如何添加在 Angular 中输入 PIN 码时自动填充地址的功能

Question

This is my html file, where I want that when a user fills the PIN CODE, the rest of the addresses like DISTRICT, STATE and CITY should be auto filled using the API data.

The API is: https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/244713

<div class="cardParts5">
                <div class="cardTitle">
                    Communication Address
                </div>

                <div class="addressContainer">
                  
                    <div class="field1">
                        <mat-form-field class="example-full-width" appearance="fill" class="mat-form">
                            <mat-label>Pin Code*</mat-label>
                            <input matInput maxlength="6" [(ngModel)]="pinCode" name="pinCode">
                            <button (click)="getAdd(pinCode)">home</button>
                        </mat-form-field>
                    </div>

                    <div class="field2">
                        <mat-form-field class="example-full-width" appearance="fill" class="mat-form">
                            <mat-label>State*</mat-label>
                            <input matInput>
                        </mat-form-field>
                    </div>

                    <div class="field3">
                        <mat-form-field class="example-full-width" appearance="fill" class="mat-form">
                            <mat-label>District*</mat-label>
                            <input matInput>
                        </mat-form-field>
                    </div>

                    <div class="field4">
                        <mat-form-field class="example-full-width" appearance="fill" class="mat-form">
                            <mat-label>City/Village*</mat-label>
                            <input matInput>
                        </mat-form-field>
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>

this is my component.ts file

import { Component, OnInit, Input } from '@angular/core';
import { HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-final-pay',
  templateUrl: './final-pay.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./final-pay.component.css']
})



export class FinalPayComponent implements OnInit {
  pinDetails:any;
  finalAddress:any;
  public pinCode = '';

  constructor( private httpClient: HttpClient ) { }

  ngOnInit(): void { }
  
  getAdd(pinCode){
      this.http.get(`https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/${pinCode}`).subscribe((val)=>{
        this.pinDetails = JSON.stringify(val);
        this.finalAddress = JSON.parse(this.pinDetails);
        console.log(this.finalAddress);
    });
  }

Here I was trying to store the API details in finalAddress variable, but even if I write {{finalAddress.Message}} it gives me an error. If someone have a solution please help me.

You are in the right direction. You need to modify your code slightly :

You need to add [(ngModel)] to each of the input fields you want to populate the values. then assign them to the variables. The API returns multiple objects of address so you need to pick one (I picked first).

Update your code :

add these variables in the component :

  public state = '';
  public block = '';
  public district = '';
  public city = '';

then in html assign it to the respective input field :

<input matInput [(ngModel)]="state" />

update the add method as :

getAdd(pinCode) {
    this.httpClient
      .get(`https://api.postalpincode.in/pincode/${pinCode}`)
      .subscribe((val) => {
        const [address] = val as any;
        this.finalAddress = address;
        console.log(this.finalAddress); // it returns multiple postOffices
        const postOffices = this.finalAddress.PostOffice;
        if (postOffices.length > 0) {
          this.state = postOffices[0].State;
          this.district = postOffices[0].District;
          this.city = postOffices[0].Name;
        }
      });
  }  

Here is the working Demo
