Example

Here’s an example React form with validation for phone numbers, postal codes, and national IDs:

import React, { useState } from 'react';
import { phoneValidator, postalCodeValidator, nationalIdValidator} from 'global-form-validator';

const FormComponent = () => {
  const [phone, setPhone] = useState('');
  const [postalCode, setPostalCode] = useState('');
  const [nationalId, setNationalId] = useState('');

  const [phoneValid, setPhoneValid] = useState(false);
  const [postalCodeValid, setPostalCodeValid] = useState(false);
  const [nationalIdValid, setNationalIdValid] = useState(false);

  const handlePhoneChange = (event) => {
    setPhone(event.target.value);
    setPhoneValid(phoneValidator('usa', event.target.value));  // Validate USA phone number
  };

  const handlePostalCodeChange = (event) => {
    setPostalCode(event.target.value);
    setPostalCodeValid(postalCodeValidator('usa', event.target.value));  // Validate USA postal code
  };

  const handleNationalIdChange = (event) => {
    setNationalId(event.target.value);
    setNationalIdValid(nationalIdValidator('iran', event.target.value));  // Validate Iranian national ID
  };

  return (
    <div>
      <h2>Validation Form</h2>

      {/* Phone Number */}
      <div>
        <label>Phone Number (USA):</label>
        <input type="text" value={phone} onChange={handlePhoneChange} />
        <p>{phoneValid ? 'Valid Phone Number' : 'Invalid Phone Number'}</p>
      </div>

      {/* Postal Code */}
      <div>
        <label>Postal Code (USA):</label>
        <input type="text" value={postalCode} onChange={handlePostalCodeChange} />
        <p>{postalCodeValid ? 'Valid Postal Code' : 'Invalid Postal Code'}</p>
      </div>

      {/* National ID */}
      <div>
        <label>National ID (Iran):</label>
        <input type="text" value={nationalId} onChange={handleNationalIdChange} />
        <p>{nationalIdValid ? 'Valid National ID' : 'Invalid National ID'}</p>
