Angular 2 FormGroup Add Validators dynamic

问题:

i'm tring to add validator to FormContol dynamic (not on initialization) and it's not work....

the code:

this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].validator = Validators.Required;

Did anyone do it?

回答1:

Try this, it should work

this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].setValidators(Validators.required);

For multiple validators

this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].setValidators([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(2)]);

But doing so will override any validators that are provided during initialization

EDIT :

To reflect the form controls with newly added Validators immediately, we have to call this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].updateValueAndValidity(); after setting validators dynamically.

this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].setValidators(Validators.required);
this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].updateValueAndValidity();

DEMO for the same

* NOTE *

updateValueAndValidity() will trigger a valueChanges event even if the value didn't really change (potentially resulting in an infinite loop, if you're calling it from within a valueChanges subscription). You can prevent that by using the optional parameter object: { onlySelf: true, emitEvent: false}

回答2:

While Amit Chigadani's answer is correct, please bear in mind the following.

While this solution works for updating validators, the new validators themselves will not be run, until you change the form fields value. it is thus recommended to run the following function straight after you update you validators ;)

In laymans terms: Add the line, If you want your ng-valid and ng-invalid classes to update themselves.

this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].setValidators([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(2)]);
this.formGroup.controls["firstName"].updateValueAndValidity();

Another sidenote. In Angular2, one shouldn't use the array syntax to get form group controls, but this

this.formGroup.get("firstName");

got the solution we can do with the below code.

const validators = new Array<Validators>();
          validations.forEach(validation => {
            switch (validation.Type) {
              case 'required':
                validators.push(Validators.required);
                break;
              case 'minLength':
                validators.push(Validators.minLength(parseInt(validation.Expression, 10)));
                break;
              case 'maxLength':
                validators.push(Validators.maxLength(parseInt(validation.Expression, 10)));
                break;
              case 'pattern':
                validators.push(Validators.pattern(validation.Expression));
                break;
            }
          });
          this.form.controls[i].setValidators(validators);
 }
      }
    });
