Allow form generator to take a fields option which will prepopulate the form with those fields about redux-cli HOT 7 CLOSED

Interesting... so how would this work, like: redux g form SignUp --fields=firstName lastName email password? Would this only be for the field names or how would it know that the input types should be of attribute "email" or "password" or "text"?

from redux-cli.

Yeah something along those lines would be nice. Maybe you would separte field names with their types like in a rails migration.

firstName:text email:email lastName:text age:number etc.

Ok, seems pretty straight forward then; so a complete command for this would include an optional --fields flag with any number of <field name>:<input type> arguments. In theory, this could look like:

redux g form <form name> --fields=<field name>:<input type> where multiple fields are separated by spaces. Unless there's a cleaner way...

This might be a separate issue, but I think redux-cli needs to have some sort of validation for this in that if a form or component already exists, complain about it in the CLI instead of overwriting it (as well as making sure the syntax is correct for the including the field arguments). The overwriting of existing components has been a cumbersome issue I've experienced using this library. Nothing a revert of the local repo couldn't fix, but still...

from redux-cli.

Yeah I totally agree with the overwrite issues. If you want to try and tackle that I'd be open to a PR. I just started a new job though and need to learn Go and Angular at the moment so not sure how much free time I'll have to work on that for at least a few weeks.

Cool. I just wanted to create some ideas here for reference whenever I might have time to work on this...

Another idea, however, is to allow another flag for --validation=true or something, which would create some simple validation logic around the user-defined fields during the generation process. That would be pretty cool... I would love to work on this when I have time, which isn't now unfortunately. But will leave these notes behind for future reference.

#110 will address this. And this issue will be closed when it is accepted

data will be able to be passed to blueprints that can use to do things like generate form fields for each attribute.

Merged #110 into the 2.0 master.
