Multi validations #
For multi rules validation put your validation in a list and call validate() extension method on the list, it will execute validation one by one, it will stop execution when it encounter the first validation error and return the errorText to increase performance.
Form(
key: _formKey,
child: Column(
children: <Widget>[
TextFormField(
onChanged: (v) => password = v,
validator: (v) => [
v.isRequired(),
v.minLength(8),
].validate(),
),
TextFormField(
validator: (v) => [
v.isRequired(),
v.match(password),
].validate(),
),
],
),

Custom validations #
If you want to use you own validations in multi rule validation, your validation rules must be:
Function that returns a Function that returns a String.
Function customValidation(v) {
return(){
return v != "Validation logic" ? "Invalid input" : null;
};
}
Form(
key: _formKey,
child: TextFormField(
autovalidate: true,
validator: (v) => [
v.isRequired(),
customValidation(v),
].validate(),
),
),

Custom error message #
Pass the optional named parameter errorText to the extension method to override the default error message
Form(
key: _formKey,
child: TextFormField(
onChanged: (v) => password = v,
validator: (v) => [
v.isRequired(
errorText: "Password is required",
),
v.minLength(
