Represents a UI field in a form.
All form field editors (aka widgets) on a Form are rendered by means of a FormFieldComponent
that takes an instance of a FormFieldModel:
<adf-form-field [field]="field"></adf-form-field>This component depends on the FormRenderingService to map the FormFieldModel to a Form Field UI component
based on the field type or the metadata information.
| Name | Type | Default value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| field | FormFieldModel |
null | Contains all the necessary data needed to determine what UI Widget to use when rendering the field in the form. You would typically not create this data manually but instead create the form in APS and export it to get to all the FormFieldModel definitions. |
You would typically not use this component directly but instead use the <adf-form> component, which under the hood
uses <adf-form-field> components to render the form fields.
Forms defined in APS have the following default mappings for the form fields:
