Form Utility #
Description #
"This package provides a set of utilities to simplify form handling in Flutter. It includes classes for form fields and validations, as well as a mixin for form management. The package is designed to be flexible and extensible, allowing you to define your own form fields and validations as needed."
Installation #
To use this package, add form_utility as a dependency in your pubspec.yaml file.
Usage #
To use this package, first of all you add the FormUtility to where you need the functionalities.
Then you can register your fields and validations with the FormUtility mixin. The FormUtility mixin provides methods for registering fields and validations, as well as for validating the form and accessing the form data.
registerField(
InputField(
name: 'EmailFieldKey',
isRequired: true,
validators: [EmailValidator()],
),
);

Now you have control over the fields, and you can validate them however you want.
You can even benefit from cross-field validation.
registerField(
InputField(
name: 'ConfirmPasswordKey',
generateCustomValidators: (formValues) {
return [
BaseValidator(
errorMessage: 'Passwords do not match',
validation: (value) => value == fields['PasswordKey']?.value,
),
];
},
),
);

You can use the predefined validators or create your own extending BaseValidator.
class CustomValidator extends BaseValidator {
ExactLengthValidator() : super(
errorMessage: 'your error message',
validation: (value) => 'your validation logic',
);
}

The form can now get validated by calling the validateForm method. If you needed hot validation on a field, you need to register the field with 'hotErrorEnabled' set to true.
The error messaged are returned by the validateForm method. The validateField could also be used to validate a single field.
