react-sliding-form

• Easily build sliding forms (multi-step optional) inside of a mui dialog popup. (live example can be found at https://www.carbodylab.com/)
• Conveniently collect all data gathered in each step only when you need to (reduce the use of context and re-renders caused by passing state down).
• Store all state logic inside of each step themselves, rather than using a context or passing state down. Allow each step to validate itself and inform react-sliding-form when it is complete.
• Conveniently determine when to disable or enable "next" buttons for you, by passing each child (step) of react-sliding-form a setIsReady function, freely called by each child when complete.

What this does

Allows you to easily build sliding forms (multi-step optional) inside of a dialog popup like the three screenshots below:

How to use SlidingForm

import { Box, Dialog, Button } from '@mui/material
import { SlidingForm } from 'react-sliding-form'
import Slide1 from './Slide1'
import Slide2 from './Slide2'
import Slide3 from './Slide3'
import Slide4 from './Slide4'
import { styles } from './styles'

const slideItems = [
  { slide: Step1, label: 'Vehicle' },
  { slide: Step2, label: 'Photos' },
  { slide: Step3, label: 'Contact' },
  { slide: Step4 }
]

const Container = () => {
  const submitRequest = data = () => fetch('https://www.arrontaylor.me/submit_request', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      },
      body: JSON.stringify(data)
    })
  
  return (
    <Box>
      <Dialog open={open}>
        <SlidingForm 
          slideItems={slideItems}
          submitAction={v => submitRequest(v)}
          closeAction={() => setOpen(false)}
          styles={styles}
        />  
      </Dialog>
      <Button onClick={_ => setOpen(true)}> Open Dialog </Button>
    </Box>
}

How to write each step

1. Make sure to consume the properties { setIsReady, refValue }
2. Make sure to use the useElevateChildState hook and pass it all of the values you want to keep track of, along with the refValue prop, and finally a list of dependencies.
3. When the step is considered "ready", call the setIsReady function with the current "ready state" of the step.
4. Once the step calls setIsReady, the buttons in the stepper will automatically update to allow for "next".

import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'
import { TextField, Box } from '@mui/material'
import { useElevateChildState } from 'react-sliding-form'

const Step3 = ({ setIsReady, refValue, currentData }) => {
  const [zip, setZip] = useState(null)
  const [name, setName] = useState(null)
  const [phone, setPhone] = useState(null)
  const [email, setEmail] = useState(null)
  const nameIsValid = name && name.trim().length > 1
  const phoneIsValid = phone && /\d{10}/.test(phone)
  const zipIsValid = zip && /^\d{5}$/.test(zip)
  const emailIsValid =
    email && /^\w+([.-]?\w+)*@\w+([.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/.test(email)

  // currentData is an up to date global state of all steps

  const contactIsValid =
    (nameIsValid && phoneIsValid && zipIsValid && emailIsValid) || false

  setIsReady(contactIsValid)

  useElevateChildState({ zip, name, phone, email },
    refValue, [zip, name, phone, email])

  return (
    <Box>
      <Box>
        Enter your contact details Full name
        <TextField
          onChange={e => setName(e.target.value)}
          value={name || ''}
          placeholder='Full Name'
        />
        <br />
        Phone
        <TextField
          onChange={e => setPhone(e.target.value)}
          value={phone || ''}
          placeholder=' (123)  456 &#8212; 7890 '
        />
        <br />
        Your email
        <TextField
          onChange={e => setEmail(e.target.value)}
          value={email || ''}
          placeholder='[email protected]'
        />
        <br />
        Zip code
        <TextField
          onChange={e => setZip(e.target.value)}
          value={zip || ''}
          placeholder='5-Digit ZIP Code'
        />
      </Box>
    </Box>
  )
}

export default Step3
