FormPush

Renders a button that will push items to an array value in the form store when clicked.

The name prop needs to be provided to identify the array field. The value prop is required to define the value that will be added to the array.

By default, the newly added input will be automatically focused when the button is clicked unless the autoFocusOnClick prop is set to false.

Code examples

const form = useFormStore({
languages: ["JavaScript", "PHP"],
},
});
const values = form.useState("values");
<Form store={form}>
{values.languages.map((_, i) => (
<FormInput key={i} name={form.names.languages[i]} />
))}
<FormPush name={form.names.languages} value="">
Add new language
</Form>

Required Props


name

StringLike

Name of the array field. This can either be a string or a reference to a field name from the names object in the store, for type safety.


value

unknown

Value that will initially be assigned to the array item when it's pushed.

Optional Props


accessibleWhenDisabled

boolean | undefined

Indicates whether the element should be focusable even when it is disabled.

This is important when discoverability is a concern. For example:

A toolbar in an editor contains a set of special smart paste functions that are disabled when the clipboard is empty or when the function is not applicable to the current content of the clipboard. It could be helpful to keep the disabled buttons focusable if the ability to discover their functionality is primarily via their presence on the toolbar.

Live examples


autoFocus

boolean | undefined = false

Automatically focuses the element upon mounting, similar to the native autoFocus prop. This addresses an issue where the element with the native autoFocus attribute might receive focus before React effects are executed.

The autoFocus prop can also be used with Focusable elements within a Dialog component, establishing the initial focus as the dialog opens.

Note: For this prop to work, the focusable prop must be set to true, if it's not set by default.

Live examples


autoFocusOnClick

boolean | undefined = true

Whether the newly added input should be automatically focused when the button is clicked.


clickOnEnter

boolean | undefined = true

If set to true, pressing the enter key while this element is focused will trigger a click on the element, regardless of whether it's a native button or not. If this prop is set to false, pressing enter will not initiate a click.


clickOnSpace

boolean | undefined = true

If set to true, pressing and releasing the space key while this element is focused will trigger a click on the element, regardless of whether it's a native button or not. If this prop is set to false, space will not initiate a click.


disabled

boolean | undefined = false

Determines if the element is disabled. This sets the aria-disabled attribute accordingly, enabling support for all elements, including those that don't support the native disabled attribute.

This feature can be combined with the accessibleWhenDisabled prop to make disabled elements still accessible via keyboard.

Note: For this prop to work, the focusable prop must be set to true, if it's not set by default.

Live examples


focusable

boolean | undefined = true

Determines if Focusable features should be active on non-native focusable elements.

Note: This prop only turns off the additional features provided by the Focusable component. Non-native focusable elements will lose their focusability entirely. However, native focusable elements will retain their inherent focusability, but without added features such as improved autoFocus, accessibleWhenDisabled, onFocusVisible, etc.


getItem

((props: CollectionStoreItem) => CollectionStoreItem) | undefined

A memoized function that returns props to be passed with the item during its registration in the store.

Code examples

const getItem = useCallback((data) => ({ ...data, custom: true }), []);
<CollectionItem getItem={getItem} />

id

string | undefined

The unique ID of the item. This will be used to register the item in the store and for the element's id attribute. If not provided, a unique ID will be automatically generated.

Live examples


onFocusVisible

BivariantCallback<(event: React.SyntheticEvent<HTMLElement, Event>) => void> | undefined

Custom event handler invoked when the element gains focus through keyboard interaction or a key press occurs while the element is in focus. This is the programmatic equivalent of the data-focus-visible attribute.

Note: For this prop to work, the focusable prop must be set to true, if it's not set by default.

Live examples


render

RenderProp<React.HTMLAttributes<any> & { ref?: React.Ref<any> | undefined; }> | React.ReactElement<any, string | React.JSXElementConstructor<any>> | undefined

Allows the component to be rendered as a different HTML element or React component. The value can be a React element or a function that takes in the original component props and gives back a React element with the props merged.

Check out the Composition guide for more details.


shouldRegisterItem

boolean | undefined = true

Whether the item should be registered as part of the collection.


store

FormStore<FormStoreValues> | undefined

Object returned by the useFormStore hook. If not provided, the closest Form or FormProvider components' context will be used.
