Why angular 2 ngOnChanges not responding to input array push

Angular change detection only checks object identity, not object content.
Inserts or removals are therefore not detected.

What you can do is to copy the array after each update

insertIds(id:any) {
  this.metaIds.push(id);
  this.metaIds = this.metaIds.slice();
}

or use IterableDiffer to check for changes inside InputComponent in ngDoCheck like NgFor does.
