[Angular] FormBuildAPI

Using FormBuilder API can simply our code, for example we want to refactor following code by using FormBuilder:

  form = new FormGroup({
    store: new FormGroup({
      branch: new FormControl(''),
      code: new FormControl('')
    }),
    selector: this.createStock({}),
    stock: new FormArray([
      this.createStock({ product_id: , quantity:  }),
      this.createStock({ product_id: , quantity:  }),
    ])
  });

First thing we need to do is actually inject FormBuilder:

  constructor(
    private fb: FormBuilder
  ) {}

Then:

  form = this.fb.group({
    store: this.fb.group({
      branch: '',
      code: ''
    }),
    selector: this.createStock({}),
    stock: this.fb.array([
      this.createStock({ product_id: , quantity:  }),
      this.createStock({ product_id: , quantity:  }),
    ])
  });

  createStock(stock) {
    return this.fb.group({
      product_id: parseInt(stock.product_id, ) || '',
      quantity: stock.quantity ||
    });
  }

So as you can see, you replace all new FormGroup() and new FormArray() by just fb.group & fb.array.

And meanwhile, we don't need FormControl any more, because FormBuild understand that it should be a FormControl.
