Json Powered Flutter Forms.

flutter_formly #

Create Dynamic Flutter Forms with customization of field logic from JSON.

Getting Started #

Include flutter_formly in your pubspec.yaml and save to download the package.

Components #

Formly Contains widgets and different types to create a fully functional Flutter form, some of the major types are as follows:

FormlyForm #

A Statefull widget Container to create the all formly fields as a ListView in its builder.

FieldConfig #

A class to create a dynamic field. Field config has following properties:

a. key is a the json property of the form Map model.
b. type tell the FormlyForm to create an appropriate field e.g ..type = 'radio' will create a radio type field.
c. onChange call back method on every change event.
d. validators takes an array of FormlyValidator which runs onChange or onSubmit based on FormlyValidator bool propery onChange. Each FormlyValidator class has property validator which is a callback method for validation, which should return null on all times except when error and then it should return an error message string.
e. asyncValidators similar to validators but designed for Future returning validators of type AsyncFormlyValidator. The future should however return a true or false. The message property will be used on error message.
f. templateOptions takes an object of type FormlyTemplateOptions which has properties for setting label, hint and icon for the field.
g. options takes an array of SelectOption for type radio and select fields. h. hideFunction takes a call back function which if returns true will hide this field.

Create a basic Formly Form #

In your builder method of statefull or state less widget use the FormlyForm widget like below:

    class Demo extends StatefulWidget {
      final Widget child;

      Demo({Key key, this.child}) : super(key: key);

      _DemoState createState() => _DemoState();
    }
    class DemoState extends State<Demo> {
        var _lights = false;
        List<FieldConfig> createFields() {
            return <FieldConfig>[
                FieldConfig()
                ..key = 'radio'
                ..type = 'radio' 
                ..onChange = print
                ..defaultValue = 'female'
                ..validators = [
                  FormlyValidator()
                  ..name = 'male'
                  ..onChange = true
                  ..validator = (model, field) => model[field.key] == 'male' ? null : 'Only Males allowed'
                ]
                ..asyncValidators = [
                  AsyncFormlyValidator()
                  ..name = 'maleAsync'
                  ..message = 'Only Males Allowed'
                  ..onChange = true
                  ..validator = (model, field) => Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1)).then((v) => NullThrownError())
                ]
                ..options = [
                  SelectOption()
                  ..name = 'Male'
                  ..value = 'male',
                  SelectOption()
                  ..name = 'Female'
                  ..value = 'female'
                ]            
                ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                ..label = 'Label comes here'
                // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                ),
                FieldConfig()
                  ..key = 'select'
                  ..type = 'select'
                  ..onChange = print
                  ..defaultValue = 'female'
                  ..options = [
                    SelectOption()
                      ..name = 'Male'
                      ..value = 'male',
                    SelectOption()
                      ..name = 'Female'
                      ..value = 'female'
                  ]
                  ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                    ..label = 'Label comes here'
                  // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                    ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                  ),
                FieldConfig()
                  ..key = 'date'
                  ..type = 'date'
                  ..onChange = print
                  ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                    ..label = 'Date'
                  // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                    ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                  ),
                FieldConfig()
                  ..key = 'datetime'
                  ..type = 'datetime'
                  ..onChange = print
                  ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                    ..label = 'Date and Time'
                  // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                    ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                  ),
                FieldConfig()
                  ..key = 'switch'
                  ..type = 'switch'
                  ..onChange = print
                  ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                    ..label = 'Switch'
                  // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                    ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                  ),
                FieldConfig()
                  ..key = 'check'
                  ..type = 'checkbox'
                  ..onChange = print
                  ..templateOptions = (FormlyTemplateOptions()
                    ..label = 'Switch'
                  // ..hint = 'Check box hin'
                    ..icon = Icon(Icons.label)
                  ),
            ];
        }

        @override
        Widget build(BuildContext context) {
        return Scaffold(     
          body: Container(
            child: FormlyForm(
              fields: createFields(),
              model: {},
              onChange: print,
            ),
          )      
        );
      }
    }

Create a Formly Form with bloc #

There are times when you want to validate a form on submittion and/or want to observe change reactively using streams or rxDart subject, you may consider more advanced implementation of the same form like below:

class Demo extends StatefulWidget {
final Widget child;

Demo({Key key, this.child}) : super(key: key);

_DemoState createState() => _DemoState();
}
class DemoState extends State<Demo> {
 var _lights = false;
 FormlyBloc bloc;
 _DemoState() {
     bloc = new FormlyBloc({}, createFields());
 }
 //... implementation of createFields ommited here...
 @override
 Widget build(BuildContext context) {
 return Scaffold(     
   body: Column(
     children: <Widget>[
       Container(
         child: FormlyForm(
           bloc: bloc,          
           onChange: print,
         ),
       ),
       MaterialButton(
         child: Text('Submit'),
         onPressed: () async {
           if(await bloc.validateForm()) {
             // Form valid here
             print(bloc.modelValue);
           }
           // else errors will show.
         },
       )
     ],
   )      
 );
}
}
