Dynamic schema-based form rendering for VueJS

FormVueLate 2.0 (Vue 3)

Dynamic schema-based form rendering for VueJS.

Getting Started

FormVueLate is a zero dependency library that allows you to generate schema-driven forms with extreme ease.

The schema that you use for your form can be as flexible as you need it to be, it can be modified at run-time with an expected reactive result, and can even be fetched directly from you backend’s API.

Important

FormVueLate is a bring-your-own-components library!

We do not provide any base components for your to build your forms. There are numerous component libraries out there that do a great job of providing carefully constructed components for you to use, and FormVueLate does a great job at allowing you to bring those external components to your forms, or even crafting your own.

Installation

To add FormVueLate to your project, start by installing the package through your favorite package manager.

yarn add formvuelate
// OR
npm install formvuelate

Using the SchemaForm component

Now that you have the package in your project, import it to your component.

import { SchemaForm, useSchemaForm } from 'formvuelate'

The SchemaForm requires one prop, schema, which is the meta-data of your form. You must also import the useSchemaForm composable which we will use in our setup function to initialize the form's model where the user's data is kept.

<template>
  <SchemaForm :schema="mySchema" />
</template>

<script>
import { ref } from 'vue'
import { SchemaForm, useSchemaForm } from 'formvuelate'

export default {
  components: { SchemaForm },
  setup () {
    const formModel = ref({})
    useSchemaForm(formModel)

    const mySchema = ref({
      // Schema here
    })

    return {
      mySchema
    }
  }
}
</script>

SchemaForm will automatically update the state within your formModel when your components update.
