# Formatic

[![travis](https://travis-ci.org/zapier/formatic.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/zapier/formatic)

Automatic forms. Find it on NPM - [https://www.npmjs.com/package/formatic](https://www.npmjs.com/package/formatic).

## Warning!

Formatic is currently in use in production, but the API is likely to change significantly in its next versions.

## What is formatic?

Formatic is a configurable, pluggable forms library for React. Pass in JSON fields that define your form, along with a value to be edited, and Formatic gives you form fields to edit your value.

## Using formatic

If you're happy with the default configuration, you can use it like this:

```js
// Get the formatic component.
import Formatic from 'formatic';

// Create some fields.
var fields = [
{
type: 'string',
isSingleLine: true,
key: 'firstName',
label: 'First Name',
},
{
type: 'str',
isSingleLine: true,
key: 'lastName',
label: 'Last Name',
},
];

// Render the form.
React.render(
console.log(newValue)} />,
document.getElementById('my-form')
);
```

This creates a simple form like this:
