Methods #
toMap #
Returns a [Map] with all the fields and their values
Parameters
[ignoreEmpty] - if true, will ignore empty fields - default: false
[emptyValue] - value to be used if [ignoreEmpty] is false and the field is empty - default: false
[ignoreEmpty] and [emptyValue] if active together, only [ignoreEmpty] will be considere
Example
// Declare a form
AdvancedFormGenerator formGenerator = AdvancedFormGenerator(inputs: [
FormFieldItem(
label: 'E-mail',
required: true,
mapKey: 'email',
),FormFieldItem(
label: 'Senha',
mapKey: 'password',
),
]);

// Returns a map with the form's properties and values
**formGenerator.toMap();**

// Example
/*
{
'email': '',
'password: ''
}
*/
copied to clipboard
render
Returns a [List] with all the widgets to render
Example
// Declare a form
AdvancedFormGenerator formGenerator = AdvancedFormGenerator(inputs: [
FormFieldItem(
label: 'E-mail',
required: true,
mapKey: 'email',
),FormFieldItem(
label: 'Senha',
mapKey: 'password',
),
]);

...

// Inside widgets
...
Column(
children: formGenerator.render(),
),
...
// or
...
Column(
children: [
Text('Example'),
...formGenerator.render(),
]
),
...

reset #
Resets all the [TextEditingController]s inside [FormFieldItem]s and [IFormFieldItem]s to empty
Example
AdvancedFormGenerator form = AdvancedFormGenerator(inputs: [
FormFieldItem(
label: 'E-mail',
required: true,
mapKey: 'email',
initialValue: 'test@email.com'
),FormFieldItem(
label: 'Senha',
mapKey: 'password',
),
]);

// before reset
Map values = form.toMap();
// {'email': 'test@email.com', password: ''}

// after reset
form.reset();
values = form.toMap();
// {'email': '', password: ''}

),FormFieldItem(
label: 'Senha',
mapKey: 'password',

How to change the style of [FormFieldItem]? #
You can do it individually, like this
FormFieldItem(
label: 'E-mail',
required: true,
mapKey: 'email',
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Email',
labelStyle: TextStyle(fontSize: 18, color: Colors.grey[900]),
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10),
),
),
)
copied to clipboard
or for all
AdvancedFormGenerator formGenerator = AdvancedFormGenerator(inputs: [
FormFieldItem(
label: 'E-mail',
required: true,
mapKey: 'email',
),FormFieldItem(
label: 'Senha',
mapKey: 'password',
),
],
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Email',
labelStyle: TextStyle(fontSize: 18, color: Colors.grey[900]),
border: OutlineInputBorder(
borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(10),
),
),
);

Notes #

Do not place the [FormFieldItem] and [IFormFieldItem] inside any other Widget, or it will not be recognized as a text field.


If you are not using reactive state management, you may need to do a hot reload for changes made to the form code to take effect.


You can change the margin between [FormField Item] by passing the 'margin' parameter in the form's constructor.
