AngularJS Form Validation

Share:


Angularjs providing  form validation facility, so that the user can be notified of invalid input.  This provides a safer user experience, because the user receives instant feedback on how to rectify the mistake. Maintain in brain that while client-side validation plays an important part in providing a good user experience, it can easily be circumvented and thus can not be trusted. Server-side validation is still necessary for a secure application.

A few central stops to notice here

novalidate is used to disable browser's native form validation

The ngModel directive provides the two-way data-binding by synchronizing the model to the view, as well as view to the model

app.js

 //app.js  
 // create angular app  
 var formValidationApp = angular.module('formValidationApp', []);  
 // create angular controller  
 formValidationApp.controller('formController', function($scope) {  
   // function to submit the form after all validation has occurred                 
   $scope.submitForm = function(isValid) {  
     // check to make sure the form is completely valid  
     if (isValid) {  
       alert('our form is amazing');  
     } else {  
       alert("All values are not filled Please check")  
     }  
   };  
 });
