Angular Slide Toggle is always enabled with formControlName attribute-CodePudding

I am trying to use mat slide toggle compoment from Angular Material but, when I try to initialize the slider with a default value with the [checked] attribute, no matter what is in this field the slider is always checked.

<mat-slide-toggle color="primary" [checked]="false" formControlName="{{input.id}}"></mat-slide-toggle>

Any idea ?

Thanks in advance,

Nicolas

Initialize on the form during initialization or go for patchValue instead of using checked.

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { FormBuilder, FormGroup, Validators } from '@angular/forms';

/**
 * @title Basic slide-toggles
 */
@Component({
  selector: 'slide-toggle-overview-example',
  templateUrl: 'slide-toggle-overview-example.html',
  styleUrls: ['slide-toggle-overview-example.css'],
})
export class SlideToggleOverviewExample {
  isChecked = true;
  formGroup: FormGroup;

  constructor(formBuilder: FormBuilder) {
    this.formGroup = formBuilder.group({
      enableWifi: [true], // <- initialized here
      acceptTerms: [false, Validators.requiredTrue],
    });
    // alternative way -> patchValue ; after the form is initialized and you want to set the values of the slider, you can use patchvalue like so
    this.formGroup.patchValue({enableWifi: true,acceptTerms: false});
  }

  onFormSubmit(formValue: any) {
    alert(JSON.stringify(formValue, null, 2));
  }
}

html

<form  [formGroup]="formGroup" (ngSubmit)="onFormSubmit(formGroup.value)" ngNativeValidate>

  <mat-slide-toggle formControlName="enableWifi">Enable Wifi</mat-slide-toggle>
  <mat-slide-toggle formControlName="acceptTerms">Accept Terms of Service</mat-slide-toggle>

  <p>Form Group Status: {{ formGroup.status}}</p>

  <button mat-rasied-button type="submit">Save Settings</button>
</form>
