acceptedIf

Conditional accepted: the value must be one of the accepted set only when a sibling field matches a trigger condition.

Signature​

NguardValidators.Boolean.acceptedIf(
    fieldKey: string,
    value?: primitive,
    isStrict?: boolean,
): ValidatorFn
ParameterTypeDefaultDescription
fieldKeystring—The key of the sibling field whose value triggers the rule
valueprimitive (optional)undefinedIf provided, the sibling must equal this value to trigger the rule
isStrictbooleanfalseIf true, the equality check against value is strict (===)

When the condition is not met any value passes — the rule only kicks in when the sibling matches.

Reactive forms​

import { FormControl, FormGroup } from '@angular/forms';
import { NguardValidators } from 'ng-nguard';

// 'agreedToProTerms' is required to be accepted whenever 'subscriptionTier' is 'pro'
new FormGroup({
    subscriptionTier: new FormControl(''),
    agreedToProTerms: new FormControl(false, [
        NguardValidators.Boolean.acceptedIf('subscriptionTier', 'pro'),
    ]),
});

Template-driven forms​

<!-- Shorthand: required to be accepted when 'isPaid' is truthy -->
<input
    type="checkbox"
    ngModel
    name="agreedToTerms"
    [nguardAcceptedIf]="'isPaid'"
/>

<!-- Object form: required to be accepted when sibling equals a specific value -->
<input
    type="checkbox"
    ngModel
    name="agreedToProTerms"
    [nguardAcceptedIf]="{ fieldKey: 'subscriptionTier', value: 'pro' }"
/>

Error key​

{ acceptedIf: true }

Notes​

  • The accepted set matches Laravel exactly: true, 'true', 1, '1', 'yes', 'on'. Case-sensitive.
  • When the trigger value is omitted, any truthy sibling value triggers the rule.
  • When the control has no parent form group the rule never triggers and any value passes.
