Thank’s.

It work with Ionic 3.9.2 and Angular 5 ?

I haven’t tested it but looking at the changelogs of ionic and angular there shouldn’t be any problems.

If possible, I would like a tutorial or a functional and up-to-date example but I already had a lot of mistakes

@joshmorony Maybe that’s a good time for you to update that particular tutorial. :wink:

No one to share his beautiful code? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Here’s the structure I use. It’s not all of the code, but it gives you the idea.

Code:

import { Validators, FormBuilder, FormGroup } from '@angular/forms';

export class MyPage {

    form : FormGroup;

    // Validation error messages that will be displayed for each form field with errors.
    validation_messages = {
        'myField': [
    		{ type: 'pattern', message: 'Please enter a number like 12345678/00.' }
    	]
    }

    constructor(public formBuilder: FormBuilder) {
        // Create the form and define fields and validators.
        this.form = this.formBuilder.group({
            myField: ['', Validators.pattern('[0-9]{8}/[0-9]{2}')]
        });

        // Initial value for the field.
        this.form.get('myField').setValue('11223344/55');
    }

    /*
     * Save form values.
     */
    save() {
        if (this.form.valid) {
            // Save your values, using this.form.get('myField').value;
        }
    }

Template:

    <form novalidate [formGroup]="form">

          <ion-item>
              <ion-label stacked>My Field Label</ion-label>
              <ion-input formControlName="myField"></ion-input>
          </ion-item>
          <div>
                <ng-container *ngFor="let validation of validation_messages.myField" >
              		<div *ngIf="form.get('myField').hasError(validation.type)">
              			<p>{{validation.message}}</p>
               		</div>
               	</ng-container>
          </div>

    </form>

This my coding . I hope it will work fine for you

My signup.ts

//import this

import { FormControl, FormGroup, Validators } from '@angular/forms';

export class SignupPage implements OnInit {
  signupform: FormGroup;
  userData = { "username": "", "password": "", "email": "", "name": "" };

  constructor() {
  }

  ngOnInit() {
    let EMAILPATTERN = /^[a-z0-9!#$%&'*+\/=?^_`{|}~.-]+@[a-z0-9]([a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?)*$/i;
    this.signupform = new FormGroup({
      username: new FormControl('', [Validators.required, Validators.pattern('[a-zA-Z ]*'), Validators.minLength(4), Validators.maxLength(10)]),
      password: new FormControl('', [Validators.required, Validators.minLength(6), Validators.maxLength(12)]),
      name: new FormControl('', [Validators.required, Validators.pattern('[a-zA-Z ]*'), Validators.minLength(4), Validators.maxLength(30)]),
      email: new FormControl('', [Validators.required, Validators.pattern(EMAILPATTERN)]),
    });
  }

And my html like this:

      <ion-item no-lines *ngIf="( signupform.get('name').hasError('minlength') || signupform.get('name').hasError('maxlength') ||signupform.get('name').hasError('pattern') ||signupform.get('name').hasError('required') ) && signupform.get('name').touched">

Hello, I’m getting ERROR TypeError: Cannot read property ‘get’ of undefined
any solution ? thanks

I got error like

Error: Uncaught (in promise): Error:
ngModel cannot be used to register form controls with a parent formGroup directive. Try using
formGroup’s partner directive “formControlName” instead. Example:

<div [formGroup]="myGroup">
  <input formControlName="firstName">
</div>

In your class:

this.myGroup = new FormGroup({
   firstName: new FormControl()
});

  Or, if you'd like to avoid registering this form control, indicate that it's standalone in ngModelOptions:

  Example:

  
<div [formGroup]="myGroup">
   <input formControlName="firstName">
   <input [(ngModel)]="showMoreControls" [ngModelOptions]="{standalone: true}">
</div>
