Installation

1. Install library dependency

npm install react-decorate-form

2. Allow experimental decorators configuration in your tsconfig.json. This removes IDE errors which could pop-up

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "experimentalDecorators": true,
    "emitDecoratorMetadata": true,
    /* ... */
  }
}

3. Add babel configuration to your tsconfig.json. This allows for type-safety checking

{
  plugins: [
    "babel-plugin-transform-typescript-metadata",
    ["@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators", { legacy: true }],
    ["@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties", { loose: true }],
  ],
  presets: ["@babel/preset-typescript"],
}

Examples

A basic TypeScript form can look something like

import { validators } from 'react-decorate-form';

export type UserFormFields = {
  confirmPassword: string;
  firstName: string;
  lastName: string;
  password: string;
  url: string;
  age: number;
};

export default class UserForm implements UserFormFields {
  @validators.string.Size({ min: 5 })
  @validators.string.NotEmpty()
  firstName!: string;

  @validators.string.NotEmpty()
  lastName!: string;

  @validators.string.NotEmpty()
  @validators.string.Password()
  password!: string;

  confirmPassword!: string;

  @validators.string.URL()
  url!: string;

  @validators.number.Range({ min: 18, max: 100 })
  age!: number;

  @validators.boolean.AssertTrue('Passwords must match')
  get passwordsMatch(): boolean {
    return this.password === this.confirmPassword;
  }
}

And with some styling we can display the form which can look something like:
