esma-form v0.0.15

Esma Form

esma-form is a library for creating forms in Vue. The library allows you to create anything from simple forms to complex forms with conditional inputs and dynamic validations.

Installation

Install the library using npm:

npm i esma-form

Basic Usage

Import style and component in main.js file

import '../node_modules/esma-form/dist/style.css'

import TheForm from '../node_modules/esma-form/dist/esma-form.mjs'

app.use(TheForm)

Then inside the component/page

<TheForm :form-data="formData" :form-rules="formRules"/>

You need to pass a JSON object to configure the form inputs. Here is an example of a basic input configuration:

dataInput: [
  {
    type: 'text',
    name: 'text',
    value: '',
    title: 'Text',
    placeholder: 'placeholder',
    notice: 'notice',
    class: 'group',
    show: true,
  },
]

Input Configuration

• type: The type of input (e.g., text, checkbox, select).
• name: The name attribute of the input.
• title: The label for the input.
• placeholder: The placeholder text for the input.
• notice: A note that will appear below the input.
• class: Optional CSS class for the input.
• show: Determines whether the input is displayed. Useful for conditional inputs.

Form Submission

To handle form submission, you can trigger the sendData function which will pass the populated v-model by default.

<template>
  <TheForm @sendData="sendData" />
</template>

<script>
export default {
  methods: {
    sendData(data) {
      console.log(data);
    }
  }
}
</script>

# vue 3 

<script setup>
const sendData = (data) => {
    console.log(data)
}
</script>

Conditional Inputs

Checkbox Example

Conditional input configuration requires an activeValue that matches the name of the controlling input.

{
  type: 'checkbox',
  name: 'checkbox',
  value: 'test',
  class: 'checkbox',
  title: 'Checkbox',
  placeholder: 'placeholder',
  show: true,
}

Conditional input based on checkbox being checked:

{
  type: 'text',
  name: 'text2',
  value: '',
  title: 'Text2',
  placeholder: 'placeholder2',
  notice: 'notice2',
  class: 'group',
  activeValue: 'checkbox',
  show: false,
}

Radio or Select Example

{
  type: 'select',
  label: 'Select',
  name: 'select',
  activator: 'selectaltro',
  class: 'check',
  show: true,
  options: [
    {
      value: 'uno'
    },
    {
      value: 'due'
    },
    {
      value: 'selectaltro'
    },
  ]
}

Conditional input based on select option:

{
  type: 'text',
  name: 'text6',
  value: '',
  title: 'Text6',
  placeholder: 'placeholder9',
  notice: 'notice9',
  class: 'group',
  activeValue: 'selectaltro',
  show: false,
}

Validation Management

Validation is based on Vuelidate and is fully integrated.

To enable validation, create a validation object where the key matches the name of the input. For example:

{
  type: 'file',
  name: 'file',
  label: 'Scegli file',
  id: 'id',
  show: true,
}

Validation configuration:

file: { required },

Remember to add in your page/component the validation that you need to use

import {required, helpers, minLength} from '@vuelidate/validators'

For all validation rules, both conditional and general, refer to the Vuelidate documentation:

Example Usage

Here is an example of how to use esma-form in your Vue component:

<template>
  <div>
    <TheForm :formData="formInputs" :formRules="formRules" @sendData="handleFormSubmit" />
  </div>
</template>

<script>
import { required } from '@vuelidate/validators';

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      formRules = {
         text: {
            required: helpers.withMessage('Valore obbligatorio', required),
            minLength: helpers.withMessage('Minimo 4 caratteri', minLength(4))
         },
         // email: {required, email},
         password: {required},
         radio: {required},
         checkbox: {required},
         select: {required},
         file: {required},

         checkbox2: {required},
         text6: {
            required: requiredIf(() => childModel.value.select === 'selectaltro'),
         }
      }
      dataInput: [
         {
            type: 'text',
            name: 'text',
            value: '',
            title: 'Text',
            placeholder: 'placeholder',
            notice: 'notice',
            class: "group",
            show: true,
         },
         {
            type: 'email',
            name: 'email',
            value: '',
            title: 'Email',
            placeholder: 'placeholder@email.com',
            notice: 'notice',
            class: 'group',
            show: true,
