react-json-form (JavaScript)

react-json-form has been updated to version 1.11.0.

Breaking changes

The internal HTML structure of the widget, i.e. how the the fields are rendered, has been changed. Due to this, some of the CSS code has also been changed.

You don’t need to worry about this unless you’ve written custom CSS styles for the widget. If so, this is something to beware of.

Feb 14, 2022

This version introduces no breaking changes and is fully compatible with the previous releases (2.7.x).

Like the previous version, it also supports Django >= 2.0 and Python >= 3.4.

What's new

New features

• Datetime input
  Support for datetime input has been added for string type fields using format: 'datetime' key.
  Read about its usage here: Datetime field.

• Multiple choice selection
  Support for multiple choice selection. Learn more in usage docs: Multiple selections.

• Default value for array
  Support for default initial value for an array. Earlier, only array itemscould have a default value.
  The problem with that is when a new item was added, the same default value was also added again.
  With this feature, it is now possible to set multiple default values on an array.

• Clearable file inputs
  Now file upload inputs can be cleared, i.e. their value can be unset.
  Earlier, it wasn't possible to empty a file input once a value was attached.

• Callable schema may receive the model instance
  Now the callable schema function may optionally receive the current model instance as an argument.

Bugfixes

• #25: Fixed a bug where editing a key in an extendable dict (object) made the key disappear.
• #27: Fixed a bug to make the editor work in admin inlines.

Minor improvements

• Autogrowing textarea
  Textarea's height will now grow automatically as the user types in. This saves the user from having to manually resize the textarea.

• Animated list items
  List items will have a nice animation when moved up/down or removed. This will help provide some feedback to the user.
  Earlier it wasn't obvious when list items were moved.
