angular 5 - email validator

I use this statement in order to validate the email:

email: ['', [Validators.email, Validators.minLength(2)]]

It is not necessary in my application to enter an email. Is it possible to specify something like Validators.notRequired?

The issue seems to be Validators.email didn't allow optional input. It seems to be fixed in angular 6.0.0-beta4.

You can try workaround discussed here.

function emailOrEmpty(control: AbstractControl): ValidationErrors | null {
    return control.value === '' ? null : Validators.email(control); 
 }

And your field:

email: ['', [this.emailOrEmpty, Validators.minLength(2)]]
