Email validation is being fired as we keep typing in textbox. I want this validation to be fired when user focuses out of the textbox
Below is my code:
<input class="form-control" pattern="[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,3}$"
name="Email" type="email" [(ngModel)]="model.Email" #Email="ngModel" required>
<div class="red" *ngIf="Email.errors && (Email.dirty || Email.touched)">
<div [hidden]="!Email.errors.pattern">
Please enter a valid email.
</div>
</div>
Please suggest me how can I achieve this.
Thanks in advance.
Starting with the version 6+ form field validation can be set via updateOn
property.
With template-driven forms:
<input [(ngModel)]="name" [ngModelOptions]="{updateOn: 'blur'}">
With reactive forms:
new FormControl('', {updateOn: 'blur'});
And if you have validators set:
new FormControl('', {validators: [Validators.required, Validators.email], updateOn: 'blur'})

This will be possible in version 5, which is not released yet.
See: https://github.com/angular/angular/issues/7113
In the meantime:
<input class="form-control" formControlName="userName" placeholder="User Name" type="text" (blur)="checkUserExists()"/>
<div class="alert-danger" *ngIf="userName.invalid && userName.touched">
<div *ngIf="userName.hasError('required')">User Name is required</div>
<div *ngIf="userName.hasError('userExists')">{{userName.errors.userExists}}</div>
</div>
checkUserExists() {
if (this.userName.value) {
this.regServ.userNameExists(this.userName.value)
.subscribe((exists) => {
if (exists) {
this.userName.setErrors({ userExists: `User Name "${this.userName.value}" already exists` });
}
});
}
}
