Qwizard React

React bindings for Qwizard Core

Usage

From this library, you will use two main parts of the API:

The FormConfig object to build your configs
The Form component to render your form

Using `FormConfig`

This is a helper object to create FormGroupConfigs, FormArrayConfigs, and FormControlConfigs.

To learn more about using the form config types, see Form Config API

import { 
  FormConfig,
  FormControlConfig,
  FormGroupConfig ,
  FormArrayConfig
} from "@doughtnerd/qwizard-react";

const formControl: FormControlConfig = FormConfig.Control('')
const formGroup: FormGroupConfig = FormConfig.Group({})
const formArray: FormArrayConfig = FormConfig.Array([])

Using `Form` Component

In order for your configs to be useful, you need to use the Form component to render your form.

To learn more about how the component works, see Form API

import { 
  Form,
  FormConfig,
  FormControlConfig,
  FormGroupConfig,
  FormArrayConfig
} from "@doughtnerd/qwizard-react";


function ExampleForm(): JSX.Element {
  const formControl: FormControlConfig = FormConfig.Control('')

  // The config prop will accept any form config type from this library
  return <Form config={formControl} />
}

API

Form Configs

`FormControlConfig`

This represents a single input on a form, like "First Name" or "State"

import { 
  Form,
  FormConfig,
  FormControlConfig
} from "@doughtnerd/qwizard-react";


const formControl: FormControlConfig = FormConfig.Control('', {
  /**
   * Use renderComponent to specify the component to use to render the input. 
   * You can use any Functional Component here.
   */ 
  renderComponent: MyInput // From MyInput.tsx
  // This is the data used during render
  renderData: {
    /**
     * If you have static props you want to supply to the component, 
     * set them here. They will be passed to your component.
     */ 
    inputProps: {
      id: 'example-input',
      type: 'text'
    },
    // Specify when to run validations. Defaults to blur
    validateOn: 'input',
    // Whether or not to use native HTML spec form validation. Defaults to false.
    enableNativeValidation: false,
    // What to do after the component validates. You shouldn't need to use this.
    onValidated
  }
}, 
  [Validators.notEmpty], // Sync validators go here 
  [] // Async validators go here
)

`FormGroupConfig`

This represents a grouping of controls on your form.

import { 
  Form,
  FormConfig,
  FormControlConfig,
  FormGroupConfig
} from "@doughtnerd/qwizard-react";


const formControl: FormGroupConfig = FormConfig.Group({
  password: FormConfig.Control(''),
  confirmPassword: FormConfig.Control('')
}, {
  /**
   * Use renderComponent to specify the component to use to render your FormGroupConfig. Optional
   */ 
  renderComponent: ({children, errors}) => {
    return children
  } 
  // This is the data used during render
  renderData: {
    /**
     * You can specify a component to use for all form controls in the group.
     */
    componentTemplate: MyInput
    /**
     * If using componentTemplate, this function allows you
     * to dynamically get props for each component
     */
    propsTemplate: (controlName: string) => {
      return {
        id: controlName
      }
    },
    // Specify when to run validations on children. Defaults to blur.
    validateOn: 'input',
    // If the FormGroupConfig should wait until all child forms validate before validating iteself.
    childrenFirst: false,
    // What to do after the component validates. You shouldn't need to use this.
    onValidated
  }
}, 
  [], // Sync validators for the group go here 
  [] // Async validators for the group go here
)

`FormArrayConfig`

This represents a grouping of controls on your form.

import { 
  Form,
  FormConfig,
  FormControlConfig,
  FormArrayConfig
} from "@doughtnerd/qwizard-react";


const formControl: FormArrayConfig = FormConfig.Array([
  FormConfig.Control('')
], {
  /**
   * Use renderComponent to specify the component to use to render your FormArrayConfig. Optional
   */ 
  renderComponent: ({children, errors}) => {
    return children
  } 
  // This is the data used during render
  renderData: {
    /**
     * You can specify a component to use for all form controls in the array.
     */
    componentTemplate: MyInput
    /**
     * If using componentTemplate, this function allows you
     * to dynamically get props for each component
     */
    propsTemplate: (index: number) => {
      return {
        id: `example-input-${index}`
      }
    },
    // Specify when to run validations on children. Defaults to blur.
    validateOn: 'input',
    // If the FormArrayConfig should wait until all child forms validate before validating iteself.
    childrenFirst: false,
    // What to do after the component validates. You shouldn't need to use this.
    onValidated
  }
}, 
  [], // Sync validators for the array go here 
  [] // Async validators for the array go here
)

Form Component

This component will render your entire form.

<Form 
  // Your form config goes here
  config={config} 
  // Any props you want to supply to the `form` element go here
  formProps={{style: {display: 'flex'}}}
  // Callback for after the form has validated
  onValidate={
    (results: ValidationResults) => {
      console.log("I've Validated!", results)
    }
  }
  // Callback for when the user submits the form. Prevents default behavior
  onSubmit={
    (event: CustomEvent) => {
      console.log("I'm Submitting!", event.detail)
    }
  }
  // If you'd rather use a function to render the form content (like if you want to reposition the form)
  renderFormContent={
    (childElement: React.ReactNode) => {
      return (
        <>
          <h1>My Cool Form!</h1>
          {childElement}
          <button type="submit">Submit</button>
        </>
      )
    }
  }
  // You can also supply children. They default to rendering below the form
  children={<button type="submit">Submit</button>}
/>
