A custom hook that exposes convenient methods to perform operations with a list of dynamic inputs that need to be appended, updated, removed etc. • [Demo](https://codesandbox.io/s/react-hook-form-usefieldarray-ssugn) • [Video](https://youtu.be/4MrbfGSFY2A)

Example 1

function App() {
  const { register, control, handleSubmit, reset, trigger, setError } = useForm({
    defaultValues: {
      test: []
    }
  });
  const { fields, append } = useFieldArray({
    control,
    name: "test"
  });

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(data => console.log(data))}>
      {fields.map((item, index) => (
         <input key={item.id} {...register(`test.${index}.firstName`)}  />
      ))}
      <button type="button" onClick={() => append({ firstName: "bill" })}>

}

function useForm

useForm: <
    TFieldValues extends FieldValues = FieldValues,

>(
    props?: UseFormProps<TFieldValues, TContext, TTransformedValues>
) => UseFormReturn<TFieldValues, TContext, TTransformedValues>;

Custom hook to manage the entire form.

Parameter props

form configuration and validation parameters.

Returns

methods - individual functions to manage the form state. UseFormReturn

Remarks

[API](https://react-hook-form.com/docs/useform) • [Demo](https://codesandbox.io/s/react-hook-form-get-started-ts-5ksmm) • [Video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkXv4AXXC_4)

Example 1

function App() {
  const { register, handleSubmit, watch, formState: { errors } } = useForm();
  const onSubmit = data => console.log(data);

  console.log(watch("example"));

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <input defaultValue="test" {...register("example")} />
      <input {...register("exampleRequired", { required: true })} />
      {errors.exampleRequired && <span>This field is required</span>}
      <button>Submit</button>
    </form>
  );
}

function useFormContext

useFormContext: <
    TFieldValues extends FieldValues,
    TContext = any,
    TTransformedValues = TFieldValues
>() => UseFormReturn<TFieldValues, TContext, TTransformedValues>;

This custom hook allows you to access the form context. useFormContext is intended to be used in deeply nested structures, where it would become inconvenient to pass the context as a prop. To be used with FormProvider.

Returns

return all useForm methods

Remarks

[API](https://react-hook-form.com/docs/useformcontext) • [Demo](https://codesandbox.io/s/react-hook-form-v7-form-context-ytudi)

Example 1

function App() {
  const methods = useForm();
  const onSubmit = data => console.log(data);

  return (
    <FormProvider {...methods} >
      <form onSubmit={methods.handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
        <NestedInput />
        <input type="submit" />
      </form>
    </FormProvider>
  );
}

 function NestedInput() {
  const { register } = useFormContext(); // retrieve all hook methods
  return <input {...register("test")} />;
}

function useFormState

useFormState: <
    TFieldValues extends FieldValues = FieldValues,
    TTransformedValues = TFieldValues
>(
    props?: UseFormStateProps<TFieldValues, TTransformedValues>
) => UseFormStateReturn<TFieldValues>;

This custom hook allows you to subscribe to each form state, and isolate the re-render at the custom hook level. It has its scope in terms of form state subscription, so it would not affect other useFormState and useForm. Using this hook can reduce the re-render impact on large and complex form application.

Parameter props

include options on specify fields to subscribe. UseFormStateReturn

Remarks

[API](https://react-hook-form.com/docs/useformstate) • [Demo](https://codesandbox.io/s/useformstate-75xly)

  const { register, handleSubmit, control } = useForm({
    defaultValues: {
    firstName: "firstName"
  }});
  const { dirtyFields } = useFormState({
    control
  });
  const onSubmit = (data) => console.log(data);

  return (
    <form onSubmit={handleSubmit(onSubmit)}>
      <input {...register("firstName")} placeholder="First Name" />
      {dirtyFields.firstName && <p>Field is dirty.</p>}
      <input type="submit" />
    </form>
  );
}

        TFieldValues extends FieldValues = FieldValues,
        TTransformedValues = TFieldValues

        disabled?: boolean;
        exact?: boolean;
    }): PathValueImpl<TFieldValues, TFieldName>;
    <
        TFieldValues extends FieldValues = FieldValues,
        TFieldNames extends readonly Path<TFieldValues>[] = readonly Path<TFieldValues>[],
        TTransformedValues = TFieldValues
    >(props: {
        name: readonly [...TFieldNames];
        defaultValue?: DeepPartialSkipArrayKey<TFieldValues>;
        control?: Control<TFieldValues, any, TTransformedValues>;
        disabled?: boolean;
        exact?: boolean;
    }): {
        [K in keyof TFieldNames]: PathValueImpl<
            TFieldValues,
            TFieldNames[K] & Path<TFieldValues>
