I have 2 arrays. I'm implementing an Angular drag drop and I want to use FormArray to save the array in which the element was dropped into.
The problem is that I can't apply formcontrol to the div as it gives an error
Error: No value accessor for form control with name: 'language'
Here is the html
<div>
<div class="example-container">
<h2>Selected Languages</h2>
<div
cdkDropList
#todoList="cdkDropList"
[cdkDropListData]="anotherarray"
[cdkDropListConnectedTo]="[doneList]"
class="example-list"
(cdkDropListDropped)="drop($event)"
formControlName="language">
<div class="list-group-item list-group-item-action " *ngFor="let item of anotherarray" cdkDrag>
{{item}}
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="example-container">
<h2>Available Languages</h2>
<div
cdkDropList
#doneList="cdkDropList"
[cdkDropListData]="testingarray"
[cdkDropListConnectedTo]="[todoList]"
class="example-list"
(cdkDropListDropped)="drop($event)">
<div class="list-group-item list-group-item-action " *ngFor="let item of testingarray" cdkDrag>{{item}}</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary my-2" translate>saveButtonLabel
<fa-icon *ngIf="saveIcon" [icon]="saveIcon" [spin]="saveIcon.iconName === 'spinner'"></fa-icon>
</button>
</form>
Currently we cannot use a formControl with Angular Drag and Drop as it works with div and we cannot add formContol to it. Therefore we need to use the event cdkDropListDropped to update our model manually every time an item has been dropped.
