Option to specify boolean labels? about react-jsonschema-form

[n1k0]

There's the enumNames jsonschema property which allows defining labels for enums, though for booleans that'd mean having this property without an explicit enum defined (as it's implicit as [true, false]):

const schema = {type: "boolean", enumNames: ["Yes", "No"]};
const uiSchema = {"ui:widget": "radio"};

Odd, and unlikely to be used in existing JSON schemas out there...

Having a new ui:labels uiSchema property seems to be the simplest way to go:

const schema = {type: "boolean"};
const uiSchema = {
  "ui:widget": "radio", 
  "ui:labels": ["Yes", "No"]
};

We could also add support for options to widgets:

const schema = {type: "boolean"};
const uiSchema = {
  "ui:widget": {
    name: "radio", 
    labels: ["Yes", "No"]
  }
};

The latter would require a much larger internal refactoring and would be probably slightly more cumbersome to write, though the feature might be useful to other widgets as well (including custom ones).

Thoughts?

Thinking of it a little more, I could probably live with support provided by using enumNames right from the schema. As a bonus, the patch is a three liner.

const schema = {type: "boolean", enumNames: ["Yes", "No"]};
const uiSchema = {"ui:widget": "radio"};

@chmac quickly put a patch in #81 so we can stare at code. Would this be enough to you?

@n1k0 Certainly looks like it would do exactly what we want. Being able to pass in the values, like Yes / No would cover most cases where we'd have thought about building our own ui:widget.

Fixed by #81.
