THE SITUATION:
I am trying to make a very simple login form in my Ionic 2 app.
No matter what I try, I keep getting this error:
formGroup expects a FormGroup instance. Please pass one in.
THE CODE:
The page component:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { NavController } from 'ionic-angular';
import { FormGroup, Validators, FormBuilder } from '@angular/forms';
@Component({
selector: 'login-page',
templateUrl: 'login-page.html'
})
export class LoginPage {
loginForm: FormGroup;
constructor(public navCtrl: NavController, private formBuilder: FormBuilder) {}
ionViewDidLoad()
{
console.log('Login page loaded');
this.loginForm = this.formBuilder.group({
email: ['', Validators.required],
password: ['', Validators.required],
});
}
submitLogin()
{
console.log('Doing login..');
}
}
The view:
<ion-header>
<ion-navbar>
<ion-title>LoginPage</ion-title>
</ion-navbar>
</ion-header>
<ion-content padding>
<form [formGroup]="loginForm" (ngSubmit)="submitLogin()">
<ion-item>
<ion-label>Email</ion-label>
<ion-input #email type="email" formControlName="email"></ion-input>
</ion-item>
<ion-item>
<ion-label>Password</ion-label>
<ion-input #password type="text" formControlName="password"></ion-input>
</ion-item>
<button ion-button block type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
</ion-content>
THE QUESTION:
Do you why am I getting the error?
Do you know what is wrong with that code?
Thanks!
