How to add Validation pattern not to allow only space in input Angular2?

Question

I used formBuilder in Angular2 and want to add validation pattern for not to allow "only spaces" in input.

Answer 1

Use the following:

Validators.pattern(/^\S*$/)

DEMO

Answer 2

space Not allowed

let nospacePattern = [a-zA-Z0-9]

Update

As per requirement in comment section.

need pattern not to allow only spaces. (space in between words are allowed).but when user enter spaces in input and try to save it then it should not allow to save

Validators.pattern(".*\\S.*[a-zA-z0-9 ]");

Update 2

Better and Cleaner way to use custom validation pattern like below -

controlName: ['', [Validators.required, this.noWhitespaceValidator]],

....
....
noWhitespaceValidator(control: FormControl) {
    const isWhitespace = (control && control.value && control.value.toString() || '').trim().length === 0;
    const isValid = !isWhitespace;
    return isValid ? null : { 'whitespace': true };
  }
