Angular module of JSON Forms
npm install @jsonforms/angular_Complex forms in the blink of an eye_
JSON Forms eliminates the tedious task of writing fully-featured forms by hand by leveraging the capabilities of JSON, JSON Schema and Javascript.
This is the JSON Forms Angular package which provides the necessary bindings for Angular. It uses JSON Forms Core.
You can combine the Angular package with any Angular-based renderer set you want, for example the Material Renderers.
See the official documentation and the JSON Forms Angular seed repository for examples on how to integrate JSON Forms with your application.
Check
Use the JsonForms component to render a form for your data.
Mandatory props:
- data: any - the data to show
- renderers: JsonFormsRendererRegistryEntry[] - the Angular renderer set to use
Optional props:
- schema: JsonSchema - the data schema for the given data. Will be generated when not given.
- uischema: UISchemaElement - the UI schema for the given data schema. Will be generated when not given.
- config: any - form-wide options. May contain default ui schema options.
- readonly: boolean - whether all controls shall be readonly.
- uischemas: JsonFormsUiSchemaEntry[] - registry for dynamic ui schema dispatching
- validationMode: 'ValidateAndShow' | 'ValidateAndHide' | 'NoValidation' - the validation mode for the form
- ajv: AJV - custom Ajv instance for the form
- middleware: Middleware - can be used to hook into the form-wide data management.
- i18n: JsonFormsI18nState - can be used to internationalize the rendered form.
- dataChange - event emitter which is called on each data change, containing the updated data and the validation result.
- errors - event emitter which is called with all validations errors.
Example component file app.component.ts:
``ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { angularMaterialRenderers } from '@jsonforms/angular-material';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
template:
[schema]="schema"
[uischema]="uischema"
[renderers]="renderers"
>,`
})
export class AppComponent {
renderers = angularMaterialRenderers;
uischema = {
type: 'VerticalLayout',
elements: [
{
type: 'Control',
label: false,
scope: '#/properties/done',
},
{
type: 'Control',
scope: '#/properties/name',
},
{
type: 'HorizontalLayout',
elements: [
{
type: 'Control',
scope: '#/properties/due_date',
},
{
type: 'Control',

};
schema = {
type: 'object',
