In this article you will learn custom validation rule in Magento 2 form.
In order to demonstrate how to get the forms to be validated, let’s create a validation-free form with some fields. Here is the simple form which consist email text field and submit button.
<form class="form" id="custom-form" method="post" autocomplete="off">
<fieldset class="fieldset">
<legend class="legend"><span><?php echo __('Personal Information') ?></span></legend><br>
<div class="field required">
<label for="email_address" class="label"><span><?php echo __('Email') ?></span></label>
<div class="control">
<input type="email" name="email" id="email_address" value="" title="<?php echo __('Email') ?>" class="input-text" data-validate="{required:true, 'validate-email':true}">
</div>
</div>
</fieldset>
<div class="actions-toolbar">
<div class="primary">
<button type="submit" class="action submit primary" title="<?php echo __('Submit') ?>"><span><?php echo __('Submit') ?></span></button>
</div>
</div>
</form>There are three different ways to use form validation in magento 2
Way One :
<script type="text/x-magento-init">
{
"#custom-form": {
"validation": {"required":true}
}
}
</script>Magento itself often uses the x-magento-init method to invoke a RequireJS module as a program. However, the real power of x-magento-init is the ability to create a Magento Javascript Component.
Magento itself often uses the x-magento-init method to invoke a RequireJS module as a program. However, the real power of x-magento-init is the ability to create a Magento Javascript Component.
Magento Javascript Components are RequireJS modules that return a function.
Magento encounters a text/x-magento-init script tag with an * attribute, it will
1] Initialize the specified RequireJS module (Magento_Ui/js/core/app)
2] Call the function returned by that module, passing in the data object
Way Two :
<form data-mage-init='{"validation": {"required":true}}' class="form" id="custom-form" method="post" autocomplete="off">In addition to <script type="text/x-magento-init">, there’s another way to invoke similar functionality on a specific DOM node, and that’s with the data-mage-init attribute.
Way Three :
<script type="text/javascript">
require([
'jquery',
'mage/mage'
], function($){
var dataForm = $('#custom-form');
dataForm.mage('validation', {"required":true});
});
</script>custom-form is form id you can replace it with your form id.
