Add support for sending an object as the target value about form

[3lvis]

I'm afraid I don't understand, what do you mean by "object of key values"?

Could you provide a sample of the API you would like to have?

[zenangst]

{
    "id":"target_id",
    "type":"field",
    "action":"update",
    "target_value":{
        "required":true,
        "value": "$other_date_field",
        "minimumDate":"$other_date"
    },
    "condition":"$conditional_value == 2"
 }

[zenangst]

Also, it would be neat if it supported the $ delimiter to fetch values from foreign fields

[3lvis]

Looks useful :)

[zenangst]

But calling it target_value no longer makes sense.

[3lvis]

Definetly

[3lvis]

I guess you could do

{
    "id":"target_id",
    "type":"field",
    "action":"update",
    "required":true,
    "value": "$other_date_field",
    "minimum_date":"$other_date"
    "condition":"$conditional_value == 2"
 }

in that example: if condition is fulfilled then the target_id field will set: a value, a minimun date and make the field required, right?

so the semantic of target_value would be like All the actions that happen when the condition is fulfilled

[zenangst]

@fespinoza something like that yes.

[fespinoza]

I prefer the syntax that @zenangst posted, about the field name, can be changed for something like target_transformations or something

[3lvis]

A target is an element that triggers an action over a field or a section.

In that idea I think we could make target inherit from a field, so it has all the elements of a field but with the additional powers.

[zenangst]

@NSElvis HYPFormTarget already has a property called value.

@zenangst: naming would just be a detail I guess, everything else should work.

No new features for now, let's reconsider after the bug fixes have being fixed.
