Angular2 template driven async validator : <p>I have a problem with defining asynchrous validator in template driven form.</p>

<p>Currently i have this input:</p>

<pre><code>&lt;input type="text" ngControl="email"  [(ngModel)]="model.applicant.contact.email" #email="ngForm" required asyncEmailValidator&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>with validator selector <strong>asyncEmailValidator</strong> which is pointing to this class:</p>

<pre><code>import {provide} from "angular2/core";
import {Directive} from "angular2/core";
import {NG_VALIDATORS} from "angular2/common";
import {Validator} from "angular2/common";
import {Control} from "angular2/common";
import {AccountService} from "../services/account.service";

@Directive({
selector: '[asyncEmailValidator]',
providers: [provide(NG_VALIDATORS, {useExisting: EmailValidator, multi: true}), AccountService]
})

export class EmailValidator implements Validator {
//https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/api/common/Validator-interface.html


constructor(private accountService:AccountService) {
}

validate(c:Control):{[key: string]: any} {
    let EMAIL_REGEXP = /^[-a-z0-9~!$%^&amp;*_=+}{\'?]+(\.[-a-z0-9~!$%^&amp;*_=+}{\'?]+)*@([a-z0-9_][-a-z0-9_]*(\.[-a-z0-9_]+)*\.(aero|arpa|biz|com|coop|edu|gov|info|int|mil|museum|name|net|org|pro|travel|mobi|[a-z][a-z])|([0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}))(:[0-9]{1,5})?$/i;

    if (!EMAIL_REGEXP.test(c.value)) {
        return {validateEmail: {valid: false}};
    }

    return null;

    /*return new Promise(resolve =&gt;
        this.accountService.getUserNames(c.value).subscribe(res =&gt; {
            if (res == true) {
                resolve(null);
            }
            else {
                resolve({validateEmailTaken: {valid: false}});
            }
        }));*/
}
</code></pre>

<p>}</p>

<p>Email regex part is working as expected and form is being validated successfuly if regex is matching. But after that I want to check if e-mail is not already in use, so im creating promise for my accountService. But this doesn't work at all and form is in failed state all the time. </p>

<p>I've read about model driven forms and using FormBuilder as below:</p>

<pre><code>constructor(builder: FormBuilder) {
this.email = new Control('',
  Validators.compose([Validators.required, CustomValidators.emailFormat]), CustomValidators.duplicated
);
}
</code></pre>

<p>Which have async validators defined in third parameter of <strong>Control()</strong> But this is not my case because im using diffrent approach.</p>

<p>So, my question is: is it possible to create async validator using template driven forms?</p>
