Form manager plugin

This plugin simplifies working with HTML forms. It keeps in sync state and form values. To do this you need to access store from actions:

this.formStateManager = this.action.store.form
            .bind(this.form.current)
            .sync();

or from imported Store

this.formStateManager = Store.store.select(['form']).form
            .bind(this.form.current)
            .onChange(state => this.forceUpdate())
            .sync();

Please note that to keep view updated we are adding onChange callback and updating view which is not necessary if you accessing store from actions.

from now on all changes made in state will be reflected in form and visa-versa.

Form plugin returns object with two methods:

  • Reset - resets form to initial state

  • Destroy - method that should be called from your ngOnDestroy method

As a second parameter of bind method some parameters can be passed:

  • debounceTime - time to wait until changes are synced. Default: 100ms

Please note that input element type="file" is not synced. For this you will need to write custom element. See section Custom form elements
