I would like to create form with fields created in directive. Data binding of data working correctly but validation doesn't work.
this is html:
<body ng-controller="MainCtrl">
<h1>form</h1>
<form name="form">
<div ng-repeat="conf in config">
<div field data="data" conf="conf"></div>
</div>
</form>
<pre>{{data|json}}</pre>
</body>
controller and field directive:
var app = angular.module('plunker', []);
app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.data = {name: '', age: ''}
$scope.config = [
{field: 'name', required:true},
{field: 'age'}
];
});
app.directive('field', function ($compile) {
return {
scope: {
data: '=',
conf: '='
},
link: function linkFn(scope, element, attrs) {
// field container
var row = angular.element('<div></div>');
// label
row.append(scope.conf.field + ': ');
// field input
var field = angular.element('<input type="text" />');
field.attr('name', scope.conf.field);
field.attr('ng-model', 'data.' + scope.conf.field);
if (scope.conf.required) {
field.attr('required', 'required');
}
row.append(field);
// validation
if (scope.conf.required) {
var required = angular.element('<span>required</span>');
required.attr('ng-show',
'form.' + scope.conf.field + '.$error.required');
row.append(required);
}
$compile(row)(scope);
element.append(row);
}
}
});
problem is that validation for field name
doesn't work and validation text required
is never shown. May be form
in ng-show
is unknown in directive. But I don't know how to pass form into field directive. Can you help me how to fix it? Thanks.
here is live code: http://plnkr.co/edit/j0xc7iV1Sqid2VK6rMDF?p=preview
The FormGroup class exposes an API that enables us to set validators dynamically. We need to listen to optionB value changes and based on that we add or remove the validators we require. We also call the control's updateValueAndValidity() method, as we need to recalculate the value and validation status of the control.
We can add Validators dynamically using the SetValidators or SetAsyncValidators. This method is available to FormControl, FormGroup & FormArray. There are many use cases where it is required to add/remove validators dynamically to a FormControl or FormGroup.
Todo:
before:
$compile(row)(scope);
element.append(row);
after:
element.append(row);
$compile(row)(scope);
p/s in 'planker' for facilities add css:
.ng-invalid {
border: 1px solid red;
}
You'll need to use ng-form directive and push the dynamic field directly into form object.
