What is rc-field-form?

The rc-field-form package is a React component library for managing form state and validation. It provides a set of tools to create complex forms with ease, including form validation, custom form controls, and form layout. It is designed to work with React's uncontrolled components and does not rely on external state management libraries.

What are rc-field-form's main functionalities?

Form and Field Components

Provides Form and Field components to create a form with validation rules. The Field component is used to define each form item with its validation rules.

{"<Form>
  <Field name='username' rules={[{ required: true }]}/>
  <Field name='password' rules={[{ required: true }]}/>
</Form>"}

Form Validation

Supports synchronous and asynchronous validation for form fields. The onFinish and onFinishFailed callbacks handle form submission and validation failure, respectively.

{"<Form onFinish={onFinish} onFinishFailed={onFinishFailed}>
  <Field name='email' rules={[{ type: 'email', required: true }]}/>
  <Field name='password' rules={[{ required: true }]}/>
  <button type='submit'>Submit</button>
</Form>"}

Custom Form Controls

Allows the integration of custom form controls by using the render props pattern. The control object contains the necessary props for the custom input, and the meta object contains validation error messages.

{"<Form>
  <Field name='customInput'>
    {(control, meta) => <CustomInput {...control} error={meta.errors[0]} />}
  </Field>
</Form>"}
