<Formsy.Form className="my-class"></Formsy.Form>Sets a class name on the form itself.
var MyForm = React.createClass({
mapInputs: function (inputs) {
return {
'field1': inputs.foo,
'field2': inputs.bar
};
},
submit: function (model) {
model; // {field1: '', field2: ''}
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form onSubmit={this.submit} mapping={this.mapInputs}>
<MyInput name="foo" value=""/>
<MyInput name="bar" value=""/>
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
})Use mapping to change the data structure of your input elements. This structure is passed to the submit hooks.
You can manually pass down errors to your form. In combination with onChange you are able to validate using an external validator.
var Form = React.createClass({
getInitialState: function () {
return {
validationErrors: {}
};
},
validateForm: function (values) {
if (!values.foo) {
this.setState({
validationErrors: {
foo: 'Has no value'
}
});
} else {
this.setState({
validationErrors: {}
});
}
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form onChange={this.validateForm} validationErrors={this.state.validationErrors}>
<MyFormElement name="foo"/>
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});<Formsy.Form onSubmit={this.showFormLoader}></Formsy.Form>Takes a function to run when the submit button has been clicked.
The first argument is the data of the form. The second argument will reset the form. The third argument will invalidate the form by taking an object that maps to inputs. This is useful for server side validation. E.g. {email: "This email is taken"}. Resetting or invalidating the form will cause setState to run on the form element component.
<Formsy.Form onValid={this.enableSubmitButton}></Formsy.Form>Whenever the form becomes valid the "onValid" handler is called. Use it to change state of buttons or whatever your heart desires.
<Formsy.Form onInvalid={this.disableSubmitButton}></Formsy.Form>Whenever the form becomes invalid the "onInvalid" handler is called. Use it to for example revert "onValid" state.
<Formsy.Form onValidSubmit={this.sendToServer}></Formsy.Form>Triggers when form is submitted with a valid state. The arguments are the same as on onSubmit.
<Formsy.Form onInvalidSubmit={this.notifyFormError}></Formsy.Form>Triggers when form is submitted with an invalid state. The arguments are the same as on onSubmit.
<Formsy.Form onChange={this.saveCurrentValuesToLocalStorage}></Formsy.Form>"onChange" triggers when setValue is called on your form elements. It is also triggered when dynamic form elements have been added to the form. The "currentValues" is an object where the key is the name of the input and the value is the current value. The second argument states if the forms initial values actually has changed.
var MyForm = React.createClass({
resetForm: function () {
this.refs.form.reset();
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form ref="form">
...
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});Manually reset the form to its pristine state. You can also pass an object that inserts new values into the inputs. Keys are name of input and value is of course the value.
var MyForm = React.createClass({
getMyData: function () {
alert(this.refs.form.getModel());
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form ref="form">
...
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});Manually get values from all registered components. Keys are name of input and value is of course the value.
var MyForm = React.createClass({
someFunction: function () {
this.refs.form.updateInputsWithError({
email: 'This email is taken',
'field[10]': 'Some error!'
});
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form ref="form">
...
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});Manually invalidate the form by taking an object that maps to inputs. This is useful for server side validation. You can also use a third parameter to the onSubmit, onValidSubmit or onInvalidSubmit.
var MyForm = React.createClass({
onSubmit: function (model, reset, invalidate) {
invalidate({
foo: 'Got some error'
});
},
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form onSubmit={this.onSubmit} preventExternalInvalidation>
...
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});With the preventExternalInvalidation the input will not be invalidated though it has an error.
<MyInputComponent name="email"/>
<MyInputComponent name="address.street"/>The name is required to register the form input component in the form. You can also use dot notation. This will result in the "form model" being a nested object. {email: 'value', address: {street: 'value'}}.
<MyInputComponent name="email" value="My initial value"/>You should always use the getValue() method inside your formsy form element. To pass an initial value, use the value attribute. This value will become the "pristine" value and any reset of the form will bring back this value.
<MyInputComponent name="email" validations="isEmail"/>
<MyInputComponent name="number" validations="isNumeric,isLength:5"/>
<MyInputComponent name="number" validations={{
isNumeric: true,
isLength: 5
}}/>
<MyInputComponent name="number" validations={{
myCustomIsFiveValidation: function (values, value) {
values; // Other current values in form {foo: 'bar', 'number': 5}
value; // 5
return 5 === value ? true : 'No five'; // You can return an error
}
}}/>A comma separated list with validation rules. Take a look at Validators to see default rules. Use ":" to separate argument passed to the validator. The argument will go through a JSON.parse converting them into correct JavaScript types. Meaning:
<MyInputComponent name="fruit" validations="isIn:['apple', 'orange']"/>
<MyInputComponent name="car" validations="mapsTo:{'bmw': true, 'vw': true}"/>Works just fine.
<MyInputComponent name="email" validations="isEmail" validationError="This is not an email"/>The message that will show when the form input component is invalid. It will be used as a default error.
<MyInputComponent
name="email"
validations={{
isEmail: true,
maxLength: 50
}}
validationErrors={{
isEmail: 'You have to type valid email',
maxLength: 'You can not type in more than 50 characters'
}}
/>The message that will show when the form input component is invalid. You can combine this with validationError. Keys not found in validationErrors defaults to the general error message.
<MyInputComponent name="email" validations="isEmail" validationError="This is not an email" required/>A property that tells the form that the form input component value is required. By default it uses isDefaultRequiredValue, but you can define your own definition of what defined a required state.
<MyInputComponent name="email" required="isFalse"/>Would be typical for a checkbox type of form element that must be checked, e.g. agreeing to Terms of Service.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
render: function () {
return (
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
);
}
});Gets the current value of the form input component.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
return (
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
);
}
});Sets the value of your form input component. Notice that it does not have to be a text input. Anything can set a value on the component. Think calendars, checkboxes, autocomplete stuff etc. Running this method will trigger a setState() on the component and do a render.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<button onClick={this.resetValue()}>Reset</button>
</div>
);
}
});Resets to empty value. This will run a setState() on the component and do a render.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.getErrorMessage()}</span>
</div>
);
}
});Will return the validation message set if the form input component is invalid. If form input component is valid it returns null.
Will return the validation messages set if the form input component is invalid. If form input component is valid it returns empty array.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
var face = this.isValid() ? ':-)' : ':-(';
return (
<div>
<span>{face}</span>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.getErrorMessage()}</span>
</div>
);
}
});Returns the valid state of the form input component.
You can pre-verify a value against the passed validators to the form element.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
if (this.isValidValue(event.target.value)) {
this.setValue(event.target.value);
}
},
render: function () {
return <input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>;
}
});
var MyForm = React.createClass({
render: function () {
return (
<Formsy.Form>
<MyInput name="foo" validations="isEmail"/>
</Formsy.Form>
);
}
});var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<span>{this.props.label} {this.isRequired() ? '*' : null}</span>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.getErrorMessage()}</span>
</div>
);
}
});Returns true if the required property has been passed.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
var className = this.showRequired() ? 'required' : '';
return (
<div className={className}>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.getErrorMessage()}</span>
</div>
);
}
});Lets you check if the form input component should indicate if it is a required field. This happens when the form input component value is empty and the required prop has been passed.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
var className = this.showRequired() ? 'required' : this.showError() ? 'error' : '';
return (
<div className={className}>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.getErrorMessage()}</span>
</div>
);
}
});Lets you check if the form input component should indicate if there is an error. This happens if there is a form input component value and it is invalid or if a server error is received.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.currentTarget.value);
},
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input type="text" onChange={this.changeValue} value={this.getValue()}/>
<span>{this.isPristine() ? 'You have not touched this yet' : ''}</span>
</div>
);
}
});By default all formsy input elements are pristine, which means they are not "touched". As soon as the setValue method is run it will no longer be pristine.
note! When the form is reset, using the resetForm callback function on for example onSubmit the inputs are reset to their pristine state.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input type="text" value={this.getValue()} disabled={this.isFormDisabled()}/>
</div>
);
}
});
React.render(<Formy.Form disabled={true}/>);You can now disable the form itself with a prop and use isFormDisabled() inside form elements to verify this prop.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
render: function () {
var error = this.isFormSubmitted() ? this.getErrorMessage() : null;
return (
<div>
<input type="text" value={this.getValue()}/>
{error}
</div>
);
}
});You can check if the form has been submitted.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
changeValue: function (event) {
this.setValue(event.target.value);
},
validate: function () {
return !!this.getValue();
},
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input type="text" value={this.getValue()} onChange={this.changeValue}/>
</div>
);
}
});
React.render(<Formy.Form disabled={true}/>);You can create custom validation inside a form element. The validate method defined will be run when you set new values to the form element. It will also be run when the form validates itself. This is an alternative to passing in validation rules as props.
To avoid native validation behavior on inputs, use the React formNoValidate property.
var MyInput = React.createClass({
mixins: [Formsy.Mixin],
render: function () {
return (
<div>
<input formNoValidate type="number"/>
</div>
);
}
});The same methods as the mixin are exposed to the HOC version of the element component, though through the props, not on the instance.
import {HOC} from 'formsy-react';
class MyInput extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<input value={this.props.getValue()} onChange={(e) => this.props.setValue(e.target.value)}/>
</div>
);
}
};
export default HOC(MyInput);The same methods as the mixin are exposed to the decorator version of the element component, though through the props, not on the instance.
import {Decorator as FormsyElement} from 'formsy-react';
@FormsyElement()
class MyInput extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<input value={this.props.getValue()} onChange={(e) => this.props.setValue(e.target.value)}/>
</div>
);
}
};
export default MyInputAn example:
Formsy.addValidationRule('isFruit', function (values, value) {
return ['apple', 'orange', 'pear'].indexOf(value) >= 0;
});<MyInputComponent name="fruit" validations="'isFruit"/>Another example:
Formsy.addValidationRule('isIn', function (values, value, array) {
return array.indexOf(value) >= 0;
});<MyInputComponent name="fruit" validations="isIn:['apple', 'orange', 'pear']"/>Cross input validation:
Formsy.addValidationRule('isMoreThan', function (values, value, otherField) {
// The this context points to an object containing the values
// {childAge: "", parentAge: "5"}
// otherField argument is from the validations rule ("childAge")
return Number(value) > Number(values[otherField]);
});<MyInputComponent name="childAge"/>
