Forms

HOCS Frontend consumes schemas from backend workflow services for display and validation purposes

Schema

Forms are comprised of three objects.

• The Schema defines properties of the form and includes and array of Components that describe the fields.
• The Data is a map of key/value pairs that correspond to the fields of the form, these values are injected in to the components at run time on the client when rendering the form.
• The Meta object contains key/value pairs of meta-data that is used outside of the form context.

 {
     schema: {
         title: 'Test Form',
         defaultActionLabel: 'Submit',
         submissionUrl: '/api/endpoint',
         fields: [...component_array]
     },
     data: {
         ...form_data
     },
     meta: {
         ...form_meta
     }
 }

Component

    component: 'text',
    validation: [...validation_rules]
    props: {
      name: 'my_field',

    }
