| Sometimes, we don’t need a FormGroup, as our form might only consist of a single form control. Think of a search field that let’s you search for products in an e-commerce application. Technically, we don’t even need a <form> element for that. | |
| Angular comes with a directive formControl which doesn’t have to be inside a formGroup. We can simply add it to a single form control and are ready to go: | |
| --> | |
| <!-- no surrounding form --> | |
| <input type="search" [formControl]="seachControl"> | |
| <!-- | |
| The cool thing about form controls in Angular is, | |
| that we can listen reactively for changes that are happening to that control. | |
| Every form controls exposes an Observable propery valuesChanges() that we can subscribe to. | |
| So in order to get notified about changes in the example above, all we have to do is: | |
| --> | |
| @Component() | |
| export class SearchComponent implements OnInit { | |
| searchControl = new FormControl(); | |
| ngOnInit() { | |
| this.searchControl.valueChanges.subscribe(value => { | |
| // do something with value here | |
| }); | |
| } |
