export class AppModule { }

Usage

In your template do:

<helios-form [config]="heliosConfig" (submit)="onSubmit" (error)="onError"></helios-form>

And in your .ts file create the heliosConfig object

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { HeliosSmartFormConfig, HeliosError, HeliosSmartFormTypes } from '@epsidev/helios'

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss']
})
export class AppComponent {
  
  public heliosConfig: HeliosSmartFormConfig<LoginData> = {
    id: 'helios-test-form',
    fields: [
      {
        label: 'Email',
        placeholder: 'Enter your email',
        name: 'email',
        type: HeliosSmartFormTypes.Email,
        validators: [
          Validators.required,
          Validators.email,
        ]
      },
      {
        label: 'Email',
        placeholder: 'Enter your password',
        name: 'password',
        type: HeliosSmartFormTypes.Password,
        validators: [
          Validators.required 
        ]
      },
    ]
  }

  onSubmit(loginData: LoginData) {
    console.log(loginData)
  }

  onError(error: HeliosError) {
    console.log('LOGIN ERROR', error.description)
  }

}

interface LoginData {
  email: string
  password: string
}

How to Patch Form Data

Add a Template Reference Variable in your HTML

<helios-smart-form #testForm [config]="config" (heliosSubmit)="onSubmit($event)"></helios-smart-form>

Then use the @ViewChild() decorator to get the Form reference

@ViewChild('testForm') private form: SmartFormComponent

Now you have access to the SmartForm public methods like "pathData"

this.form.patchData({someField: 'Some data'})
