction: Hammer.DIRECTION_HORIZONTAL
                    }]
                  ]
            });
            return mc;
          }
        }

        @NgModule({
          declarations: [
          ...
          ],
          imports: [
          ...
          ],
          providers: [
          ...,
            {
              provide: HAMMER_GESTURE_CONFIG,
              useClass: MyHammerConfig
            }
          ],
        })

Also the viewport meta tag is recommended, it gives more control back to the webpage by disabling the doubletap/pinch zoom. More recent browsers which support the touch-action property don’t require this.
