but in angular 2, I found this plunkr that adds 1 to a number each 500 miliseconds:

this is the code:

import {Component,Input} from 'angular2/core';
import {Observable} from 'rxjs/Rx';

@Component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    template: `
      <div>
        {{message}}
      </div>
    `
})
export class AppComponent {   

  constructor() {
    Observable.interval(1000)
              .map((x) => x+1)
              .subscribe((x) => {
                this.message = x;
              }):
  }
}

But I want to have a date taking one second until reach 0.

import { Component, NgOnInit, ElementRef, OnInit, OnDestroy } from 'angular2/core';
import { Observable, Subscription } from 'rxjs/Rx';

@Component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    template: `
  <div>
    {{message}}
  </div>
`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit, OnDestroy {

    private future: Date;
    private futureString: string;
    private counter$: Observable<number>;
    private subscription: Subscription;
    private message: string;

    constructor(elm: ElementRef) {
        this.futureString = elm.nativeElement.getAttribute('inputDate');
    }

    dhms(t) {
        var days, hours, minutes, seconds;
        days = Math.floor(t / 86400);
        t -= days * 86400;
        hours = Math.floor(t / 3600) % 24;
        t -= hours * 3600;
        minutes = Math.floor(t / 60) % 60;
        t -= minutes * 60;
        seconds = t % 60;

        return [
            days + 'd',
            hours + 'h',
            minutes + 'm',
            seconds + 's'
        ].join(' ');
    }


    ngOnInit() {
        this.future = new Date(this.futureString);
        this.counter$ = Observable.interval(1000).map((x) => {
           return Math.floor((this.future.getTime() - new Date().getTime()) / 1000);
        });

        this.subscription = this.counter$.subscribe((x) => this.message = this.dhms(x));
    }

    ngOnDestroy(): void {
        this.subscription.unsubscribe();
    }
}

 <my-app inputDate="January 1, 2018 12:00:00">Loading...</my-app>
