Returns the value of the field. This will always be an object as some fields can have multiple values (e.g., Address field can have Address1, Address2, City, Province, Country values)
Scrolls to the targetted field
Resets the field to its default value.
The default value is either one set for this specific field (e.g. via setGeneralAttribute('defaultValue'))
or the default value of all fields of this type (e.g. an empty string for Short Answer fields).
Sets an override search function for searchable fields (Dropdowns, etc.)
Implementing a custom local search
field.setSearchFunction((query, fieldId, options) => {
return new Promise((resolve) => {
// if the field is field 1, it should not show invalid options for this specific field
resolve(options.filter(o => (query && o.label.indexOf(query) !== -1) && (fieldId !== '1' || o.value !== 'invalid')));
});
});
Implementing a custom remote search
field.setSearchFunction((query, fieldId, options) => {
return fetch(`https://my-endpoint/options?query=${query}&id=${fieldId}`)
.then(resonse => {
// for an endpoint with a JSON payload
return resonse.json();
}).then(data => {
// endpoint doesn't return field options, but some other custom model
return data.items.map(i => ({ label: i.text, value: i.key, id: i.key }));
});
});
Sets the field to a safe empty value (according to its type).
