Conditional fields: regex support #486

Open bnomei opened 4 years ago

bnomei commented 4 years ago

instead of just an === comparison a regex check could be made possible as well here... https://github.com/getkirby/kirby/blob/2b0bfd0b47a308e09117bac95ac674fdf50ce36c/panel/src/components/Forms/Fieldset.vue#L98

that would allow

toggling of fields based on if other fields do have any value or are empty /.+/

or even complex conditional fields like

"tags"-field does have at least three tags /(,[^,]*){3,}/
"text"-fields does have a certain kirbytag /(\(crazy:[ \w]+\))+/

actually it currently does not even work for string even with an === check. 🤷‍♂

myfield:
  when:
    otherfield: "a string"

bnomei commented 4 years ago

as a side note if its not a regex // the it could be interpreted as a query string?

site.find('otherpage').otherfield.toBool

Reflex might be easier possible, query strings not so much. Reason is that the when term is evaluated in Vue directly without API calls. With the query language you might though expect not only a one time value at load but that this is also a constant re-evaluated statement. That would require constant API calls
