[SOLVED] Angular2 get values of dynamically created inputs

Angular2 get values of dynamically created inputs

I have this input which are created dynamically from list column, now I need to get all values of the inputs when some method occurs( imagine getAllValues() )

      <div *ngFor="let cell of column; let i = index;">
              <!-- Material design input-->
              <md-input type="{{cell.type}}" 
                 value="{{getInputValue(cell)}}" 
                 [placeholder]="cell.label">
              </md-input>
      </div>

Which would be the angular2 way of getting the values of all the generated inputs?

Solution

The easiest way to do it is by using ngForm

<form #myForm="ngForm">
      <div *ngFor="let cell of column; let i = index;">
          <md-input [type]="cell.type" 
             [name]="cell.name"      <!-- Note the 'name' has to be set -->
             [ngModel]="cell.value"
             [placeholder]="cell.label"></md-input>
      </div>
      <a (click)="getAllValues(myForm)">print values</a>
</form>

Then you will have the access to myForm.form.value object in getAllValues() function. Plnkr: https://plnkr.co/edit/84mzcNJliMmvszPq3xMm?p=preview
