## Details
### Handling events
**app.component.html**
```html
<adf-login
providers="ALL"
(success)="mySuccessMethod($event)"
(error)="myErrorMethod($event)">
</adf-login>
```
**app.component.ts**
```ts
export class AppComponent {
mySuccessMethod($event) {
console.log('Success Login EventEmitt called with: ' + $event.value);
}
myErrorMethod($event) {
console.log('Error Login EventEmitt called with: ' + $event.value);
}
}
```
### Change footer content
![Login with custom footer](docassets/images/custom-footer.png)
You can replace the entire content in the footer of the login component with your custom content.
```html
<adf-login ...>
<login-footer><ng-template>My custom HTML for the footer</ng-template></login-footer>
</adf-login>`
```
### Change header content
![Login with custom header](docassets/images/custom-header.png)
You can replace the entire content in the header of the login component with your custom content.
```html
<adf-login ...>
<login-header><ng-template>My custom HTML for the header</ng-template></login-header>
</adf-login>`
```
### Extra content
You can put additional html content between `alfresco-login` tags to get it rendered as part of the login dialog.
This becomes handy in case you need to extend it with custom input fields handled by your application or parent component:
```html
<adf-login ...>
<div>
<div>Your extra content</div>
</div>
</adf-login>
```
Here's an example of custom content:
![Login with custom content](docassets/images/login-extra-content.png)
### Custom logo and background
It is possible changing logo and background images to custom values.
```html
<adf-login
[backgroundImageUrl]="'http://images.freeimages.com/images/previews/638/wood-wall-for-background-1634466.jpg'"
[logoImageUrl]="'http://images.freeimages.com/images/previews/eac/honeybee-with-a-house-1633609.jpg'">
</adf-login>
```
Should give you something like the following:
![Login with custom logo and background](docassets/images/custom-login.png)
Alternatively you can bind to your component properties and provide values dynamically if needed:
```html
<adf-login
[backgroundImageUrl]="myCustomBackground"
[logoImageUrl]="myCustomLogo">
</adf-login>
```
### Customize Validation rules
If needed it is possible to customise the validation rules of the login
form. You can add/modify the default rules of the login form.
**MyCustomLogin.component.html**
```html
<adf-login
[fieldsValidation]="customValidation"
#alfrescologin>
</adf-login>
```
**MyCustomLogin.component.ts**
```ts
export class MyCustomLogin {
@ViewChild('alfrescologin')
alfrescologin: any;
customValidation: any;
constructor(public router: Router) {
this.customValidation = {
username: ['', Validators.compose([Validators.required, Validators.minLength(8), Validators.maxLength(10)])],
password: ['', Validators.required]
};
}
ngOnInit() {
this.alfrescologin.addCustomValidationError('username', 'minlength', 'Username must be at least 8 characters.');
this.alfrescologin.addCustomValidationError('username', 'maxlength', 'Username must not be longer than 11 characters.');
}
}
```
### Controlling form submit execution behaviour
If absolutely needed it is possible taking full control over form
submit execution by means of `executeSubmit` event.
This event is fired on form submit.
You can prevent default behaviour by calling `event.preventDefault()`.
This allows for example having custom form validation scenarios and/or additional validation summary presentation.
Alternatively you may want just running additional code without suppressing default one.
**MyCustomLogin.component.html**
```html
<adf-login
(executeSubmit)="validateForm($event)"
#alfrescologin>
</adf-login>
```
**MyCustomLogin.component.ts**
```ts
export class MyCustomLogin {
validateForm(event: any) {
let values = event.values;
// check if the username is in the blacklist
if (values.controls['username'].value === 'invalidUsername') {
this.alfrescologin.addCustomFormError('username', 'the
username is in blacklist');
event.preventDefault();
}
}
}
```
**Please note that if `event.preventDefault()` is not called then default behaviour
will also be executed after your custom code.**
