LTV Form-Validation

Overview

The FormValidation.js is a JavaScript form validation class that provides a flexible and customizable way to handle form validations. The library provides a set of features to handle form validation, including:

A constructor that initializes form validation with a form selector, configuration options, and optional custom validation rules.
Functions to sanitize input and prevent Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.
Customizable field validation rules, messages, and configurations.
Predefined validation methods and the ability to add custom validation methods.
Error handling and visual feedback for invalid fields.
Support for form submission handling with validation.
Manual validation of the entire form or specific fields.

Note: This library is not a replacement for server-side validation. It is intended to be used as a client-side validation tool to provide a better user experience and reduce the number of requests to the server.

How to use it

1. Installation

Just install it into your project using npm:

npm install @ltvco/form-validation

2. Importing

import { Validation } from '@ltvco/form-validation';

3. Configuration

Then we can set up any configuration options we want to add to our form. This is just an example, but you can find a more in-depth explanation of each of the options in the Configuration Section.

const myConfig = {
  fields: {  // Configuration for each form field
    fieldName: {
      rules: ['rule1', 'rule2', 'rule3'], // Validation rules to add to the field
      inputContainer: '.error-placement-selector', // [Optional] Where to add the errorClass
      errorClass: '.custom-error',  // [Optional] Error class to add to the inputContainer element
      messages: {
        rule1: 'This is a custom error message for rule1',
        rule2: 'This is a custom error message for rule2',
        rule3: 'This is a custom error message for rule3',
      },
    },
    ...
  },
};

4. Adding Custom Rules

You can add custom validation rules by passing them as the third parameter in the constructor.

const myRules = {
  customRule: {
    validator: (field) => field.value.length > 5, // Custom validation function
    message: 'This field must have more than 5 characters', // Custom error message
  },
};

5. Initialization

Finally, we can initialize the Validation object with a form element or selector, a configuration object, and an optional custom rules object:

const myValidation = new Validation('#myForm', myConfig, myRules);

And that's it, the form validation is now ready! Now there are a few other things that the library can do to further customize or help you validate in the way you need to.

6. Add more rules

You can also add or modify rules after initialization using the addMethod function:

myValidation.addMethod(
  'customRule2',
  (field) => field.value !== '',
  'This field cannot be empty'
);

If the rule already exists, you can also modify either the default message or the validation function.

Modify only the validator function of existing rule (without modifying message)

myValidation.addMethod('customRule2', (field) => field.value !== '');

Modify only the default message of existing rule (without modifying the validator)

myValidation.addMethod('customRule2', null, 'This field cannot be empty');

7. Modify rules of fields

The component provides a way to change the rules a field has in case there's something that needs to change dynamically.

Add a rule to a field

myValidation.addFieldRule(
  'fieldName',
  'customRule',
  'This is a custom error message for customRule'
);

Remove a rule to a field

myValidation.removeFieldRule('fieldName', 'customRule');

Replace the rules of a field

myValidation.setFieldRules('fieldName', ['customRule', 'customRule2'], {
  customRule: 'This is a custom error message for customRule',
  customRule2: 'This is a custom error message for customRule2',
});

8. Manual Validation

Last, but not least, the validator also can manually validate the entire form or a specific field, and for both of those, the possibility of doing it silently (no error messages are shown) or explicitly (error messages are shown). By default, the validation is done silently. This section is explained in more detail in the Public Methods Section.

Check if all fields are valid

const isFormValid = myValidation.validateForm();

Check if a specific field is valid

const isFieldValid = myValidation.isFieldValid('myField');

API

Constructor

constructor(form, config, rules);

Parameters

form {HTMLElement | string}: Form element or selector that will be validated.
config {Object}: [Optional] Object containing fields to validate, which rules to apply, and other configurations.
rules {Object}: [Optional] Custom rules to use in validation.

An instance with the validation.

Description

Sets up all variables and configurations for validation to work on a form.

Configuration

const config = {
  validationFlags: ['onSubmit', 'onChange', 'onKeyUpAfterChange'],
  submitCallback: (formObj) => console.log(formObj);
  invalidHandler: (errors) => console.error(errors),
  fields: {
    field1: {
      rules: ['rule1', 'rule2'],
      inputContainer: '.error-placement-selector',
      errorClass: '.custom-error-class',
      validClass: '.custom-valid-class',
      fieldErrorHandler: (field, message) => alert(`The input ${field.name} has an error: ${message}`),
      fieldValidHandler: (field) => alert(`The input ${field.name} is valid!`),
      messages: {
        rule1: 'Custom error message for rule1.',
        rule2: (field) => `rule2 validation has not been met for ${field.name}`,
      }
    }
  },
}

`validationFlags`

Array with triggers that define when will the validator check for the validity of the fields.

Available Flags

Flag	Description
`onChange`	[Default] Validates a field when the `change` event is triggered.
`onKeyUpAfterChange`	[Default] Works the same as the `onKeyUp` flag, however, it's added after the first time the field is changed.
`onSubmit`	[Default] Validates all fields before the form is submitted.
`onKeyUp`	Validates a field when the `keyup` event is triggered on the field. This is only added to inputs that can be written on. (`text`, `date`, etc.)

Default Value

validationFlags: ['onChange', 'onKeyUpAfterChange', 'onSubmit'];

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  validationFlags: ['onKeyUp', 'onSubmit'],
  ...
}

`submitCallback`

Function to be called when the form is submitted successfully. It's important to mention that by default, the inputs will be sanitized before calling this function.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`formObject`	`Object`	An object containing all the key-value pairs of each of the inputs. The field's `name` will be the key and the `value` will be whatever the user set as input.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	The reference to the form `element` where the validation is being applied.

Default Value

submitCallback: (formObj, form) => form.submit();

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  submitCallback: function(formObject, form) {
    form.classList.add('is-loading');
    return fetch('http://my.api.com/url', {
      headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      },
      method: 'POST',
      body: JSON.stringify(formObject)
    }).then((response) => {
      console.log(response);
      form.classList.remove('is-loading');
    })
  },
  ...
}

`invalidHandler`

Function to be called when the form is submitted with errors.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`errors`	`Array<[HTMLElement, string]>`	An array containing all the errors found inside the form. Each element of the array is a tuple with the `input` as an `HTMLElement` and the `errorMessage` as a `string`.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	The reference to the form `element` where the validation is being applied.

Default Value

invalidHandler: () => {};

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  invalidHandler: function(errors, form) {
    const formErrorsSection = form.querySelector('.js-error-section');
    formErrorsSection.innerHTML = '';

    errors.forEach([field, errorMessage] => {
      const errorElement = document.createElement('li');
      errorElement.innerHTML = errorMessage;

      formErrorsSection.appendChild(errorElement);
    });
  },
  ...
}

`fields`

An object where we configure each of the fields we want to validate, along with each of the rules we want to add to the field. The key of each object must match the name of an input.

Structure

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'zipCode': {
      rules: ['required', 'characterAmount(5,9)', 'numbersOnly', ...],
      messages: {
        'required': 'Please enter a valid zip code.',
        'characterAmount': function(field, ...args) { return `Zip code must have between ${args[0]} and ${args[1]} characters.` },
      },
      inputContainer: '.input-container',
      errorClass: 'zip-error',
      errorElement: 'span',
      validClass: 'zip-valid',
      fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality: true,
      fieldErrorHandler: function(field, message, fieldConfig, form) {
        ...
      },
      fieldValidHandler: function(field, fieldConfig, form) {
        ...
      },
    },
    'state': {
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`rules`

An array with all the rules to validate for each of the fields. The order of the array is important as well, as the validator will prioritize rules in ascending order, meaning the smaller the index, the higher priority it has.

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'fn': {
      rules: ['required', ...],
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`messages`

An object containing any messages to be overwritten with a custom error message. Each object key must match a rule name. The value can either be a string or a function that resolves to a string.

Something to keep in mind is that as of now, if the message is a function, the function will resolve when the Form Validator is initialized, and not each time the input is validated.

It's also important to know that the messages are added to the DOM as innerHTML and not innerText, so you can add custom styling and HTML tags to the messages.

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'email': {
      rules: ['required', 'validEmail', 'maxCharacterAmount(100)', ...],
      messages: {
        'required': 'Please enter a valid email address.',
        'maxCharacterAmount': function(field, ...args) { return `Email address can't be over ${args[0]} characters long.` }
        ...
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`optional`

Boolean to define if the field is optional or not. If true, the field will be marked as optional and won't be validated if it's empty. If false, the field will be marked as required and will be validated even if it's empty.

A few things to keep in mind:

If no optional flag is passed and the required rule is not present, the field will be marked as optional.
If no optional flag is passed and the required rule is present, the field will be marked as not optional.
If an optional flag is passed as true and the rules also include the required rule, the required rule will have priority and the field will be marked as not optional instead.
Finally, if an optional flag is passed as false and the required rule is not present, the required rule will be automatically added.

Default value: false

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    email: {
      optional: true,
      rules: ['validEmail', 'maxCharacterAmount(100)', ...],
      messages: {
        'required': 'Please enter a valid email address.',
        'maxCharacterAmount': function(field, ...args) { return `Email address can't be over ${args[0]} characters long.` }
        ...
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`inputContainer`

A string with a selector matching one of the field's parents where the errorClass will be added when the field is invalid. If the selector doesn't match any of the field's parents, the errorClass will be placed on the parent element.

Default Value: input.parentElement

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'ln': {
      inputContainer: '.input-container',
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`errorPlacement`

Function to be called when the error element is created. The function receives the input element and the error element (not yet attached to the DOM) as parameters. The function is expected to add the error element to the DOM.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`input`	`HTMLElement`	The reference to the `input` element that throws the error.
`errorElement`	`HTMLElement`	An `HTMLElement` with the error message that has yet to be added to the DOM.
`inputContainer`	`HTMLElement`	The reference to the `inputContainer` element.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	A reference to the `form` element where the validation is being applied.

Default Value:

  errorPlacement: (input, errorElement) => input.parentElement!.appendChild(errorElement),

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'fn': {
      errorPlacement: (input, errorElement) => input.after(errorElement),
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`errorClass`

A string with a class that will be added to the inputContainer element when the field is invalid. By default, the class error is added when the field is invalid.

It's also important to note that the class error will also be added to the input itself as well, however this class isn't modified by the errorClass property.

Default Value: error

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'zipcode': {
      errorClass: 'zip-error',
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`errorTag`

A string of the element tag in which the error will be displayed. An element of the type errorTag will be created and placed as the last child of the inputContainer element. It will always have the class error.

Default Value: p

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'ln': {
      errorTag: 'span',
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`validClass`

A string of the class name that will be added to the inputContainer element when the input is valid. By default, the class valid is added when the field is valid.

Like with the error class, it's important to note that the class valid will also be added to the input itself as well, however this class isn't modified by the validClass property.

Default Value: 'valid'

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'fn': {
      validClass: 'success',
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`normalizer`

This function serves the purpose of adjusting the value in any way before it's validated. This function is destructive so it will change the value of the input. If the function is present, it will be added to the onKeyDown event to writeable inputs (text, password, email, etc.), or onChange to all other inputs before being validated.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`value`	`string`	The current `value` of the `input` to be normalized.
`input`	`HTMLElement`	The reference to the `input` element.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	A reference to the `form` element where the validation is being applied.

Default Value:

  normalizer: (value, input, form) => {},

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'vin': {
      normalizer: (value, input, form) => value.toUpperCase(),
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`fieldErrorHandler`

Function to be called when the field is validated and it has errors. There's 2 ways to use this function, either you can use it to completely replace the default functionality, or you can use it to add your own functionality on top of the default one. This is done with the fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality property, which if true will keep the default functionality, and if false will replace it.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`input`	`HTMLElement`	The reference to the `input` throwing the error.
`message`	`string`	Error message to be displayed.
`fieldConfig`	`Object`	An object with the config options that this field was initialized with.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	A reference to the `form` element where the validation is being applied.

Default Functionality:

function onError(field, fieldConfig) {
  this.errors.push([field, message]);
  const { optional, errorClass, inputContainer, validClass } = fieldConfig;

  // Here the 'fieldErrorHandler' would be called if present, and replace the default functionality if 'fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality' is set to false.
  // if (fieldConfig.fieldErrorHandler) {
  //   fieldConfig.fieldErrorHandler(field, message, fieldConfig, this.form);
  //   return;
  // }

  // If there's no error element yet, create it.
  if (!this.form.querySelector(`.${field.name}-error-element`)) this.createError(field, fieldConfig);

  const inputParent =
    typeof inputContainer === 'string' ?
    (field.closest(inputContainer) as HTMLElement) :
    inputContainer || (field.parentElement as HTMLElement);

  if ((optional && field.value) || !optional) {
    const errorElement = this.form.querySelector(`.${field.name}-error-element`) as HTMLElement;

    errorElement.innerHTML = message;
    errorElement.style.display = 'block';

    inputParent.classList.add(errorClass || 'error');
    field.classList.add('error');
  }

  // Remove Valid Class if present
  inputParent.classList.remove(validClass || 'valid');
  field.classList.remove('valid');

  // Finally, if the 'fieldErrorHandler' is present and the 'fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality' is set to true, here it would be called, adding any extra functionality on top of the default one.
  // if (fieldConfig.fieldErrorHandler && fieldConfig.fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality) {
  //   fieldConfig.fieldErrorHandler(field, message, fieldConfig, this.form);
  // }
}

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'vin': {
      fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality: true,
      fieldErrorHandler: (input, message, fieldConfig, form) => {
        // Focus input on error
        input.focus();

        // Add error class to form
        form.classList.add('has-errors');
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`fieldValidHandler`

Function to be called when the field is validated and it passes all the rules. Similarly to the fieldErrorHandler, there's 2 ways to use this function, either you can use it to completely replace the default functionality, or you can use it to add your own functionality on top of the default one. This is done with the fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality property, which if true will keep the default functionality, and if false will replace it.

Available Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`input`	`HTMLElement`	The reference to the `input` element that passed validations.
`fieldConfig`	`Object`	An object with the config options that this field was initialized with.
`form`	`HTMLFormElement`	A reference to the `form` element where the validation is being applied.

Default Functionality:

function onValid(field, fieldConfig) {
  const { optional, errorClass, inputContainer, validClass } = fieldConfig;
  this.errors = this.errors.filter(([errorField]) => errorField !== field);

  // Here the 'fieldValidHandler' would be called if present, and replace the default functionality if 'fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality' is set to false.
  // if (fieldConfig.fieldValidHandler) {
  //   fieldConfig.fieldValidHandler(field, fieldConfig, this.form);
  //   return;
  // }

  const inputParent =
    typeof inputContainer === 'string' ?
    (field.closest(inputContainer) as HTMLElement) :
    inputContainer || (field.parentElement as HTMLElement);
  const errorElement = this.form.querySelector(`.${field.name}-error-element`) as HTMLElement;

  inputParent.classList.remove(errorClass || 'error');
  field.classList.remove('error');

  if (errorElement) errorElement.style.display = 'none';

  if (!optional || (optional && field.value)) {
    inputParent.classList.add(validClass || 'valid');
    field.classList.add('valid');
  } else {
    inputParent.classList.remove(validClass || 'valid');
    field.classList.remove('valid');
  }

  // Finally, if the 'fieldValidHandler' is present and the 'fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality' is set to true, here it would be called, adding any extra functionality on top of the default one.
  // if (fieldConfig.fieldValidHandler && fieldConfig.fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality) {
  //   fieldConfig.fieldValidHandler(field, message, fieldConfig, this.form);
  // }
}

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'vin': {
      fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality: true,
      fieldValidHandler: (input, fieldConfig, form) => {
        // Remove error class to form
        form.classList.remove('has-errors');
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

`fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality`

Boolean to define if the default functionality of the fieldErrorHandler and fieldValidHandler should be kept or not. If true, the default functionality will be kept, and if false it will be replaced.

Default Value: false

Usage

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'vin': {
      fieldHandlerKeepFunctionality: true,
      fieldErrorHandler: (input, message, fieldConfig, form) => {
        // Focus input on error
        input.focus();

        // Add error class to form
        form.classList.add('has-errors');
      },
      fieldValidHandler: (input, fieldConfig, form) => {
        // Remove error class to form
        form.classList.remove('has-errors');
      },
      ...
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

Dynamic Rules

There's also a way to add dynamic rules, where we can pass arguments to the rule's validator. This way we can have rules that differ in just a certain variable without having to have a rule for each of the variants.

So a use case for this is for example if we want a rule to limit the amount of characters inside a field. Then on our form, we have one field that can have a maximum amount of characters to 5, and another one that can have a maximum amount of 10 characters. Instead of creating 2 different rules, we can have a single rule that takes in the number of characters as a parameter.

So the way this works is you define a rule like normal, but pass the parameters as a third argument when calling the validator. This also applies to the message, as the parameters will be passed to the function, but it's not a requirement.

{
  ...,
  characterAmount: {
    validator: function (element, value, ...args) {
      const [min, max] = args;
      return value.length >= parseInt(min) && value.length <= parseInt(max);
    },
    message: function (element, ...args) {
      const [min, max] = args;
      return `Please enter a minimum of ${min} and a maximum of ${max} characters.`;
    },
  },
  ...,
}

The way to use it is to call it with the wanted parameters in the rules array in the configuration. In this case, it would be as follows:

const myConfig = {
  ...
  fields: {
    'zipcode': {
      rules: ['characterAmount(5, 9)', ...],
    },
    ...
  }
  ...
}

Default Rules

The validator comes with a predefined amount of rules ready to be used.

Name	Description	Error Message
`required`	Value must not be empty or contain only spaces	This field is required
`notEmail`	Value must not be an email	Email addresses are not searchable here
`validEmail`	Value must have a correct email format.	Please enter a valid email address in the format of `example@test.com`
`noSpecialCharacters`	Value must not contain any of the following characters: `[$-/:-?{-~!"^_`[]`	Special characters are not allowed
`noEmptySpacesOnly`	Value must not be just empty spaces	Empty spaces are not allowed
`emptyOrLetters`	Value must either be empty or contain letters only	Alphabetic characters required
`onlyAlphanumeric`	Value must be alphabetic characters only	Only alphanumeric values are allowed
`phoneUS`	Value must have the structure of a common US phone	Please specify a valid phone number
`numbersOnly`	Value must contain numeric values only	Only numeric values are allowed
`lettersOnly`	Value must contain alphabetic values only	Only alphabetic characters are allowed
`characterAmount`	Value's length must be between `min` and `max`	Please enter a minimum of `min` and a maximum of `max` characters
`maxCharacterAmount`	Value's length must be a maximum of `max` characters	Please enter a maximum of `max` characters
`minCharacterAmount`	Value's length must be at least `min` characters long	Please enter a minimum of `min` characters

Public Methods

`isValid()`

Function to check if all fields in the form are valid. This doesn't re-validate fields, it just checks if there are any errors in the form from the previous validation done, but if some of the fields have not been validated, it's better to use the validateForm section.

Returns boolean: True if all the fields are valid, false otherwise.

Usage

if (myValidation.isValid()) {
  console.log('The form is valid');
} else {
  console.log('The form is invalid');
}

`validateForm(silently)`

This function forces all the fields to be validated. A flag can be passed to display errors or not.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
`silently`	`boolean`	`true`	[Optional] If the value is true, error messages won't be displayed, false means they will be displayed.

Returns boolean: True if all the fields are valid, false otherwise.

Usage

const isFormValid = myValidation.validateForm();

`isFieldValid(field, silently)`

This function forces a specific field to be validated. A flag can be passed to display errors or not.

Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description | | ---------- | ------------ | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | field | HTMLElement | string | | [Required] The field to validate. Can be either an HTMLElement or a string with the name of the field. | | silently | boolean | true | [Optional] If the value is true, error messages won't be displayed, false means they will be displayed. |

Returns boolean: True if the field is valid, false otherwise.

Usage

const isFieldValid = myValidation.isFieldValid('myField');

`addMethod(name, validator, message)`
