Basics

• Keep input value and error in state
• Handle onChange event on input to update state (validation is performed here)
• "externalized" formElement (formElements file)
• defaultValue * label, label2

Additional requirements

• Trigger an action on input change (get some data, update another field, …)
• Validate another field (validateAnotherField) on input change (i.e. password confirmation - when password is changed, confirmation should be validated again)
• withDependancy validation
• Update another field(s) on change (i.e country-state selects or clinics-primary clinic, address same as patient's)
• multiselect onValueClick
• isVisible (invisible items don't pass through validation nor are included in prepareForServer result) (probably will be a part of schema)
• disabled field
• pass additionalProps specific to underling element (i.e. options for select, optionRenderer, labelIcon, etc.) * dynamic sub-foms - be able to dynamically extend schema (i.e add contact method (1 field), add address info(group of fields))

Form utils

• init form from schema with initial data
• prepare form data for server (withAdditionalProps option for selects)
• clone form data to be able to revert form to some previous state
• update form state - setSchemaStateValue, setSchemaStateValues (Bulk) * validate function

Differences with original schema:

• withDependancy validation: no wraper function withDependancy, instead we skip validator function if args have dependencyField and dependency value is different than in state or the state value is falsy

• if we pass dependencyInValidationArgs: true in val rule args, than compare dependencyValue with value passed as arg in validate function

  Tests

  • init.test

    • init default value from schema (keep value in state)
    • default isVisible flag in schema
    • init values with second arg
    • label and label2
    • select init with obj/string that is/is't in options
    • multi select ([] with obj/string that is/is't in options)

  • update.test

    • update field value in state onChange

  • validation.test

    • validate value on inputChage
    • support string and intl error messages (message is handled in formElemet)
    • support default and custom error messages
    • args property for validation func (based on another schema field or fixed arg)
    • validate another field
    • prevent cyclically validation with validate another field (validate another field only on field change)
    • with dependancy validation

  • render.test

    • render componet based on isVisible prop in arg
    • disable component based on disabled prop in arg
    • onChange cb for text input and selet
    • onInputChange for select

  • prepareForServer.test

  • setSchemaStateValue.test

  • getSchemaStateValue.test

  • cloneStateValues.test

  • npm publish --access public

Publish

1. commit all work with clean Flow and Eslint warning output
2. make sure that all tests are passing
3. increment version in package.json
4. run "npm publish --access public"

Flow:

• check type of variable in file: flow type-at-pos /path/to/file.js 6 6
