I have this API(Controller)

[Produces("application/json")]
[Route("api/[controller]")]
public class TypesFieldsController : Controller
{
        private IAddTypeFieldService addTypeFieldService;

        public TypesFieldsController(IAddTypeFieldService addTypeFieldService)
        {
            this.addTypeFieldService = addTypeFieldService;
        }

        //[Authorize("Bearer")]
        [AllowAnonymous]
        [HttpPost (Name ="PostTypeField")]
        public async Task<IActionResult> PostTypeField([FromBody] TypeFieldRequest typeFieldRequest)
        {
            AddTypeFieldCommand addTypeFieldCommand = new AddTypeFieldCommand(typeFieldRequest.Name);
            AddTypeFieldResult addTypeFieldResult = await this.addTypeFieldService.Process(addTypeFieldCommand);

            TypesFieldsDetailsModel typesFieldsDetailsModel = new TypesFieldsDetailsModel(addTypeFieldResult.TypeField.TypeFieldId, addTypeFieldResult.TypeField.Name);

            return new ObjectResult(typesFieldsDetailsModel);
        }

    }

And also this model

public class TypeField : Entity, IAggregateRoot
    {
        public string Name { get; private set; }

        public int Version { get; set; }

        public TypeField(string name)
        {
            this.Name = name;
        }
    }

Well, what I need now would be to take my form HTML and record in Mongo. This is mine HTML and the send button. This is why I must give the POST.

<div class="container">
  <form role="form" style="width:400px; margin: 0 auto;">
    <h1>Types Fields</h1>

    <div></div>

    <div class="required-field-block">
        <input type="text" placeholder="Nome" class="form-control">
        <div class="required-icon">
            <div class="text">*</div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="required-field-block">
        <input type="text" placeholder="Versão" class="form-control">
        <div class="required-icon">
            <div class="text">*</div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <button class="btn btn-primary">Criar</button>
</form>
</div>

And this here is the method ADD of my service. I just don’t understand where it comes from Itemname and how I pass a form whole.

public add<T>(itemName: string): Observable<T> {
    const toAdd = JSON.stringify({ ItemName: itemName  });

    return this.http.post<T>(this.actionUrl, toAdd);
}

How I give a post with the html above using Angular 6?

EDIT1 I did this: Component

export class CreateTypeFieldsComponent implements OnInit {

  private _createTypesFields: Model.CreateTypesFields;
  private form: FormGroup;

  constructor(private _createTypeService: CreateTypeFieldsService, private builder: FormBuilder) {

  }      

  ngOnInit() {

      this._createTypeService.postCreateTypeFields(this._createTypesFields)
      .subscribe( success => {
        if(success.Result){
          //anything here
        }
      },
      error =>{
      }
    );

    this.form = this.builder.group({
      nome: '',
      versao: ''
    }) 
  }

and in html I have this

<div class="container">
  <form [formGroup]="form" (ngSubmit)="add(form.value)" role="form" style="width:400px; margin: 0 auto;">
    <h1>Types Fields</h1>

    <div class="required-field-block">
        <input formControlName="nome" type="text" placeholder="Nome" class="form-control">
        <div class="required-icon">
            <div class="text">*</div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="required-field-block">
        <input formControlName="versao" type="text" placeholder="Versão" class="form-control">
        <div class="required-icon">
            <div class="text">*</div>
        </div>
    </div>    
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" >Criar</button>
</form>
</div>

when I run I get this error, while debugging in browser:

Can’t bind to 'formGroup' Since it isn’t a known Property of 'form'. (" ][formGroup]="form" (ngSubmit)=" add(form.value)" role="form" style="width:400px; margin: 0 auto;"> "): ng://Appmodule/Createtypefieldscomponent.html@1:8 No Provider for Controlcontainer (" [ERROR ->]

EDIT2

Well, with the help of the colleagues below, I managed to fix the mistakes, but it still doesn’t record, but the Insert in Mongodb is called, because the ID(GUID in Monodb) is generated each time I press the Create button. It happens, that the field Name comes empty and I think it has to do with the form I am sending. Below follows the changes I made and with that I eliminated the errors: Component

import { Component, OnInit, ModuleWithProviders } from '@angular/core';
import { FormControl,FormBuilder, FormGroup, NgControl } from '@angular/forms';
import { CreateTypeFieldsService } from '../create-type-fields.service';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-create-type-fields',
  templateUrl: './create-type-fields.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./create-type-fields.component.css'],
  providers: []
})
export class CreateTypeFieldsComponent implements OnInit {

  createForm = new FormGroup({
    Name: new FormControl
  })

  private _createTypesFields: Model.CreateTypesFields;
  private form: FormGroup;

  constructor(private _createTypeService: CreateTypeFieldsService, private builder: FormBuilder) { 

     this.form = this.builder.group({
      Name: ''
    }) 
  } 
  ngOnInit() { }

    onPostCreateTypeFields(){
      this.createForm.value;
      this._createTypeService.postCreateTypeFields(this._createTypesFields)
          .subscribe( success => {
            if(success.Result){
              //anything here
            }
          },
          error =>{
          }
        );
      }
    }

Service

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient, HttpEvent, HttpHandler, HttpInterceptor, HttpRequest, HttpHeaders } from '@angular/common/http';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs';
import { Configuration } from './app.constants';

const httpOptions = {
  headers: new HttpHeaders({ 'Content-Type': 'application/json' })
};

@Injectable({
  providedIn: 'root'
})
export class CreateTypeFieldsService {

  private actionUrl: string;
  private url: 'http://localhost:56758/api';

  constructor(private http: HttpClient, private _configuration: Configuration) { 
    this.actionUrl = _configuration.ServerWithApiUrl + 'TypesFields/';
  }

    public postCreateTypeFields(itemName: Model.CreateTypesFields): Observable<any> {

      const toAdd = JSON.stringify({ ItemName: itemName });

      return this.http.post(this.actionUrl, toAdd, httpOptions);
  }
}

HTML

<div class="container">
  <form [formGroup]="createForm" (ngSubmit)="onPostCreateTypeFields()" style="width:400px; margin: 0 auto;">
    <h1>Types Fields</h1>

    <div class="required-field-block">
        <input formControlName="Name" type="text" placeholder="Nome" class="form-control">
        <div class="required-icon">
            <div class="text">*</div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" >Criar</button>
</form>
</div>

When I write(create) the Name field comes null in Mongodb. See below Postman

{
    "error": false,
    "itens": [
       {
            "typeFieldId": "0faca34a-8a52-4f03-911a-cedc6f3e7b0c",

        }
    ],
    "message": ""
}

EDIT3

Well, my service was like this:

public postCreateTypeFields(itemName: Model.CreateTypesFields): Observable<any> {
   return this.http.post(this.actionUrl, itemName, httpOptions);
}

and changed the Name property to name, actually looking at the API by Swagger, he expected a name and not Name, the problem is that by Postman he accepted Name instead of name. Ok

@Lucasbrogni, the html I passed above is my form

I passed on the answer. The solution for your case is the use of the reactive Forms. https://angular.io/guide/reactive-forms Have a look at the documentation if you are in doubt.

@Lucasbrogni, I made an issue in the post(Edit2) and there I inform what is happening

– pnet

2018/07/17 at 13:27
your API expects to receive the Main Name ?

– Lucas Brogni

2018/07/17 at 13:41
Yes, public Guid Id { get; private set; }
 public string Name { get; private set; }

 public AddTypeFieldCommand(string name)
 {
 this.Name = name;
 }

The network output is going data?

– Lucas Brogni

2018/07/17 at 13:45
Apparently so

– pnet

2018/07/17 at 13:53
Debugging the Component in the browser, I have value here: this.createForm.value, I have exactly what is in the input, but here I have doubt, in this line this. _createTypesFields, because in the debug I have Undefined

It seems you forgot to import the reactive FormsModule where you declare your component.

import { ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    ReactiveFormsModule 
  ],
  declarations:[
      seuComponente
   ]

That’s right, but I had already solved it.

tries to see if in the network tab you are sending in the same way you send in Postman. In Postman the request works?

– Eduardo Vargas

2018/07/17 at 13:30
Yes, in Postman I can record and recover. How do I see in the network tab? What do I see there?

– pnet

2018/07/17 at 13:32
Just press F12 and select network. Then send the form and see if the request is the same way you send it to Postman.

In your case the itemName you are only receiving a string, so it will not be the whole form.

Create a formGroup as follows:

  <form [formGroup]="form" (ngSubmit)="add(form.value)" role="form" style="width:400px; margin: 0 auto;">
    <h1>Types Fields</h1>

In typescript make the form as follows:

constructor(private builder: FormBuilder)
form: FormGroup;

 this.form = this.builder.group({
      nome: '',
      versao: ''
})

And later add to your inputs:

<input formControlName="versao" type="text" placeholder="Versão" class="form-control">
<input formControlName="nome" type="text" placeholder="Nome" class="form-control">

After this within your post can be done as follows:

public add<T>(itemName: any): Observable<T> {
    const toAdd = JSON.stringify(itemName);

    return this.http.post<T>(this.actionUrl, toAdd);
}
