    <div class="modal-dialog">
      <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
       <h4 class="modal-title" id="myModalLabel">Add new Node</h4>
     </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
       <div class="modal-body">
           <form role="form" id="addNodeForm">

               <input type="text" name="nodename" class="form-control" id="nodename" required>
             </div>
   
           </form>
      </div>
     <!--  <div class="alert alert-success">

           $('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function(){
               $(this).removeData('bs.modal');
               $('#nodename').val("");
               $('#addNodeForm').bootstrapValidator('resetForm', true);
           });
   
           $('#myModal').on('show.bs.modal', function () {
                // $('#addNodeForm').bootstrapValidator('resetForm', true);
               $(this).removeData('bs.modal');
               $('#addNodeForm').bootstrapValidator('resetForm', true);
                 $.ajax(
                        {
                            url: "node/getnodelist",
                            type: "GET",
                            success:function(text) 
                            {
                                alert(text);
                               nodelist = text;
                            },
                            error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) 
                            {
                                //if fails      
                            }
                        });
               });
   
           $('#addNodeForm').bootstrapValidator({

                   validating: 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
               },
               fields: {
                   nodename: {
                       validators: {
                           notEmpty: {
                               message: 'Function name is required'
                           }
                       }
                   }
               }
           });
   

Answer 1

The hidden.bs.modal event is fired when the modal has finished being hidden from the user, So the form will be hidden And BoostarpValidator doesn't treat or validate by default the hidden fields.

So in order to reset your form when the modal being hidden, you should add:

excluded: ':disabled'

to your JS code.

Live example: http://jsfiddle.net/Arkni/ndpv76bk/

Reference:

• excluded docs : http://bootstrapvalidator.com/settings/#form-excluded

EDIT

Your initialization of bootstrapValidator on your form should be like the following after adding the excluded option:

    $('#addNodeForm').bootstrapValidator({
        feedbackIcons: {
            valid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok',
            invalid: 'glyphicon glyphicon-remove',
            validating: 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
        },
        excluded: ':disabled',   // <=== Adding the 'excluded' option
        fields: {
            nodename: {
                validators: {
                    notEmpty: {
                        message: 'Function name is required'
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    });
