flutter_vali 1.0.0

A comprehensive Flutter package for form validation and input handling, designed to simplify user input management and ensure data integrity in your applications.

Flutter Vali

Flutter Vali is a Dart package for Flutter that provides a set of validation rules to validate form fields easily.

Installation

Add flutter_vali to your pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  flutter_vali: latest_version

Then run flutter pub get to install the package.

Usage

Basic Usage

To use Flutter Vali, you need to create a Validator instance and add validation rules to it. Then, you can use the build method to get a validation function that can be used with Flutter form fields.

Example

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_vali/flutter_vali.dart';

class ExampleFormWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Example Form'),
      ),
      body: Form(
        child: Column(
          children: [
            TextFormField(
              decoration: InputDecoration(
                labelText: 'Enter your name',
              ),
              validator: context.validators([
                notEmptyRule(),
                minLengthRule(3, errorMessage: 'Name must be at least 3 characters long'),
                maxLengthRule(32),
              ]),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Example with fluent validation style

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:flutter_vali/flutter_vali.dart';

class ExampleFormWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(
        title: Text('Example Form'),
      ),
      body: Form(
        child: Column(
          children: [
            TextFormField(
              decoration: InputDecoration(
                labelText: 'Enter your name',
              ),
              validator: context.validator
                .notEmpty()
                .minLength(3, errorMessage: 'Name must be at least 3 characters long')
                .maxLength(32)
                .build()
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Available Validation Rules

Rule	Description
notEmpty({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is not empty.
length({int length, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input length is exactly the specified value.
minLength({int min, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input length is at least the given minimum.
maxLength({int max, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input length is at most the given maximum.
greaterThan({num value, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is greater than the specified value.
greaterThanOrEqual({num value, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is greater than or equal to the specified value.
lessThan({num value, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is less than the specified value.
lessThanOrEqual({num value, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is less than or equal to the specified value.
equalTo({dynamic value, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is equal to the specified value.
between({num min, num max, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is between the two specified values (inclusive).
contains({String substring, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input contains the specified substring.
match({RegExp pattern, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input matches the given regular expression pattern.
startsWith({String prefix, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input starts with the specified substring.
endsWith({String suffix, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input ends with the specified substring.
digitsOnly({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input consists of digits only.
email({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is a valid email address.
phoneNumber({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is a valid phone number.
creditCard({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is a valid credit card number.

notInList({List disallowed, String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is not included in the specified list.
date({String? errorMessage})	Validates that the input is a valid date.

Custom Validation Rules

You can create custom validation rules by extending the ValidatorRule class.

import 'package:flutter/widgets.dart';
import 'package:flutter_vali/flutter_vali';

class CustomRule extends ValidatorRule {
  const CustomRule({super.errorMessage});

  @override
  String? isValid(BuildContext context, String? value) {
    // Custom validation logic
    return value == 'custom'
        ? null
        : errorMessage ??
            defaultMessage[Localizations.localeOf(context).languageCode] ??
            defaultMessage['en'];
  }

  @override
  Map<String, String> get defaultMessage => {
    'en': 'Invalid custom value',
  };
}

extension CustomExtensions on Validator {
  Validator custom({String? errorMessage}) {
    addRule(CustomRule(errorMessage: errorMessage));
    return this;
  }
}
