A JavaScript library used to make modifications to SharePoint's list forms (NewForm.aspx and EditForm.aspx in a survey, custom list or library). SPUtility.js works with SharePoint 2007, 2010, and 2013.

This library depends on jQuery (tested with v1.9.0+). I recommend using version 1.x of jQuery in order to support older versions of IE.

Upload jQuery and SPUtility into a Document Library in your SharePoint site.

Edit the SharePoint form you wish to modify and add a Content Editor Web Part with the following script inside of it:

<script src="/site/Files/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="/site/Files/sputility.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(window).load(function () {
   // TODO: Your scripts go here!

   // EXAMPLE: Set the value of the Title field to Hello world!
   SPUtility.GetSPField('Title').SetValue('Hello world!');
});
</script>

Documentation was migrated from Codeplex to Markdown files in this repo: https://github.com/kitmenke/sputility/blob/master/WikiFiles/docs/

// Set the value of the Title field to Hello world!
SPUtility.GetSPField('Title').SetValue('Hello world!');

// Get the value of the Title field
SPUtility.GetSPField('Title').GetValue(); // returns "Hello world!"

// Make the Title field read only
SPUtility.GetSPField('Title').MakeReadOnly();

// Hide the entire row from view
SPUtility.GetSPField('Title').Hide();

// You can also set a variable to the returned field
var fTitle = SPUtility.GetSPField('Title');
fTitle.SetValue('Using my variable!');

SPUtility.js uses Grunt to run tests, check code syntax, and compress/minify/uglify files for use in production.

Install node.js and npm.

Install grunt:

npm install -g grunt-cli
npm install grunt

Install git and clone SPUtility.js:

git clone https://github.com/kitmenke/sputility.git

Install SPUtility.js dependencies:

cd sputility
npm install

If everything went ok, you should be able to run grunt in the sputility directory.

Executing grunt will run all of the tasks (jshint, qunit, uglify). Or, you can run them individually, for example: grunt jshint will run just the unit tests.
