Introduction
A JSON schema based form generator, bring your components!
Use any Vue component or HTML element!
There are no prebuilt components for you to puzzle your form together with. Instead you can use any component or element which emits an event, custom or native.
Note that essentially all Vue components that uses
v-model
emits aninput
(or similar) event. See Vue's guide for more info
Installation
Upgrading from v1? Check out the v2 release notes to see if and how migration affects you.
Install from npm

Import to your app
Check out the demos or see a minimal example in the usage instructions to get started.
UMD
If you're using the UMD version you can find more examples in the
examples
folder of the github repo and the UMD demo below.
If you want to use vue-form-json-schema
directly in a browser you can do so by using the UMD version. The UMD version autoinstalls the vue-form-json-schema
component if Vue is found on the window. The entire module is also available on window.VueFormJsonSchema
where the named exports such as for example vfjsFieldMixin
can be accessed.

Demo
Note that all demos use Bootstrap styling, but no styling is included in this package and it is up to you what styles should be used.
The least amount of configuration to render an input
element.
Using Bootstrap classes to show how layout can be different for devices with different screen sizes. In this example two input fields will be wrapped inside a div with col-12 col-sm-6
classes. Try resizing your browser window too see it in action.
Sometimes a field should only be shown if a condition is met. Uses <transition>
to provide animation.
See how to use your own or third party Vue components in vue-form-json-schema

Dependencies

Lodash
get
