I'm trying to create a dynamic form connected to a ngModel which allows user to add more controls as needed. Just as the picture bellow:
The form behaves as expected except when adding a new set of controls as it erases the previous input's content. Even though the model is not changed. I created this plunkr in order to demonstrate the behavior I am talking about.
This is the html template I wrote:
<tr *ngFor="let work of works; let i = index">
<td>
<select required id="cliente" class="form-control" [(ngModel)]="work.operation" name="operation">
<option>Operation 1</option>
<option >Operation 2</option>
</select>
</td>
<td>
<input required type="number" class="form-control" [(ngModel)]="work.cost"
name="cost">
</td>
<td>
<input required id="horas_maquina_previstas" type="number" class="form-control" [(ngModel)]="work.hours"
name="hours">
</td>
<td>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger btn-circle" (click)="removeWork(i)">Remove</button>
</td>
</tr>
and the typescript component definition:
import {Component, ChangeDetectionStrategy} from '@angular/core'
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
templateUrl: 'src/app.html'
})
export class App {
works = [];
addWork(){
this.works.push({});
}
removeWork(index){
this.works.splice(index, 1);
}
get diagnostic() {
return JSON.stringify(this.works);
}
}
I can't understand this behavior, and all the related questions I found were about older versions of angular and none had a similar problem.
Your controls need unique names to work properly in Angular2. So do the following:
<td>
<input required type="number" class="form-control" [(ngModel)]="work.cost"
name="cost-{{i}}">
</td>
