Why default validity is false?

[zack9433]

I think don't set validity to false when initial.

If i set a valid value to input as default value when initialize form and this input valid-method="blur", but i get this form $valid is false.

Hi @zack9433

In this case,
after the form is blur, the $valid will change to true

Can you give me a DEMO to show the error you mention ?

I suppose that you want to validate when initial

Here's for your reference:

No, in my condition, the form has two part, one is default value and the other part is to let user to fill in.

I want check validation when user press submit.

Ok @zack9433

For example you have

<!-- contain default value -->
<input type="text" ng-model="model1" validation="something"/>

<!-- let user fill -->
<input type="text" ng-model="model2" validation="other"/>

Then you can validate the first model

$validation.submit('model1')

Just validate the first one in Initial

---

And If you need the $validation.checkValid value, you have to $validation.submit first to get the latest checkValid value

---

Is that your question ?

[zack9433]

The form contains some default and user defined inputs and all inputs validate-method is blur and I want call $validation.checkValid on submit to check current form validation state.

I think i will get form validation is true in two condition:

1. I directly press submit without modifying inputs
2. I fill in user defined input without modifying any default input value.

Both condition will get false because validity is false by default.
So, why set validity to false when init?

Thanks @zack9433
This is kind of bug.

Can you give me a PR on this ? (Coz i need some time to fix this after my other work) unless you can wait

check initial has value, then check $validity to true or false based on the default given value.

Hi @zack9433

I have found your DEMO issue here

$scope.submitForm = function(form) {
    $scope.result = $validationProvider.checkValid(form);
}

checkValid() is kind of manually check, it just get the latest valid status. #

We should use this with the validate method,
after the validate method, checkValid() can get the real latest valid status.

For example

$scope.submitForm = function (form) {
    $validationProvider.validate(form)
       .success(function () {
           $scope.result = $validationProvider.checkValid(form);
     });
}

This will get the real answer. 🍻

Thanks @huei90

But i think don't set validity when init is better than set to false. 🍻

Ok, i heard your voice =)

Hi @zack9433

I'm going to close this issue.

Whether set init validity to true false null are facing the same problem.

using checkValid to get the latest result, you have to execute submit first
That's only I can suggest.

I will add the Q&A section by reference to this issue =) #
