I have implemented a JS class with the following code:
class Field {
public Value = null;
public Items = [];
public UniqueKey = null;
public getItems() {
let items = [...this.Items];
items = items.filter((item) => {
if (item.VisibleIf) {
const matched = item.VisibleIf.match(/\$\[input:(.*?)\]/g);
if (matched?.length) {
const srv = Service.getInstance();
for (let match of matched) {
match = match.slice(8, -1);
if (srv.Fields?.length) {
let found = srv.Fields.find((x) => x.UniqueKey === match);
if (found) {
item.VisibleIf = item.VisibleIf.replace(
`$[input:${match}]`,
found.Value ?? ''
);
return JSON.parse('' + eval(item.VisibleIf));
}
}
}
}
}
return true;
});
return items;
}
public getInputTitle() {
let title = this.Title;
const matched = title.match(/\$\[input:(.*?)\]/g);
if (matched?.length && title) {
const srv = Service.getInstance();
for (let match of matched) {
match = match.slice(8, -1);
if (srv.Fields?.length) {
let found = srv.Fields.find((x) => x.UniqueKey === match);
if (found) {
title = title.replace(`$[input:${match}]`, found.Value ?? '');
}
}
}
}
return title;
}
}
Now I am working on a Vue component:
<div v-for="Field in Fields" :key="Field.UniqueKey">
<v-select
v-if="Field.Type == 'Select'"
:label="Field.getInputTitle()"
v-model="Field.Value"
:items="Field.getItems()"
item-text="Value"
item-value="Id"
/>
<v-input
v-else-if="Field.Type == 'Input'"
v-model="Field.Value"
:label="Field.getInputTitle()"
/>
</div>
// JS
const srv = Service.getInstance();
Fields = srv.getFields(); // <- API call will be there.
The data is fetched from an API and has Title as Input $[input:uniqueKey]. The component loops over the data to generate fields. The getInputTitle function in the Field class works effectively. When typing into a field that other fields are dependent on, they change accordingly based on the $[input:uniqueKey] pattern.
A similar concept is applied in the getItems function, where upon typing into a field that exists in the VisibleIf property of the Items, such as '$[input:uniqueKey] < 1' or any valid JavaScript expression evaluated by eval. However, the getItems function is only called once during page load, unlike the getInputTitle which is called every time a user types into a field.
If more information is needed, feel free to ask. Appreciating any solutions. Thank you.
