I am new to angular and I am not too sure where I am going wrong with my form. So I have this in my html
<form [formGroup] = "newEntryForm">
value: {{newEntryForm.value|json}}

Form is longer. My save function calls onSave. my .ts looks like this :
this.newEntryForm = this.fb.group({
Firstname: ['', Validators.required],
Lastname: ['', Validators.required],
AccountNumber: ['', [
Validators.required,
Validators.maxLength(25),
]],
IdNumber: ['', [Validators.required,
Validators.pattern('(?<Year>[0-9][0-9])(?<Month>([0][1-9])|([1][0-2]))(?<Day>([0-2][0-9])|([3][0-1]))(?<Gender>[0-9])(?<Series>[0-9]{3})(?<Citizenship>[0-9])(?<Uniform>[0-9])(?<Control>[0-9])'),
]],
Address1Home: ['', Validators.required],
Address2Home: ['', Validators.required],
Address3Home: ['', Validators.required],
PostalCodeHome: ['', Validators.required],
my OnSave function:
onSave(){
console.log(this.newEntryForm.value);
I also do have getters for each control in my .ts like this
get AccountNumber() {
return this.newEntryForm.get('AccountNumber');
}
get IdNumber() {
return this.newEntryForm.get('Id');
}
get Firstname() {
return this.newEntryForm.get('Firstname');
}
get Lastname() {
return this.newEntryForm.get('Lastname');
}
get EmailHome(){
return this.newEntryForm.get('EmailHome');
}
However I get a Cannot read property 'invalid' of null error and the form seems to be only keeping track of the Firstname, Lastname, Acc#, and ID but leaves everything else out. The form is a bit longer but I have shortened it for the question.
Any ideas of where I could be going wrong?Thanks :)
