Form Validation for React Native

Form validation react native is a simple library to validate your form in React Native App. It is easy to use and it includes text box, checkbox, radio button and dropdown field. It will validate all your field on the click of button.

1. Installation

NPM

npm install form-validation-react-native

Yarn

yarn add form-validation-react-native

2. Use it in your app

As of right now this will only work in IOS and Android. Soon we will cover Expo.

import {DropdownQuestion, TextBoxQuestion, FormButton, useForm} from "form-validation-react-native";
    <View>
        <TextBoxQuestion question={question.firstName} onChange={handleChange} onBlur={handleBlur}/>
        <DropdownQuestion question={question.country} onChange={handleChange} onBlur={handleBlur}/>
        <TextBoxQuestion question={question.email} onChange={handleChange} onBlur={handleBlur}/>
        <FormButton onPress={handleOnButtonPress} title={"Any Name"} />
    </View>

3. You don't need any state to see your changes. All input field will set as object in one state, and you can use it however you like.

• Let's see how to implement this.

import { Alert } from 'react-native';
