Form

Form is used to collect, validate, and submit the user input, usually contains various form items including checkbox, radio, input, select, and etc.

Form#

You can align the controls of a form using the layout prop:

  • horizontal:to horizontally align the labels and controls of the fields. (Default)

  • vertical:to vertically align the labels and controls of the fields.

  • inline:to render form fields in one line.

Form fields#

A form consists of one or more form fields whose type includes input, textarea, checkbox, radio, select, tag, and more. A form field is defined using <Form.Item />.

<Form.Item {...props}>
  {children}
</Form.Item>

Examples

Horizontal login form is often used in navigation bar.

We can store form data into upper component or Redux or dva by using onFieldsChange and mapPropsToFields, see more at this rc-form demo.

Note: You must wrap field data with Form.createFormField in mapPropsToFields.

A prime is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself.

Form.create will collect and validate form data automatically. But if you don't need this feature or the default behaviour cannot satisfy your business, you can drop Form.create and handle form data manually.

We provide properties like validateStatus help hasFeedback to customize your own validate status and message, without using Form.create and getFieldDecorator.

  1. validateStatus: validate status of form components which could be 'success', 'warning', 'error', 'validating'.

  2. hasFeedback: display feed icon of input control

  3. help: display validate message.

API#

Form#

more example rc-form

PropertyDescriptionTypeDefault Value
formDecorated by Form.create() will be automatically set this.props.form property, so just pass to form, you don't need to set it by yourself after 1.7.0.objectn/a
hideRequiredMarkHide required mark of all form itemsBooleanfalse
layoutDefine form layout(Support after 2.8)'horizontal'|'vertical'|'inline''horizontal'
onSubmitDefines a function will be called if form data validation is successful.Function(e:Event)

Form.create(options)#

How to use:

class CustomizedForm extends React.Component {}

CustomizedForm = Form.create({})(CustomizedForm);

The following options are available:

PropertyDescriptionType
mapPropsToFieldsConvert props to field value(e.g. reading the values from Redux store). And you must mark returned fields with Form.createFormField(props) => Object{ fieldName: FormField { value } }
validateMessagesDefault validate message. And its format is similar with newMessages's returned valueObject { nested.path: String }
onFieldsChangeSpecify a function that will be called when the value a Form.Item gets changed. Usage example: saving the field's value to Redux store.Function(props, fields)
onValuesChangeA handler while value of any field is changed(props, values) => void

If the form has been decorated by Form.create then it has this.props.form property. this.props.form provides some APIs as follows:

Note: Before using getFieldsValue getFieldValue setFieldsValue and so on, please make sure that corresponding field had been registered with getFieldDecorator.

MethodDescriptionType
getFieldDecoratorTwo-way binding for form, please read below for details.
getFieldErrorGet the error of a field.Function(name)
getFieldsErrorGet the specified fields' error. If you don't specify a parameter, you will get all fields' error.Function([names: string[]])
getFieldsValueGet the specified fields' values. If you don't specify a parameter, you will get all fields' values.Function([fieldNames: string[]])
getFieldValueGet the value of a field.Function(fieldName: string)
isFieldsTouchedCheck whether any of fields is touched by getFieldDecorator's options.trigger event(names?: string[]) => boolean
isFieldTouchedCheck whether a field is touched by getFieldDecorator's options.trigger event(name: string) => boolean
isFieldValidatingCheck if the specified field is being validated.Function(name)
resetFieldsReset the specified fields' value(to initialValue) and status. If you don't specify a parameter, all the fields will be reset.Function([names: string[]])
setFieldsSet the value and error of a field. Code SampleFunction({ fieldName: { value: any, errors: Error } })
setFieldsFunction(obj: object)
setFieldsValueSet the value of a field.(Note: please don't use it in componentWillReceiveProps, otherwise, it will cause an endless loop, more)Function({ fieldName: value }
validateFieldsValidate the specified fields and get theirs values and errors. If you don't specify the parameter of fieldNames, you will vaildate all fields.Function([fieldNames: string[]], options: object, callback: Function(errors, values))
validateFieldsAndScrollThis function is similar to validateFields, but after validation, if the target field is not in visible area of form, form will be automatically scrolled to the target field area.same as validateFields

this.props.form.validateFields/validateFieldsAndScroll([fieldNames: string[]], options: object, callback: Function(errors, values))#

MethodDescriptionTypeDefault
options.firstIf true, every field will stop validation at first failed rulebooleanfalse
options.firstFieldsThose fields will stop validation at first failed ruleString[][]
options.forceShould validate validated field again when validateTrigger is been triggered againbooleanfalse
options.scrollConfig scroll behavior of validateFieldsAndScroll, more: dom-scroll-into-view's configObject{}

Form.createFormField#

To mark the returned fields data in mapPropsToFields, demo.

this.props.form.getFieldDecorator(id, options)#

After wrapped by getFieldDecorator, value(or other property defined by valuePropName) onChange(or other property defined by trigger) props will be added to form controls,the flow of form data will be handled by Form which will cause:

  1. You shouldn't use onChange to collect data, but you still can listen to onChange(and so on) events.

  2. You can not set value of form control via value defaultValue prop, and you should set default value with initialValue in getFieldDecorator instead.

  3. You shouldn't call setState manually, please use this.props.form.setFieldsValue to change value programmatically.

Special attention#

  1. getFieldDecorator can not be used to decorate stateless component.

  2. If you use react@<15.3.0, then, you can't use getFieldDecorator in stateless component: https://github.com/facebook/react/pull/6534

getFieldDecorator(id, options) parameters#

PropertyDescriptionTypeDefault Value
idThe unique identifier is required. support nested fields format.string
options.getValueFromEventSpecify how to get value from event or other onChange argumentsfunction(..args)reference
options.initialValueYou can specify initial value, type, optional value of children node. (Note: Because Form will test equality with === internaly, we recommend to use vairable as initialValue, instead of literal)n/a
options.normalizeNormalize value to form component, a select-all examplefunction(value, prevValue, allValues): any-
options.rulesIncludes validation rules. Please refer to "Validation Rules" part for details.object[]n/a
options.triggerWhen to collect the value of children nodestring'onChange'
options.validateFirstWhether stop validate on first rule of error for this field.booleanfalse
options.validateTriggerWhen to validate the value of children node.string|string[]'onChange'
options.valuePropNameProps of children node, for example, the prop of Switch is 'checked'.string'value'

More option at rc-form option

Form.Item#

Note:

  • If Form.Item has multiple children that had been decorated by getFieldDecorator, help and required and validateStatus can't be generated automatically.

  • Before 2.2.0, form controls must be child of Form.Item, otherwise, you need to set help, required and validateStatus by yourself.

PropertyDescriptionTypeDefault Value
colonUsed with label, whether to display : after label text.booleantrue
extraThe extra prompt message. It is similar to help. Usage example: to display error message and prompt message at the same time.string|ReactNode
hasFeedbackUsed with validateStatus, this option specifies the validation status icon. Recommended to be used only with Input.booleanfalse
helpThe prompt message. If not provided, the prompt message will be generated by the validation rule.string|ReactNode
labelLabel textstring|ReactNode
labelColThe layout of label. You can set span offset to something like {span: 3, offset: 12} or sm: {span: 3, offset: 12} same as with <Col>object
requiredWhether provided or not, it will be generated by the validation rule.booleanfalse
validateStatusThe validation status. If not provided, it will be generated by validation rule. options: 'success' 'warning' 'error' 'validating'string
wrapperColThe layout for input controls, same as labelColobject

Validation Rules#

PropertyDescriptionTypeDefault Value
