Overview

Form validation is a critical aspect for any web application, and when it comes to React, integrating the Bootstrap framework can greatly enhance user experience. This validation library simplifies the process of form management by providing robust features for validating user inputs while leveraging the familiar React-Bootstrap components. Whether you're building a simple registration form or implementing a complex validation schema, this library offers the flexibility needed to ensure your forms are both functional and user-friendly.

By encapsulating validation logic within reusable components, developers can focus on creating intuitive interfaces without worrying about the intricacies of input validation. This means you can ensure that your application's forms are not only efficient but also provide real-time feedback to users, enhancing the overall experience.

Features

onValidSubmit Callback: This required function receives a values object with a map of input names and their corresponding values, allowing for easy access to validated data upon successful submission.
onInvalidSubmit Callback: This functionality triggers an event when form submissions do not pass validation. Developers receive both errors and values as parameters, facilitating troubleshooting.
model Property: Accepts an initial state for the form as a hash map, enabling pre-filled data for various inputs, which is particularly useful in cases of edit forms.
validateOne Function: Calls field-level validations either on submission or during the onchange events. It accommodates validation with external schemas to ensure consistency across various forms.
validateAll Function: A global validation function that assesses all inputs together instead of field-by-field validation, making it easier to manage complex forms where interdependencies exist.
errorHelp Property: Allows developers to provide custom error messages when validation fails. If unspecified, a default message from the form's settings will be used.
validationEvent Property: Lets you control the event that triggers validation (onChange, onBlur, or onFocus), enhancing the interactivity and responsiveness of the form.
ValidatedInput Component: An extension of Bootstrap's input component designed specifically for validations, ensuring a consistent and reliable user experience across all input fields.
