I am trying to set a default value in mat-select within an *ngFor, however, accessing the element in the array from the loop is not working as wanted. Is there any similar way to this approach?
.ts file:
persons: Person[] = .. //consist of Person with name and age
.html file:
<div *ngFor="let person of persons">
{{ person.name }}
<mat-form-field>
<mat-select [(value)]="person.age">
<mat-option value="10-20">10-20</mat-option>
<mat-option value="20-30">20-30</mat-option>
</mat-select>
</mat-form-field>
</div>
To set a default value, you need to populate your array with a value assigned to each object's age
property. Then mat-select
[(value)]
binding can set the matching value as default.
Example ( Stackblitz demo ):
export class AppComponent {
persons = [
{
name: 'John Smith',
age: '30-40'
},
{
name: 'Patrick Stewart',
age: '10-20'
}
,
{
name: 'Peter Parker',
age: '20-30'
}
]
}
If your array is dynamic, you can run a loop to assign a default value to each element as well.
ngOnInit() {
this.persons.forEach(item => item.age = '10-20'); // set the default age you want
}
html:
<div *ngFor="let person of persons">
{{ person.name }}
<mat-form-field>
<mat-select [(value)]="person.age">
<mat-option value="10-20">10-20</mat-option>
<mat-option value="20-30">20-30</mat-option>
<mat-option value="30-40">30-40</mat-option>
</mat-select>
</mat-form-field>
</div>
