Chakra+Formik Integration Experiment

What is this?

This project is a prototype for a Chakra UI+Formik integration library.

The goals of this project:

  • provide an API that is familiar to both Chakra UI and Formik users
  • experiment with and establish patterns that can eventually be turned into an official Chakra UI extension library

As this is a pre-1.0 experiment, the API is subject to change.

Demo

Check out this CodeSandbox for a demonstration of the components in action: https://codesandbox.io/s/interesting-blackburn-oldox?file=/src/App.tsx

Installation

Install Chakra UI and Formik, then:

# with yarn
yarn add chakra-formik-experiment

# with npm
npm install chakra-formik-experiment

Usage

chakra-formik-experiment works by connecting Chakra form components to a Formik form's context using the name prop.

The name prop can be passed directly to the library's form components or provided to them by the FieldControl component.

As individual fields

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { InputFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const Example = () => (
  <Formik>
    <InputFormik id="name" name="name" placeholder="Enter your name" />
  </Formik>
)

With FieldControl

FieldControl provides the same behavior as Chakra's FormControl, but automatically connects wrapped form elements and FieldErrorMessage components with Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { FormLabel } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import {
  FieldControl,
  FieldErrorMessage,
  InputFormik,
} from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const Example = () => (
  <FieldControl id="name" name="name">
    <FormLabel>Name</FormLabel>
    <InputFormik />
    <FieldErrorMessage />
  </FieldControl>
)

Components

CheckboxFormik

The CheckboxFormik component is Chakra's Checkbox component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { CheckboxFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const CheckboxFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ checkbox: true }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <CheckboxFormik name="checkbox" />
  </Formik>
)

CheckboxGroupFormik

The CheckboxGroupFormik component is Chakra's CheckboxGroup component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

Note: Use the regular Chakra Checkbox component within CheckboxGroupFormik. We could eventually make CheckboxFormik work with it.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { Checkbox } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import { CheckboxGroupFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const CheckboxGroupFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ radio: "A" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <CheckboxGroupFormik name="radio">
      <Checkbox value="A">A</Checkbox>
      <Checkbox value="B">B</Checkbox>
    </CheckboxGroupFormik>
  </Formik>
)

InputFormik

The InputFormik component is Chakra's Input component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { InputFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const InputFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ name: "name" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <InputFormik name="name" />
  </Formik>
)

RadioFormik

The RadioFormik component is Chakra's Radio component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { RadioFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const RadioFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ radio: "A" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <RadioFormik name="radio" value="A">
      A
    </RadioFormik>
    <RadioFormik name="radio" value="B">
      B
    </RadioFormik>
  </Formik>
)

RadioGroupFormik

The RadioGroupFormik component is Chakra's RadioGroup component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

Note: Use the regular Chakra Radio component within RadioGroupFormik. We could eventually make RadioFormik work with it.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { Radio } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import { RadioGroupFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const RadioGroupFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ radio: "A" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <RadioGroupFormik name="radio">
      <Radio value="A">A</Radio>
      <Radio value="B">B</Radio>
    </RadioGroupFormik>
  </Formik>
)

SelectFormik

The SelectFormik component is Chakra's Select component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { SelectFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const SelectFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ item: "A" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <SelectFormik name="item">
      <option value="A">A</option>
      <option value="B">B</option>
    </SelectFormik>
  </Formik>
)

EditableFormik

The EditableFormik component is Chakra's Editable component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { EditableFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"
import { EditablePreview, EditableInput } from "@chakra-ui/react"

const EditableFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ name: "Kenichi" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <EditableFormik name="name">
      <EditablePreview />
      <EditableInput />
    </EditableFormik>
  </Formik>
)

FieldControl

The FieldControl component has the same API and behavior as FormControl, except that the name prop is used to connect the form element(s) to Formik. This allows you to provide the same accessible form element experience you get from FormControl, with the added benefit that form elements and FieldErrorMessage are automatically associated with a Formik field.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { FormLabel } from "@chakra-ui/react"
import {
  FieldControl,
  FieldErrorMessage,
  InputFormik,
} from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const Example = () => (
  <FieldControl id="name" name="name">
    <FormLabel>Name</FormLabel>
    <InputFormik />
    <FieldErrorMessage />
  </FieldControl>
)

Note: If a prop exists on both the FieldControl and the form element component, the prop of the component will be used.

// in this example, the input is connected to Formik as `"component"`
const Example = () => (
  <FieldControl name="control">
    <InputFormik name="component">
  </FieldControl>
)

FieldErrorMessage

The FieldErrorMessage component works similarly to the Chakra FormErrorMessage component, except it is automatically connected to the touched and error state of the field, meaning that if the field has been touched and has a validation error, that error message will be displayed.

const FieldErrorMessageExample = () => (
  <FieldControl name="name">
    <InputFormik />
    <FieldErrorMessage />
  </FieldControl>
)

Note: This behavior will not occur if an isInvalid prop is passed to FieldControl.

// in this example, the error message is never displayed because
// `isInvalid={false}` is passed to `FieldControl`
const Example = () => (
  <FieldControl name="name" isInvalid={false}>
    <InputFormik />
    <FieldErrorMessage />
  </FieldControl>
)

NumberInputFormik

The NumberInputFormik component is Chakra's NumberInput component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop. The value is formatted as a number when the form is submitted.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { NumberInputFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const NumberInputFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ number: 123 }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <NumberInputFormik name="number">
      <NumberInputField />
      <NumberInputStepper>
        <NumberIncrementStepper />
        <NumberDecrementStepper />
      </NumberInputStepper>
    </NumberInputForm>
  </Formik>
)

SwitchFormik

The SwitchFormik component is Chakra's Switch component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop. The value is formatted as a number when the form is submitted.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { SwitchFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const SwitchFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ switch: true }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <SwitchFormik name="switch" />
  </Formik>
)

TextareaFormik

The TextareaFormik component is Chakra's Textarea component except it's automatically connected to Formik via the name prop.

import * as React from "react"
import { Formik } from "formik"
import { TextareaFormik } from "chakra-formik-experiment"

const TextareaFormikExample = () => (
  <Formik initialValues={{ name: "name" }} onSubmit={console.log}>
    <TextareaFormik name="name" />
  </Formik>
)
