Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

React Form Object react-form-object

A library for composing and managing complex forms in React.

Description

The FormObject component is a powerful tool for managing form state in React applications. It provides a simple and intuitive interface for handling form data, validation, and submission. With FormObject, you can easily define complex forms with nested fields and dynamic validation rules. It handles state management internally, reducing boilerplate code and making form development more efficient. Additionally, FormObject integrates seamlessly with Yup for schema-based validation and provides hooks for custom validation logic. Overall, FormObject simplifies the process of building and managing forms in React applications, making it an essential tool for frontend developers.

Installation

You can install the package via npm:

npm install react-form-object

Or via yarn:

yarn add react-form-object

Componentes

  • FormObject: For managing complex data forms.
  • FormIterator: For managing arrays of complex data forms.

Usage

To use the FormObject component, import it from react-form-object and use it within your React components. Here's a simple example of how to use the FormObject component:

See the full code here

export const ContactSimpleExample = () => {
  const [data, setData] = useState(initContact);
  // Method for load options of form
  const doOptions = async () => {
    await sleep(1000); // Simulate fetching options from a server
    return {
      status: "ready",
      options: {
        gender: [
          { value: "", label: `??? ${Date.now()}` },
          { value: "M", label: "Male" },
          { value: "F", label: "Female" },
        ],
      },
    };
  };

  // Method for validate the contact data
  // You could use any tool
  const doValidate = async (contact) => {
    try {
      const result = contactSchema.validateSync(contact, { abortEarly: false });
      return {
        status: "valid",
        feedback: {
          name: {
            type: "valid",
            message: "It is valid!!!",
          },
        },
      };
    } catch (validationError) {
      const feedback = {};
      validationError.inner.forEach((error) => {
        const path = error.path;
        const errorMessage = error.message;
        feedback[path] = { type: "invalid", message: errorMessage };
      });
      return { status: "invalid", feedback };
    }
  };
  // Submit data
  const doSubmit = async ({ data }) => {
    setData(data);
    await sleep(1000); // Simulate submitting data to a server
    return {
      status: "failed",
      message: {
        type: "danger",
        title: "Invalid Service",
        description: "This service is invalid",
      },
    };
  };
  // Declare FormObject
  return (
    <div>
      <FormObject
        data={data}
        doOptions={doOptions}
        doSubmit={doSubmit}
        doValidate={doValidate}
      >
        <ContactForm />
      </FormObject>
      <pre>MAIN:{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre>
    </div>
  );
};

The ContactForm is abstracted from data information and can be split into smaller parts, as it is reused in other forms.

const ContactForm = () => {
  const { data, onSubmit, onReset, onReload, options } = useFormObject();
  const enabledGuardian = data.age && data.age < 18;
  return (
    <FormLayout className={ROOT_STYLE[status]}>
      <FormInputText label="Name" name="name" required />
      <FormInputText label="Last Name" name="lastname" required />
      <FormInputText label="Gender" name="gender" required />
      <FormInputText label="Age" name="age" required />
      <FormInputText
        label="Guardian Name"
        name="guardianName"
        disabled={!enabledGuardian}
        required
      />
      <FormInputText
        label="Guardian Phone"
        name="guardianPhone"
        disabled={!enabledGuardian}
        required
      />
      <FormInputText label="Correo Electrónico" name="email" required />
      <FormSelectText
        label="Gender"
        name="gender"
        options={options.gender}
        required
      />
      <div className="message">
        <MessageResponse />
      </div>
      <div className="actions">
        <ButtonGroup>
          <Button variant="success" type="button" onClick={onReload}>
            Reload
          </Button>
          <Button variant="danger" type="button" onClick={onReset}>
            Reset
          </Button>
          <Button variant="primary" type="button" onClick={() => onSubmit()}>
            Submit
          </Button>
          <Button
            variant="primary"
            type="button"
            onClick={() => onSubmit(true)}
          >
            Force Submit
          </Button>
        </ButtonGroup>
      </div>
    </FormLayout>
  );
};

The FormInputText component is reused throughout the entire project.

const FormInputText = ({ name, label, ...props }) => {
  const { getAttribute, setAttribute, feedback } = useFormObject();
  const onChange = (e) => setAttribute(name, e.target.value);
  const value = getAttribute(name) || "";
  const className = ITEM_STYLE[feedback[name]?.type];
  return (
    <Form.Group className={name}>
      <Form.Label>{label}</Form.Label>
      <Form.Control
        {...props}
        value={value}
        onChange={onChange}
        className={className}
      />
      <Form.Control.Feedback type={feedback[name]?.type}>
        {feedback[name]?.message}
      </Form.Control.Feedback>
    </Form.Group>
  );
};

The MessageResponse component is reused throughout the entire project.

const MessageResponse = () => {
  const { status, message } = useFormObject();
  return (
    message && (
      <Alert variant={message.type}>
        <b>
          {status} - {message.title}:{" "}
        </b>{" "}
        {message.description}
      </Alert>
    )
  );
};

useFormValue

The useFormValue hook provides access to the functionality for a specified path, allowing for dynamic management of object data within forms. This hook partially replaces the data and setData methods with value and setValue. Additionally, the getAttribute and setAttribute methods will affect the base path with the specified path parameter.

useFormList

The useFormList hook provides access to the functionality for a specified path, allowing for dynamic management of array data within forms. In addition to the functionality provided by useFormValue, this hook includes methods for manipulating the list, such as addItem, removeItem, removeIndex, setItem, and getItem.

StateValue Hooks

const [
      value,
      setValue,
      getAttribute,
      setAttribute,
