Actual behavior

Version

2.2.1

It would be very helpful to have that feature. I am working with many JSON schemas that use patternProperties. Unfortunately I can't use rjsf for generating forms.

Did you find any other solutions for patternProperties? @j-zimnowoda

We have a need for patternProperties support here, too.

In terms of the user experience, I see this being quite similar to the additionalProperties solution, with the difference that the key entered by the user must be validated against the pattern. In case key and pattern do not match, an error must be displayed in the vicinity of the key field.

Agree?

For what it's worth, here is most of jsonform's implementation of patternProperties, which just uses JSV's implementation from over a decade ago. 😅
