   We can't always justify the cost and time to build handcrafted forms, 
   especially if we'll need a great number of them, they're similar to each other, and they change frequently 
   to meet rapidly changing business and regulatory requirements.
   
   我们不可能一直觉得手动编写表单和需要的工作量和时间成正比，特别是当我们需要编写大量的表单，它们非常类似，而且它们需要随着商务和政策需求的迅速变化而变化。
   
   It may be more economical to create the forms dynamically, based on metadata that describe the business object model.
   
   基于商务对象模型里面的元数据，动态建立表单可能更加划算。
   
   In this cookbook we show how to use `ngFormModel` to dynamically render a simple form with different control types and validation.
   It's a primitive start. 
   It might evolve to support a much richer variety of questions, more graceful rendering, and superior user experience.
   All such greatness has humble beginnings.
  
   在本文中，我们会展示怎么利用`ngFormModel`动态渲染一个简单的表单， 包含不同类型控制器和验证规则。
   这是一个原始的开始，任何伟大都是从谦卑开始的。我们可以在这个基础上添加种类丰富的问卷问题，更加优美的渲染和更优越的用户体验。
   
   In our example we use a dynamic form to build an online application experience for heroes seeking employment.
   The agency is constantly tinkering with the application process.
   We can create the forms on the fly *without changing our application code*.
   
   在这个例子中，我们使用动态表单，为正在找工作的英雄们创建一个在线申请体验。中介在不断的修改申请流程。我们可以在*不修改程序*的情况下，动态即时的建立一个表格

   ## Question Model
   ## 问卷问题模型
      
   The first step is to define an object model that can describe all scenarios needed by the form functionality.
   The hero application process involves a form with a lot of questions. 
   The "question" is the most fundamental object in the model.
   
   第一步是定义一个对象模型，用来描述所有表单功能需要的场景。英雄申请流程涉及到一个有很多问卷问题的表单。问卷问题是最基础的对象模型。

   We have created `QuestionBase` as the most fundamental question class.
   
   下面是我们建立的非常基础的问卷问题类，名叫`QuestionBase`。

+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/question-base.ts','','app/question-base.ts')

:marked
   From this base we derived two new classes in `TextboxQuestion` and `DropdownQuestion` that represent Textbox and Dropdown questions. 
   The idea is that the form will be bound to specific question types and render the appropriate controls dynamically. 
   
   在这个基础上，我们衍生了两个新类`TextboxQuestion` 和 `DropdownQuestion`，分别代表文本框和下拉框。这么做的初衷是，表单能动态的绑定特定的问卷问题类型，并动态渲染合适的控制器。
   
   `TextboxQuestion` supports multiple html5 types like text, email, url etc via the `type` property.
   
   `TextboxQuestion`通过`type`属性，支持多种HTML5元素类型，比如文本、邮件、网址等。

+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/question-textbox.ts',null,'app/question-textbox.ts')(format='.')

:marked
   `DropdownQuestion` presents a list of choices in a select box.
   
   `DropdownQuestion`代表一个拥有一个列表可选项目的选择框。
   
+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/question-dropdown.ts',null,'app/question-dropdown.ts')(format='.')

:marked
   Next we have defined `QuestionControlService`, a simple service for transforming our questions to an ngForm control group. 
   In a nutshell, the control group consumes the metadata from the question model and allows us to specify default values and validation rules.
   
   下一步，我们定义了`QuestionControlService`，一个可以把我们的问卷问题转换为ngForm控制组的服务。简而言之，这个ngForm控制组使用问卷模型的元数据，允许我们制定默认值和验证规则。
+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/question-control.service.ts',null,'app/question-control.service.ts')(format='.')

   ## Question form components
   ## 问卷表单组件
   
   Now that we have defined the complete model we are ready to create components to represent the dynamic form.
   现在我们已经有一个已定义的完整模型，我们可以创建一个动态表单的组件。

:marked
  `DynamicForm` is the entry point and the main container for the form.
  
  `DynamicForm`是我们表单的主要载体和切入口。 
+makeTabs(
  `cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/dynamic-form.component.html,
   cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/dynamic-form.component.ts`,
  null,
  `dynamic-form.component.html,
   dynamic-form.component.ts`
)  
:marked
  It presents a list of questions, each question bound to a `<df-question>` component element.
  The `<df-question>` tag matches the `DynamicFormQuestionComponent`,
  the component responsible for rendering the details of each _individual_ question based on values in the data-bound question object.  
  
  它显示一个问卷问题的列表，每个问题都在`<df-question>`组件元素之内。`<df-question>`对应于`DynamicFormQuestionComponent`，该组件的作用是根据问卷问题对象的值来渲染每个问卷问题的细节。
  
+makeTabs(
  `cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/dynamic-form-question.component.html,
   cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/dynamic-form-question.component.ts`,
  null,
  `dynamic-form-question.component.html,
   dynamic-form-question.component.ts`
)
:marked
  Notice this component can present any type of question in our model. 
  We only have two types of questions at this point but we can imagine many more.
  The `ngSwitch` determines which type of question to display.
  
  请注意，这个组件能代表模型里的任何问卷问题类型。目前，我们只有两种类型的问卷问题，但是我们可以添加更多类型。`ngSwitch`确定显示哪一个类型的问卷问题。
  
  In both components  we're relying on Angular's **ngFormModel** to connect the template HTML to the
  underlying control objects, populated from the question model with display and validation rules.
  
  在两个组件中，我们依赖Angular的**ngFormModel**来把模板HTML链接到底层控制对象，该对象已经从问卷问题模型里获取了显示和验证规则，

   ## Questionnaire data
   ## 问卷数据
:marked
  `DynamicForm` expects the list of questions in the form of an array bound to  `@Input() questions`.

   `DynamicForm`预期得到一个问题列表，该列表是一个关联到`@Input() questions`数组。
    
   The set of questions we have defined for the job application is returned from the `QuestionService`. 
   In a real app we'd retrieve these questions from storage.
   
   `QuestionService`返回我们在定义工作申请表的时候设定的这套问题。在一个真实的应用程序中，我们会从存储库里面提取。
   
   The key point is that we control the hero job application questions entirely through the objects returned from `QuestionService`. 
   Questionnaire maintenance is a simple matter of adding, updating, and removing objects from the `questions` array.
   
   最关键的点是，我们全部通过从`QuestionService`返回的对象，来控制英雄工作申请问卷。要维护问卷，我们要做的是非常简单的添加、更新和删除`问题`数组中的对象。
   
+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/question.service.ts','','app/question.service.ts')  

:marked
  Finally, we display an instance of the form in the `AppComponent` shell.

  最后，我们在`AppComponent`里面显示表单。
  
+makeExample('cb-dynamic-form/ts/app/app.component.ts','','app.component.ts')

<a id="dynamic-template"></a>

   ## Dynamic Template
   ## 动态模板
   Although in this example we're modelling a job application for heroes, there are no references to any specific hero question 
   outside the objects returned by `QuestionService`. 
   
   虽然在这个例子中，我们是在为英雄工作申请表建模，但是除了`QuestionService`返回的对象外，没有其它任何地方有指定英雄问卷相关的内容。
   
   This is very important since it allows us to repurpose the components for any type of survey
   as long as it's compatible with our *question* object model. 
   The key is the dynamic data binding of metadata used to render the form 
   without making any hardcoded assumptions about specific questions. 
   In addition to control metadata, we are also adding validation dynamically.
   
   这点非常重要的，因为只要与我们的*问卷*对象模型兼容，它允许我们为任何类型的调查重复使用这些组件。关键是运用动态数据绑定的元数据来渲染表单，不对问卷问题有任何硬性的假设。除了控制起元数据外，我们还可以动态添加验证规则。

   The *Save* button is disabled until the form is in a valid state. 
   When the form is valid, we can click *Save* and the app renders the current form values as JSON. 
   This proves that any user input is bound back to the data model.
   Saving and retrieving the data is an exercise for another time.
   
   在表单的验证通过之前，*保存*按钮是禁用的。当表单验证通过后，我们可以点击*保存*，程序会把当前的值渲染成为Json。它证明了任何用户输入都被传到了数据模型。如何储存和提取数据是另一个问题。

   The final form looks like this:
