RecursionForms

Build Status

Demo: https://yiqu.github.io/recursion-ng-forms/

Form Structure:

  • Address (form control)

  • Year (form control)

  • Habitant (form group)

    • habitantName (form control)
    • age (form control)
    • dependents (form array)
      • The dependents array contains form groups that has a 'dependent_type' form control. The 'dependent_type' is a selection of 3 possible values: deceased, pet, or habitant. If habitant is chosen, display the Habitant form group again explained here.

The dependents form array could contain a Habitant, which in turn contains dependents which could contain Habitants. Thus a recursion is needed for creating and displaying the form.

Example result:

{
   "address":"1000 Friendly St.",
   "year":"2021",
   "habitant":{
      "habitantName":"Fist hab name",
      "age":"First hab age",
      "dependents":[
         {
            "dependent_type":"animal",
            "petName":"First hab's animal name"
         },
         {
            "dependent_type":"habitant",
            "habitant":{
               "habitantName":"Second hab name",
               "age":"Second hab age",
               "dependents":[
                  {
                     "dependent_type":"habitant",
                     "habitant":{
                        "habitantName":"Third hab name",
                        "age":"Third hab age",
                        "dependents":[
                           {
                              "dependent_type":"deceased"
                           },
                           {
                              "dependent_type":"habitant",
                              "habitant":{
                                 "habitantName":"Fourth hab name",
                                 "age":"Fourth hab age",

                                 ]
