FormSchema API

props

schema Object (optional) default: {}

The JSON Schema object.
v-model Number|String|Array|Object|Boolean (optional) default: undefined

Use this directive to create two-way data bindings with the component. It automatically picks the correct way to update the element based on the input type.
action String (optional)

The URI of a program that processes the form information.
autocomplete String (optional)

This property indicates whether the value of the control can be automatically completed by the browser.

Possible values are: off and on.
enctype String (optional) default: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'

When the value of the method attribute is post, enctype is the MIME type of content that is used to submit the form to the server.

Possible values are:
- application/x-www-form-urlencoded: The default value if the attribute is not specified.
- multipart/form-data: The value used for an <input/> element with the type attribute set to "file".
- text/plain (HTML5)
method String (optional) default: 'post'

The HTTP method that the browser uses to submit the form.

Possible values are:
- post: Corresponds to the HTTP POST method ; form data are included in the body of the form and sent to the server.
- get: Corresponds to the HTTP GET method; form data are appended to the action attribute URI with a '?' as separator, and the resulting URI is sent to the server. Use this method when the form has no side-effects and contains only ASCII characters.
novalidate Boolean (optional)

This Boolean attribute indicates that the form is not to be validated when submitted.
components Components (optional) default: GLOBAL.components

Use this prop to overwrite the default Native HTML Elements for custom components.

events

change

Fired when a change to the element's value is committed by the user.
input

Fired synchronously when the value of an element is changed.
invalid

Fired when a submittable element has been checked and doesn't satisfy its constraints. The validity of submittable elements is checked before submitting their owner form, or after the checkValidity() of the element or its owner form is called.
submit

Fired when a form is submitted

methods

load(schema, model)

Load the given schema with initial filled value. Use this to load async schema.

parameters:
- schema object - The JSON Schema object to load
- model Number|String|Array|Object|Boolean - The initial data for the schema.
form()

Get the HTML form reference.
reportValidity()

Returns true if the element's child controls satisfy their validation constraints. When false is returned, cancelable invalid events are fired for each invalid child and validation problems are reported to the user.
checkValidity()

Checks whether the form has any constraints and whether it satisfies them. If the form fails its constraints, the browser fires a cancelable invalid event at the element, and then returns false.
reset()

Reset the value of all elements of the parent form.
submit(event)

Send the content of the form to the server.
setErrorMessage(message)

Set a message error.
clearErrorMessage()

clear the message error.

Usage

In your Vue file:

<template> <FormSchema :schema="schema" v-model="model" @submit="submit"> <button type="submit">Subscribe</button> </FormSchema> </template> <script> import FormSchema from '@formschema/native' import schema from './schema/newsletter-subscription.json' export default { data: () => ({ schema: schema, model: {} }), methods: { submit (e) { // this.model contains the valid data according your JSON Schema. // You can submit your model to the server here } }, components: { FormSchemaNative } } </script>

Define your JSON Schema file:

{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "type": "object", "title": "Newsletter Subscription", "properties": { "name": { "type": "string", "minLength": 8, "maxLength": 80, "attrs": { "placeholder": "Full Name", "title": "Please enter your full name" } }, "email": { "type": "string", "maxLength": 120, "attrs": { "type": "email", "placeholder": "Email" } }, "lists": { "type": "string", "enum": ["Daily New", "Promotion"] } }, "required": ["name", "email", "lists"] }

Working with Async Schema

You may want to use FormSchema with a schema loaded from a remote URL.

To do that, use the load(schema[, value = undefined]) method:

<template>  <FormSchema ref="formSchema"/> </template> <script> import axios from 'axios' import FormSchema from '@formschema/native' export default { created () { axios.get('/api/schema/subscription.json').then(({ data }) => { this.$refs.formSchema.load(data) }) }, components: { FormSchema } } </script>

Multiple Checkbox elements

To define multiple checkbox, use the JSON Schema keyword anyOf:

schema.json

{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "type": "object", "properties": { "multipleCheckbox": { "type": "array", "anyOf": [ { "value": "daily", "label": "Daily New" }, { "value": "promotion", "label": "Promotion" } ] } } }

Grouped Radio elements

To group radio elements, use the JSON Schema keyword enum and attrs.type === 'radio':

schema.json

{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "type": "object", "properties": { "groupedRadio": { "type": "string", "enum": [ { "value": "daily", "label": "Daily New" }, { "value": "promotion", "label": "Promotion" } ], "attrs": { "type": "radio" } } } }

Array Inputs Elements

To render a array field, define your schema like:

schema.json

{ "$schema": "http://json-schema.org/draft-04/schema#", "type": "object", "properties": { "arrayInput": { "type": "array", "items": { "type": "string" } } } }
