I have a parent which is a form. This form is composed of two child components:
experiment create (parent)
I use a angular component -> mat-accordion to navigate through the two children components. I use @Input to have the result of what is filled in the children component into the parent. I want to submit the form only if a file is chosen for both of them. Therefore, I set a variable (in datasetList[i].fileValid) to say whether a file has been selected. Like this I disabled the button if a file is not updated. To disable the button I called the two function:
However, when the variable changed for the second child component it does not updated the disabled button. This works, only if I press "previous" and "next". The button is not disabled anymore. Like if I needed to reload or refresh the parent. Maybe because of the life cycle ?
Parent Component:
export class ExperimentCreateComponent implements OnInit {
data: any = {};
datasetList: any = [{ fileValid: false }];
metadataList: any = [{ fileValid: false }];
// Functions to navigate through the expansion panels
setStep(index: number) {
this.step = index;
}
nextStep() {
this.step++;
}
prevStep() {
this.step--;
}
isDatasetFilesValid() {
return this.datasetList.findIndex(function(item, i) {
return item.fileValid == false;
});
}
isMetadataFilesValid() {
return this.metadataList.findIndex(function(item, i) {
return item.fileValid == false;
});
}
}
Parent HTML:
<div class="jumbotron">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-8 offset-sm-2">
<form name="form" (ngSubmit)="f.form.valid" #f="ngForm" novalidate>
<mat-accordion class="headers-align">
<mat-expansion-panel id="datasetUpload" [expanded]="step === 0" (opened)="setStep(1)" hideToggle="true">
<app-creation-dataset [datasetList]="datasetList"></app-creation-dataset>
<mat-action-row>
<button mat-button color="warn" (click)="prevStep()">Previous</button>
<button mat-button color="primary" (click)="nextStep()">Next</button>
</mat-action-row>
</mat-expansion-panel>
<mat-expansion-panel id="metadataUpload" [expanded]="step === 1" (opened)="setStep(2)" hideToggle="true">
<app-creation-metadata [metadataList]="metadataList"></app-creation-metadata>
<mat-action-row>
<button mat-button color="warn" (click)="prevStep()">Previous</button>
<button mat-button color="primary" type="submit" [disabled]="(isMetadataFilesValid() != -1) && (isDatasetFilesValid() != -1)" (click)="createExperiment()">End</button>
</mat-action-row>
</mat-expansion-panel>
</mat-accordion>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Child Component:
export class CreationDatasetComponent implements OnInit {
@Input() datasetList: any = [{ fileValid: false }];
fileSelected: File;
constructor(private papa: Papa, private cd: ChangeDetectorRef) {}
ngOnInit() {}
onChange(files: FileList, index: number, dom: any) {
// Option to parse the file with papaparse
let options = {
header: true,
error: (err, file) => {
this.datasetList[index].fileValid = false;
alert(
"Unable to parse CSV file, please verify the file can be accessed and try again. Error reason was: " +
err.code
);
return;
},
complete: (results, file) => {
console.log("Parsed:", results, file);
let filename = file.name;
// Add the dataset to the datasetList
this.datasetList[index].headers = results.meta.fields;
this.datasetList[index].values = results.data;
this.datasetList[index].filename = filename;
this.datasetList[index].is_metadata = false;
this.datasetList[index].fileValid = true;
this.cd.detectChanges();
}
};
this.fileSelected = files[0]; // Get the file
// Call the function to parse the file, option is the callback
this.papa.parse(this.fileSelected, options);
}
// Add a dataset form
addDataset() {
this.datasetList.push({ fileValid: false });
}
// Remove a dataset form
removeDataset(index: number) {
this.datasetList.splice(index, 1);
}
}
Child HTML:
<div *ngFor="let dataset of datasetList; let index = index">
<div id="datasetFiles">
<h6>Select the type of dataset and browse the files:</h6>
<div class="container">
<div class="row justify-content-between">
<div class="col-6 d-flex align-items-center">
<input id="file" #file (change)="onChange(file.files, index, $event.currentTarget)" type="file">
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<button mat-icon-button color="primary" (click)="addDataset()">
<mat-icon>add_box</mat-icon>
</button>
</div>

So, to make this answer more clear, read comments on question.
I'm going to past the example for the @Output:
this is the CHILD.COMPONENT.TS
@Component({
selector: 'children',
templateUrl: './children.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./children.component.scss'],
providers: [{...
})
})
export class ChildrenComponent {
@Output() editedEmitter = new EventEmitter<number>();
private variableToPass = 10;
constructor() {}
functionToCall() {
this.editedEmitter.emit(20);
}
this is the PARENT.COMPONENT.HTML
<section>
<children (editedEmitter)="updateValue($event)"></children>
</section>
<!-- in the component you'll do
updateValue(val: number) {
this.variableToUpdate = val;
}
-->

[disabled]
requires a condition (true or false), the code you put in: isMetadataFilesValid() != -1 isDatasetFilesValid() != -1
is not a proper condition, they are two. If you want both conditions to be true, use the &&
notation.
[disabled]="(isMetadataFilesValid() != -1) && (isDatasetFilesValid() != -1)"
Alternatively I suggest moving the condition to the functions themselves so they return a boolean.
