You can install the package using npm or yarn:
npm i form-validation-react
yarn add form-validation-react
To use the library, import it in your React component:
import ValidateForm from "form-validation-react"Then, wrap your form with :
<ValidateForm
onSubmit={(event)=> {
console.log("Form submitted",event);
}}
errorElement="#error_show_element" // optional
rules={{
// add the rules here
}}
>
<form>
<h1 id="error_show_element" > // The error message will appear in this element </h1>
<input type="text" required />
</form>
</ValidateForm>validateRequired: {
action: "show_error_message",
message: "fill all required fields",
applyOnly:["name","password"] // checking only this inputs are filled
notvalidated: (notFilledInputs) => {
console.log("Not filled required inputs",notFilledInputs);
}
onsuccess:()=> {
console.log("All required fields are filled");
}
}If a required input is not filled, the rule will return a callback with an array of the not-filled inputs. You can add the action input_red_border to change the border color of the not-filled inputs to red.

},

console.log("Minimum length exceeded");
}
onsuccess:(validatedInput)=> {
console.log("Length is in range of :",validatedInput);
}
}
<input min={4} max={8} type="number" required />the min in message object is when exceeded minimum the message will show.
the max in message object is when exceeded maximum the message will show

ValidateEmail: {
type: "yahoo",
emailInput: "my_email",
message: "Please enter a valid yahoo email",
onsuccess: () => console.log("Email is valid"),
invalid: () => console.log("Email is invalid"),
when: "onblur",
}<input name="my_email" type="email" required />ValidatePattern:{
input: 'email',
pattern: /^\w+@[a-zA-Z_]+?\.[a-zA-Z]{2,3}$/,
type: 'regex',
when: 'typing',
allowEmpty: false,
onsuccess: (inputElement) => console.log('Validation succeeded!’),
invalid: () => console.log('Validation failed!’),
errorMessage: 'Please enter a valid email address.'
}ValidatePattern:{
pattern: /^\S+@\S+\.\S+$/,
modifiers: 'i',
input: 'email',
type: 'regex',
when: 'typing',
errorMessage: 'Please enter a valid email address',
}ValidatePattern:{
pattern: '*.com',
type: 'wildcard',
modifiers: 'i',
input: 'email-input',
when: 'typing',
errorMessage: 'Please enter an email address ending in .com'
}ValidatePattern:{
pattern: /^\S+@\S+\.\S+$/,
modifiers: 'i',
input: 'email',
type: 'regex',
when: 'typing',
allowEmpty: true,
}We provide two different patterns - a regular expression pattern and a wildcard pattern - along with options for case-insensitivity (modifiers: 'i') and custom error messages.
We also use the allowEmpty option to allow the input to be empty, which can be useful for optional fields.

}The when rule determines when the validation should occur. It can be set to "typing" or "onblur".
The input rule specifies the name of the input field to validate.
The minDate rule specifies the minimum date that is allowed. Dates before this minimum date are considered invalid.
The maxDate rule specifies the maximum date that is allowed. Dates after this maximum date are considered invalid.
The allowOnlyBusinessDay rule determines whether or not only business days are allowed. Business days are weekdays (Monday to Friday).
The allowOnlyWeekend rule determines whether or not only weekends are allowed. Weekends are Saturday and Sunday.
The customFormat rule specifies the custom format for the date. If not specified, the date will be validated in the default format.
The timeZone rule specifies the time zone for the date. If not specified, the date will be validated in the local time zone.
The customErrorMessages rule allows you to specify custom error messages for different validation rules. If not specified, default error messages will be used.

Here is an example of how to use the library in a ReactJS component:
import React from "react";
import ValidateForm from "form-validation-react";
function App() {
return (
<div className="App">
<ValidateForm
rules={{
validateRequired: {
action: "input_red_border",
notvalidated: (notFilledInputs) => {
console.log("Not filled required inputs", notFilledInputs);
}
},
ValidateMinMax: {
when: "onblur"
message : {
min: "Full name must be at least 4 characters",
max: "Full name must be at most 8 characters"
}
}
}}
>
<form>
<input min={4} max={8} type="text" name="full_name" required />
<input required type="text" name="full_name" />
<input required type="email" name="email" />
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
</ValidateForm>
</div>
);

export default App;
