I am using Reactive forms with mat autocomplete. I used autocomplete in other parts of my app but i can't figure this out. I have a formarray which adds an input every time I want to add a new sensor in my case. autocomplete works fine in my first input but when I try to add more inputs an error is shown : Error: Must supply a value for form control at index: 1 HTML: <div class="row"> <div class="input-field col s10"> <div class="form-group"> <div formArrayName="sensors_id"> <div *ngFor="let sensor of addHomeboxPForm.get('sensors_id')['controls']; let i = index"> <br> <input formControlName="{{i}}" type="text" placeholder="Select Sensor" aria-label="Number" matInput [matAutocomplete]="auto1"> <mat-autocomplete autoActiveFirstOption #auto1="matAutocomplete" [displayWith]="displayWith" > <mat-option (onSelectionChange)="updateForm($event, [sensor.sensors_id], 'sensors_id')" *ngFor="let sensor of filteredOptionsS | async" [value]="sensor.sensor_serial"> {{sensor.sensor_serial}} </mat-option> </mat-autocomplete> <div class="button-left"> <button *ngIf="addHomeboxPForm.controls.sensors_id.value.length > 1" type="button" class="fa" (click)="onRemoveItem(i)">RemoveSensor</button> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="input-field col s2"> <button type="button" class="btn" (click)="onAddItem()">AddSensor</button> </div> TS: formarray: 'sensors_id': this.fb.array([], Validators.required), updateForm(ev: any, idd: any, componentid: any) { if (ev.isUserInput) { if (componentid === 'sensors_id') { this.sensorId = idd; this.addHomeboxPForm['controls']['sensors_id'].setValue([ev.source.value]) } } } onAddItem() { (<FormArray>this.addHomeboxPForm.controls['sensors_id']).push(new FormControl('', Validators.required)); } onRemoveItem(index: number) { (<FormArray>this.addHomeboxPForm.controls['sensors_id']).removeAt(index); } I am new to this so i am sorry if i am not that clear..but i havent found a solution yet Continue reading...
