Components

Form

The top provider of form.

• model: instance of Model, required
• component: ReactComponent or false, default is form, when false it will not wrap with any component
• other props will be passed into the given component

<Form model={model}>
...
</Form>

FormItem

A component to render a row.

• model?: can be inherited from Form
• name: which field to use
• label?: label to display, will override label of meta
• render?: function, if passed it will be used to render the field area
• component?: which component used to render
• className

<Form model={model}>
  <FormItem name="name" />
</Form>

If the name meta has a property component, it can be used as component prop.

label

FormItem will use label of field meta as default, you can pass custom label to replace:

class Some extends Meta {
  static label = 'default label'
}

<FormItem name="some" label="custom label" />

component

FormItem will use component of field meta as default, you can pass custom component to replace:

class Some extends Meta {
  static component = 'input'
}

<FormItem name="some" component={Input} />

It receive an array to define default props of the component:

<FormItem name="some" component={[Input, { onChange }]} />

render

Use a render function to generate custom layout:

<FormItem name="some" render={(info) => {
  return <input value={info.value} onChange={info.onChange} />
}} />

Know more about info in Field.

FormField

A component to render a field. In some cases, you do want to render the field input alone, you can use this component.

• model?
• name
• component?
• render?
• decorate?: a function to generate output by default content

<Form model={model}>
  <div>
    Student: <FormField name="name" /> <FormField name="age" />
  </div>
</Form>

decorate

FormField generate the field component only, if you want to wrap the result, you can use decorate to wrap:

const FormItem = memo((props) => {
  const { className, ...attrs } = props

  return (
    <FormField {...attrs} decorate={(info, content) => {
      return (
        <div className={className}>
          <label>
            <span>{label ? label : info.label}{info.required ? <sup>*</sup> : null}</span>
            {content}
            {info.errors.length && info.changed ? <i>{info.errors.message}</i> : null}
          </label>
        </div>
      )
    }} />
  )
})

Yes, this is the implement of FormItem.

Field

A react component which drive the UI by model.

<Field model={model} name="age">
  {({ value, onChange }) => {
    return <input type="number" value={value} onChange={e => onChange(e.target.value)} />
  }}
</Field>

Props:

• model: a tyshemo model instance
• name: field name of the model
• names?: field names which will be used inside
• render?: function to render
• map?: function, append more props to render or component

If children is function, it will be used to render, if not, you can pass render to receive children to render.

<Field name="age" render={({ children }) => {
  ...
}} />

render

Use a render function to render.

<Field model={model} name="age" render={({ value, onChange }) => {
  return <input type="number" value={value} onChange={e => onChange(e.target.value)} />
}} />

info

And the render function will receive a info object:

• model: current used model
• value: the current value of this field
• required: boolean, is current field should not be required (defined in model schema)
• disabeld: boolean
• readonly: boolean
• hidden: boolean
• errors: array, current validation results (not including type checking and required checking result, only result by validators)
• onChange(next): function, when you invoke onChange in the render function, the Field component will rerender
• other keys which is based on name and names

map

If these props are not enough for your requirement, you can use map to load more props:

<Field name="age" map={(view) => {
  return {
    ...view,
    // override prop
    value: +view.value, // I want to make sure `value` is a number
  }
}} />

The appended props should be mreged into previous props. The return value of map will be passed into render function.

Field will only rerender when the name field's value change, this make it more performanceful.

names

In some cases, you need to use multiple fields in one section, then you should use names component.

<Field
  model={model}
  name="key"
  names={['key1', 'key2']}
  render={({ key, key1, key2 }) => {
    // ...
  }}
/>

Implement

The basic Field component is used by FormField and FormItem, you can use it to design your own components.

Field (without any UI) -> FormField (supports field component) -> FormItem (with label)
