Angular2 get existing validators of a formcontrol
You can display error messages like this:
onValueChanged(data?: any) {
if (!this.heroForm) { return; }
const form = this.heroForm;
for (const field in this.formErrors) {
// clear previous error message (if any)
this.formErrors[field] = '';
const control = form.get(field);
if (control && control.dirty && !control.valid) {
const messages = this.validationMessages[field];
for (const key in control.errors) {
this.formErrors[field] += messages[key] + ' ';
}
}
}
}
formErrors = {
'name': '',
'power': ''
};
validationMessages = {
'name': {
'required': 'Name is required.',
'minlength': 'Name must be at least 4 characters long.',
'maxlength': 'Name cannot be more than 24 characters long.',
'forbiddenName': 'Someone named "Bob" cannot be a hero.'
},
'power': {
'required': 'Power is required.'
}
};
