⚠️ Help Wanted ⚠️

This package is currently under active restoration after a long hiatus, and all help is appreciated, especially MUI users.

formsy-material-ui

This library is a wrapper for Material-UI form components to allow them to be used with formsy-react, a form validation component for React forms.

Installation

To and install formsy-material-ui and add it to your package.json, run:

$ yarn add formsy-material-ui

You will also need to add these peer dependencies if not already installed:

• create-react-class
• formsy-react@0.19.5
• material-ui@0.18.7
• react-dom
• react

Usage

import {
  FormsyAutoComplete,
  FormsyCheckbox,
  FormsyDate,
  FormsyRadio,
  FormsyRadioGroup,
  FormsySelect,
  FormsyText,
  FormsyTime,
  FormsyToggle,
} from 'formsy-material-ui';

Events

Components allow for onChange event handlers in props. They are fired when the value of the component changes, regardless of the underlying handler (eg, FormsyToggle uses onToggle internally, but we still use onChange in props to hook into the event.)

The call back signatures for all onChange handlers conform to Material-UI's proposed Standardized Callback Signatures.

An example usage of this would be to use an onChange for the FormsySelect and receive notifications when it changes.

Example Form

  FormsyRadioGroup,
  FormsySelect,
  FormsyText,
  FormsyTime,
  FormsyToggle,

} from 'formsy-material-ui/lib';
