I am following a ReactJS tutorial to set up a login form. Semantic ui is used and imported. The email and password are passed into the value attribute inside the form. When this happens, I cannot type anything into the form. As soon as I remove it, I can type information in but I assume it won't get passed into anywhere.
Cannot seem to find this issues anywhere else. Has anyone experienced this issue before?
import React from 'react';
import PropTypes from 'prop-types';
import { Form, Button } from 'semantic-ui-react';
import Validator from 'validator';
import InlineError from '../messages/InlineError';
class LoginForm extends React.Component {
state = {
data: {
email: "",
password: ""
},
loading: false,
errors: {}
};
//... is called spread
onChange = e => this.setState({
data: {...this.state.data, [e.target.name]: e.target.value }
});
//() means function takes no params
onSubmit = () => {
const errors = this.validate(this.state.data);
this.setState({errors}); //if there are errors, display them
if(Object.keys(errors).length === 0){
this.props.submit(this.state.data);
}
};
validate = (data) => {
const errors = {};
if(!Validator.isEmail(data.email))
errors.email = "Invalid email";
if(!data.password)
errors.password = "Can't be blank";
return errors;
};
render() {
const { data, errors } = this.state; // import variables into html
return (
<div>
<Form onSubmit={ this.onSubmit }>
<Form.Field error={!!errors.email}>
<label htmlFor="email">Email</label>
<input type="email"
id="email"
placeholder="[email protected]"
value={ data.email }
onChange={ this.onChange }/>
{errors.email && <InlineError text={errors.email}/>}
</Form.Field>
<Form.Field error={!!errors.email}>
<label htmlFor="password">Password</label>
<input type="password"
id="password"
value={ data.password }
onChange={this.onChange}/>
{errors.password && <InlineError text={errors.password}/>}
</Form.Field>
<Button primary>Login</Button>
</Form>
</div>
);
}
}
LoginForm.propTypes = {
submit: PropTypes.func.isRequired
};
export default LoginForm;
