so I load my form with patchvalue, and for some reason the mat-select doesn't select based on the value.
Here is what I have:
<mat-form-field appearance="fill">
<mat-select name="serverTypeId" formControlName="serverTypeId">
<mat-option value="0">None</mat-option>
<mat-option value="1">Web</mat-option>
<mat-option value="2">Citrix</mat-option>
</mat-select>
</mat-form-field>
In my component I have this:
initServer(zoneId) {
return new FormGroup({
id: new FormControl(0),
zoneId: new FormControl(zoneId),
serverName: new FormControl('New Server', [Validators.required]),
serverTypeId: new FormControl(0, [Validators.required]),
});
}
addServer(j, id) {
const fg = <FormArray>this.region.get('zones');
if (fg) {
var serverfg = <FormArray>fg.controls[j].get('servers');
if (serverfg) {
serverfg.push(this.initServer(id));
}
}
}
and
_.each(r.zones, function (zone, i) {
self.addZone();
let zoneFG = self.getZones(self.region)[i];
if (zoneFG) {
zoneFG.patchValue(zone);
_.each(zone.servers, function (server, y) {
self.addServer(y, server.zoneId);
let serverFG = self.getServers(zoneFG)[y];
if (serverFG) {
serverFG.patchValue(server);
}
});
}
});
here is the model:
export interface ServerInfo {
id: number;
serverTypeId: number;
zoneId: number;
serverName: string;
}
Everything binds properly except the serverTypeId. What am I am missing here?
I think that the value field in each Mat-Option in your template is being interpreted as a string. if you enclose the value attribute in square brackets like this :
[value] = "0"
it should work
