## Template-driven validation
|
||||
|
||||
To add validation to a template-driven form, you add the same validation attributes as you
|
||||
would with [native HTML form validation](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/HTML/HTML5/Constraint_validation).
|
||||
Angular uses directives to match these attributes with validator functions in the framework.
|
||||
|
||||
Every time the value of a form control changes, Angular will run validation and generate
|
||||
either a list of validation errors (which results in an INVALID status) or null (which
|
||||
results in a VALID status).

Every time the value of a form control changes, Angular runs validation and generates
|
||||
either a list of validation errors, which results in an INVALID status, or null, which results in a VALID status.

## Reactive form validation
|
||||
|
||||
In a reactive form, the source of truth is the component class. Instead of adding validators
|
||||
through attributes in the template, you add validator functions directly to the form control
|
||||
model in the component class. These functions are then called whenever the value of the
|
||||
control changes.

|
||||
|
||||
### Validator functions
|
||||
|
||||
There are two types of validator functions: sync validators and async validators.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Sync validators**: functions that take a control instance and immediately return either a
|
||||
a set of validation errors or `null`. These can be passed in as the second argument when
|
||||
you instantiate a `FormControl`.
|
||||
* **Sync validators**: functions that take a control instance and immediately return either a set of validation errors or `null`. You can pass these in as the second argument when you instantiate a `FormControl`.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Async validators**: functions that take a control instance and return a Promise
|
||||
or Observable that later emits a set of validation errors or `null`. These can be passed
|
||||
in as the third argument when you instantiate a `FormControl`.

or Observable that later emits a set of validation errors or `null`. You can
|

|

Note: for performance reasons, async validators are only run if all sync validators pass. Each
|
||||
must complete before errors are set.
