How do you detect an onBlur event in Angular2? I want to use it with
<input type="text">
Can anyone help me understand how to use it?
Use (eventName)
while binding event to DOM, basically ()
is used for event binding. Also, use ngModel
to get two-way binding for myModel
variable.
Markup
<input type="text" [(ngModel)]="myModel" (blur)="onBlurMethod()">
Code
export class AppComponent {
myModel: any;
constructor(){
this.myModel = '123';
}
onBlurMethod(){
alert(this.myModel)
}
}
Alternative 1
<input type="text" [ngModel]="myModel" (ngModelChange)="myModel=$event">
Alternative 2 (not preferable)
<input type="text" #input (blur)="onBlurMethod($event.target.value)">
For a model-driven form to fire validation on blur
, you could pass updateOn
parameter.
ctrl = new FormControl('', {
updateOn: 'blur', //default will be change
validators: [Validators.required]
});
