Schema

The JSON schema for this form component has a single type that can repeat itself.

export type InputType =
  | "string"
  | "email"
  | "password"
  | "search"
  | "url"
  | "number"
  | "boolean"
  | "array"
  | "object"
  | "date"
  | "submit";

export interface FormSchema {
  type: InputType;
  title: string;
  subtitle?: string;
  properties: {
    [key: string]: FormSchema;
  };
  items?: FormSchema;
}

These types may be updated and will be marked as a breaking change if done so.

Schema example:

{
  "type": "object",

      "title": "Name",
      "subtitle": "Alphanumeric characters only!!!!"
    },
    "email": {
      "type": "string",
      "title": "Email",
      "subtitle": "Don't worry, we'll spam you every day!"
    },
    "password": {
      "type": "password",
      "title": "Password",
      "subtitle": "We didn't invest much into security, choose wisely."
    },
    "personalInfo": {
      "type": "object",
      "title": "Personal Info",
      "properties": {
        "age": {
          "type": "number",
          "title": "Age",
          "subtitle": "How old are you?"
        },
        "birthday": {
          "type": "date",
          "title": "Birthday",
          "subtitle": "So we can send you a cake, duh."
        },
        "misc": {
          "type": "object",
          "title": "Misc. Stuff",
          "properties": {
            "isScary": {
              "type": "boolean",
              "title": "Sus?",
              "subtitle": "Are you known by the FBI, CIA, or any governmental body?"
            }
          }
        },
        "acceptsTerms": {
          "type": "boolean",
          "title": "Accept Terms of Service",
          "subtitle": "We're not responsible for your actions."
        }
      }
    },
    "submit": {
      "type": "submit",
      "title": "Submit"
    }
  }
}

Input names are tokenized and have a . delimiter, so they can be used with HTML forms with ease.
