dynamic_ui_builder 1.0.3+9

A Flutter package to dynamically build multi-step forms from JSON.

Dynamic UI Builder

A Flutter package to dynamically generate multi-step forms or single fields from JSON configuration. Easily build complex forms with validation, custom layouts, and plugin-based fields.

✨ Features

• Multi-step form UI from JSON
• All standard input fields (Text, Dropdown, Checkbox, Radio, Switch, Slider, Date/Time)
• Plugin-based fields: Image Picker, File Picker, Signature Pad, Rating Bar
• Filter fields with FilterChip UI: Support for both independent (main category) and dependent (subcategory) filters, with dynamic options via optionsMap.
• Global form data store: All form values are managed in a singleton (FormDataStore), accessible app-wide.
• Custom validation (regex, min/max, required, etc.)
• Alignment and layout customization
• Render any single field independently (without JSON)

🚀 Installation

Add to your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  dynamic_ui_builder: ^1.0.3+9

Then run:

flutter pub get

🛠️ Usage

1. Import the package

import 'package:dynamic_ui_builder/dynamic_ui_builder.dart';

2. Define your JSON config (for a full form)

const formJson = [
  {
    "type": "filter",
    "label": "Category",
    "key": "category",
    "filterType": "independent",
    "options": ["Electronics", "Clothing", "Books"],
    "validation": {"required": true}
  },
  {
    "type": "filter",
    "label": "Subcategory",
    "key": "subcategory",
    "filterType": "dependent",
    "dependsOn": "category",
    "optionsMap": {
      "Electronics": ["Mobiles", "Laptops"],
      "Clothing": ["Shirts", "Pants"],
      "Books": ["Fiction", "Non-fiction"]
    },
    "validation": {"required": true}
  },
  // ... other fields ...
];

3. Use DynamicUiBuilder (Multi-step Form)

DynamicUiBuilder(
  jsonConfig: formJson,
  onSubmit: (result) {
    print(result); // result is a Map<String, dynamic>
  },
)

✅ Use Single Field Without JSON

DynamicFormField(
  config: FormFieldConfig(
    type: 'text',
    label: 'Email',
    key: 'email',
    regex: r'^[^@]+@[^@]+\.[^@]+',
    error: 'Invalid email',
  ),
  onSaved: (value) => print('Saved: $value'),
)

🌐 Global Form Data Store

All form values are stored in a singleton:

import 'package:dynamic_ui_builder/src/models/form_data_store.dart';

// Access all form data
topLevelMap = FormDataStore.instance.data;

// Clear all form data
FormDataStore.instance.clear();
