# JSON Forms - More Forms. Less Code

_Complex forms in the blink of an eye_

JSON Forms eliminates the tedious task of writing fully-featured forms by hand by leveraging the capabilities of JSON, JSON Schema and Javascript.

## Angular Material Renderers Package

This is the JSONForms Angular Material renderers package. This package only contains renderers and must be combined with [JSON Forms Angular](https://github.com/eclipsesource/jsonforms/blob/master/packages/angular).

See the official [documentation](https://jsonforms.io/docs/integrations/angular) and the JSON Forms Angular [seed repository](https://github.com/eclipsesource/jsonforms-angular-seed) for examples on how to integrate JSON Forms with your application.

Check <https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=%40jsonforms> for all published JSON Forms packages.

### Quick start

Install JSON Forms Core, Angular and Angular Material Renderers

```bash
npm i --save @jsonforms/core @jsonforms/angular @jsonforms/angular-material
```

Use the `json-forms` component for each form you want to render and hand over the renderer set.

Example component file `app.component.ts`:

```ts
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { angularMaterialRenderers } from '@jsonforms/angular-material';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  template: `<jsonforms
    [data]="data"
    [schema]="schema"
    [uischema]="uischema"
    [renderers]="renderers"
  ></jsonforms>`,
})
export class AppComponent {
  renderers = angularMaterialRenderers;
  uischema = {
    type: 'VerticalLayout',
    elements: [
      {
        type: 'Control',
        label: false,
        scope: '#/properties/done',
      },
      {
        type: 'Control',
        scope: '#/properties/name',
      },
      {
        type: 'HorizontalLayout',
        elements: [
          {
            type: 'Control',
            scope: '#/properties/due_date',
          },
          {
            type: 'Control',
            scope: '#/properties/recurrence',
          },
        ],
      },
    ],
  };
  schema = {
    type: 'object',
    properties: {
      name: {
        type: 'string',
        minLength: 1,
      },
      done: {
        type: 'boolean',
      },
      due_date: {
        type: 'string',
        format: 'date',
      },
      recurrence: {
        type: 'string',
        enum: ['Never', 'Daily', 'Weekly', 'Monthly'],
      },
    },
    required: ['name', 'due_date'],
  };
  data = {};
}
```

Example module file `app.module.ts`:

```ts
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { JsonFormsModule } from '@jsonforms/angular';
import { JsonFormsAngularMaterialModule } from '@jsonforms/angular-material';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';

@NgModule({
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    BrowserAnimationsModule,
    JsonFormsModule,
    JsonFormsAngularMaterialModule,
  ],
  schemas: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
})
export class AppModule {}
```
