Wouldn't it be great if you could just use your back end to validate forms on the front end? This package provides a Form
class does exactly that. It can post itself to a configured endpoint and manage errors. The class meant to be used with a Laravel back end.
Take a look at the usage section to view a detailed example on how to use it.
The code of this package is based on the Object-Oriented Forms lesson in the Vue 2.0 series on Laracasts.

You can install the package via yarn:

Or via npm:

You find an example implementation with Laravel and Vue in the spatie/form-backend-validation-example-app repo.
import Form from 'form-backend-validation';
// instantiate a form class with some value
const form = new Form({
field1: 'value 1',
field2: 'value 2',
person: {
first_name: 'John',
last_name: 'Doe',
},
});
// a form can also be initiated with an array
const form = new Form(['field1', 'field2']);
// submitting the form, you can also use `.put`, `.patch` and `.delete`
form.post(anUrl)
.then(response => ...)
.catch(response => ...);
// returns true if request is being executed
form.processing;
// if there were any errors, you can get to them easily
// example errors object
{
'field1': ['Value is required'], // single field
'person.first_name': ['Value is required'], // field in person object
}
// returns an object in which the keys are the field names
// and the values array with error message sent by the server
form.errors.all()
// returns true if there were any error
form.errors.any();
// returns true if there is an error for the given field name or object
form.errors.has(key)
// returns an array with errors for the given field name
form.errors.get(key)
// clear all errors
form.errors.clear()
// clear the error of the given field name or all errors on the given object
form.errors.clear(key)
