formElementMutableList.add(
    FormElement().setTitle("Name").setType(FormElement.Type.TEXT).setHint("Enter your name")
)

formElementMutableList.add(
    FormElement().setTitle("Password").setType(FormElement.Type.PASSWORD).setHint("Enter your password")
)

formElementMutableList.add(
    FormElement().setTitle("Email").setType(FormElement.Type.EMAIL).setHint("Enter your email")

        formBuilder.build(formElementMutableList)
    }
}

7. result

Retrieve Values

Values inserted are saved inside a map of the object FormBuilder, using tags as key.

val textValue = formBuilder.formMap.get("tagKey").getValue()

Validation

To make a validation simply call

val isValid = formBuilder.validate()

This will show an error on all forms that has been set as required. It's possible to change error content on each form element.

formObjects.add(FormElement()
      .setTag("tagKey")
      .setHint("Text")
      .setType(FormElement.Type.TEXT)
      .setErrorMessage("You can learn from this error"))

Every form element can accept a customized code for its validation.

val formElement = FormElement().setTag("view").setHint("view").setType(FormElement.Type.TEXTVIEW))
formElement.setFormValidation(object : FormValidation() {
				  
				  override validate(): Boolean {
				      return formElement.getValue().length() > 5;
				  }
			      }
).setErrorMessage("Too short")
