I have built my PasswordValidator as follows:
// Function to compare password with confirmPassword
export function ConfirmedValidator(controlName: string, matchingControlName: string) {
return (formGroup: FormGroup) => {
const control = formGroup.controls[controlName];
const matchingControl = formGroup.controls[matchingControlName];
if (matchingControl.errors && !matchingControl.errors.confirmedValidator) {
return;
}
if (control.value !== matchingControl.value) {
matchingControl.setErrors({ confirmedValidator: true });
} else {
matchingControl.setErrors(null);
}
};
}
I have created the form in ngOnInit:
ngOnInit() {
// Create user password form
this.cupForm = this.formBuilder.group( {
password: [null, Validators.pattern('^(?=.*?[A-Z])(?=.*?[a-z])(?=.*?[0-9])(?=.*?[^\\w\\s]).{8,}$')],
confirm_password: [null, Validators.required]
}, {
validator: ConfirmedValidator('password', 'confirm_password')
});
}
The validator works, but the Aufrauf group after formBuilder is shown as deprecated. How can I solve the problem? Do you have any idea?
FormGroup method with index type is deprecated in angular 11+, Now we need to provide validators as config options to formGroup
Change validator ==> validators
this.cupForm = this.formBuilder.group( {
password: [null, Validators.pattern('^(?=.*?[A-Z])(?=.*?[a-z])(?=.*?[0-9])(?=.*?[^\\w\\s]).{8,}$')],
confirm_password: [null, Validators.required]
}, {
validators: ConfirmedValidator('password', 'confirm_password')
});
Then add return type ValidationErrors|null to customValidator method
export function ConfirmedValidator(controlName: string, matchingControlName: string) {
return (formGroup: FormGroup):ValidationErrors|null => {
const control = formGroup.controls[controlName];
const matchingControl = formGroup.controls[matchingControlName];
if (matchingControl.errors && !matchingControl.errors.confirmedValidator) {
return;
}
if (control.value !== matchingControl.value) {
matchingControl.setErrors({ confirmedValidator: true });
} else {
matchingControl.setErrors(null);
}
};
}
