form-mechanics v0.1.9

Form stuff

Layered approach

Input component layer

• props that an input component must implement to work with the system
• two static methods: validate and isEmpty
• actual UI components are out of scope for this repo

exports:

• inputProps(raw, clean, inputProps) -> proptypes

Context layer

• decorators for injecting stuff out of context where needed

exports:

• `

State layer

• vanilla component state, mobx-state-tree, or redux adapters that work with the lower-level APIs to move data around

MST exports (at form-mechanics/dist/mst)

• formModel

Data formats

Input values

  { state: VALID, cleanValue: T }
| { state: INVALID, reason: string }
| { state: VALIDATING }

Form values

raw: { fieldName: rawType }  // always available, useful for serialization
clean: { state: VALID, cleanVaue: { field: cleanType } }
     | { state: INVALID, reason: { field: string } }
     | { state: VALIDATING }
