I am trying to register a custom component and cannot find where formiojs/full resides?
I have done a clean angular 6 ng new install and added the formios

npm i angular-formio --save
npm i angularjs --save

import { FormioForm } from 'formiojs/full';

I cannot find it.

@dslshweta did you found the solution? Can you suggest me?

@travist Hi, I have a question, In CheckMatrix.ts file, does the build() function build the html code? if I want to write html template code, how to do it?

Hi,
Trying to create and register custom component here with help this gist

Registering like:
FormioForm.registerComponent('checkmatrix', CheckMatrix);

In Angular Form io:
But FormioForm doesn't have registerComponent method or might be import statement wrong
import { FormioForm } from 'angular-formio';

Let me know how to handle this?

Thanks.

@travist
I cannot seem to get this gist working.

I have installed the latest formiojs from npm.

The line below does not seem to exist anywhere. it is not in "formiojs": "^3.5.3".

import { FormioForm } from 'formiojs/full';

So following recommendations from @Aiso786
I added the following file:

// src/app/typings/index.d.ts
declare module 'formiojs'

Defined path to above file in tsconfig.json

"typeRoots": [
      "node_modules/@types",
      "./src/app/typings/index"
    ],

My error went away.
Now while debugging I see my component added to Formio.Components._components but when rendering the form I get
Unknown component: mycustomcomponent

The issue seems to be angular-formio is using it's own "internal" formiojs ./angular-formio/node_modules/formiojs which is a separate instance from ./myapplicationroot/node_modules/formiojs which I am registering my custom components with.
When trying to use this internal formiojs I get:

core.js:1598 ERROR Error: Uncaught (in promise): TypeError: comp.build is not a function

webpack:///./node_modules/angular-formio/node_modules/formiojs/components/Components.js

Where have I gone wrong here?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I just updated this gist to now be correct with the latest renderer.

@travist, i want to have a custom component in react using react-formio, how can i do that.
Please help me out.

In the older version of angular-formio(1.18.0) we registered the custom components using Formio.registerComponent() method and it was working perfectly.
Recently we have upgraded our application with latest version of angular-formio (3.9.0) and formiojs version as 2.32.3 after this up-gradation our custom components are not working it is showing error message as "unknown component : mycustomcomponent". Please help.

I'm using successfully custom component in angular6 like described. But i would like to use my custom component on formbuilder edit modal too (technically in Base.edit.logic.js).
Can we do it?

any html code for rendering formio custom component..
I have to render custom formio select drop down component in to my application.For that i created one js file like Select.js and i had taken the Select.js code from https://formio.github.io/formio.js/docs/class/src/components/select/Select.js~SelectComponent.html
and also i registered that component into my custom_formio.component.ts as
Formio.registerComponent('custom_formio', SelectComponent);
