Description:

easy form validation

The easy_form_validation library provides a declarative approach for form validation in Dart and Flutter applications. It offers a collection of form validation classes that allow you to easily validate user input in form fields.
Usage #
ValidatorGroup #
The ValidatorGroup class allows you to group multiple validators and apply them in sequence. It returns the first error message encountered during validation, or null if all validators pass.
Example usage:
TextFormField(
validator: (value) {
return ValidatorGroup<String>([
RequiredValidator<String>(errorMessage: 'This field is required.'),
MinLengthValidator(8, errorMessage: 'Password must be atleast 8 characters long.'),
CustomValidator<String>(
validator: (value) {
final password = passwordController.text;
if (value != password) {
return "Passwords do not match";
}
return null;
},
),
]).validate(value);
},
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Confirm Password',
),
),

In the above example, the ValidatorGroup is used to validate a TextFormField. It applies a RequiredValidator to ensure the field is not empty and a MinLengthValidator to ensure minimum input length.Additionally, a CustomValidator is used to check if the confirm password matches the entered password. If any of the validators fail, the corresponding error message is returned
You can also use a single validator as well.
TextFormField(
validator: (value) {
return RequiredValidator<String>(errorMessage: 'This field is required.').validate(value);
},
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Name',
),
),

Or
// validate method has same signature as FormField's validator method so you can also use this.
TextFormField(
validator: RequiredValidator<String>(errorMessage: 'This field is required.').validate,
decoration: InputDecoration(
labelText: 'Name',
),
),
copied to clipboard
All the validators accept a generic type T which allows us to use validators with any kind of value.Example use in dropdown fields
class Option {
final int id;
final String name;

Option(this.id, this.name);
}

DropdownButtonFormField<Option>(
...
validator: RequiredValidator<Option>(errorMessage: 'Please select an option.').validate,
),
