How to disable the button in Angular

angular1min read

In this tutorial, we are going to learn about how to disable or enable the HTML button element in an angular app.

Disabling the button

We can disable a button by passing the boolean value true to the disabled attribute.

app.component.html

<button [disabled]="isDisabled">Subscribe</button>

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

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

export class AppComponent {
  isDisabled = true;
}

To enable it back, we need to set the isDisabled property value to false.

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

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

export class AppComponent {
  isDisabled = false;
}

Disabling the button when input field is empty

We can also disable the button conditionally when an input field value is empty and enable it back if it has some data.

Example:

app.component.html

<input type="email" placeholder="Email" [(ngmodel)]="email" />
<button [disabled]="!email.length">Subscribe</button>

app.component.ts

import { Component } from '@angular/core';

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

export class AppComponent {
  email = '';
}
