A Swift package for simple management of forms and its fields. Focused on SwiftUI.
- Declarative form and validation definition.
- Single state for the whole form with its fields.
- Support for non-
String
validations and fields like toggles, sliders, selection, multi-selection and more. - Cross-field validation, comparing values of more fields with each other (like password and password again fields).
- Some standard built-in validations (required, empty, email and methods for combining validation rules).
- Works nicely with the new
@FocusState
APIs.
You can define a form state like this as a simple struct instead of defining more state properies for each field:
struct SignupForm {
var name: String
var email: String
var password: String
var acceptedPrivacyPolicy: Bool
}
To setup prefilled values for the field you can use default property values (or some static instance if you prefer):
struct SignupForm {
var name = String()
var email = String()
var password = String()
var acceptedPrivacyPolicy = false
}
To declare validation logic for the form you can create an array of validations:
let validations: [FormValidation<SignupForm>] = [
FormValidation(for: \.name, description: "Name must be filled in.", rule: .required),
FormValidation(for: \.email, description: "Email must be filled in.", rule: .required),
FormValidation(for: \.email, description: "Email is not in in valid format.", rule: .email),
FormValidation(for: \.password, description: "Password is required.", rule: .required),
FormValidation(for: \.password, description: "Password must be longer than 6 characters") { $0.count > 6 },
FormValidation(for: \.acceptedPrivacyPolicy, description: "You need to accept privacy policy.", rule: .hasToBeOn)
]
And if you want to use the package for focus management you can define array of key paths as a field order.
let fieldOrder: [PartialKeyPath<Self>] = [\.name, \.email, \.password]
When you have your form declared you can you it in the view:
struct SignupView: View {
@State private var state = FormState(form: SignupForm())
@FocusState private var focus: PartialKeyPath<SignupForm>?
var body: some View {
Form {
Section {
TextField("Name", text: $state.form.name)
.focused($focus, equals: \.name)
.onSubmit {
state.submit(field: \.name, updating: &focus)
}
ForEach(errors, id: \.self, content: Text.init)
.font(.footnote)
.foregroundColor(.red)
}
...
Section {
Button(action: submit) {
Label("Submit", systemImage: "arrow.right")
}
}
}
}
private func submit() {
if state.validate() {
...
} else {
...
}
}
}
