Helpers

Helpers are yielded by some blocks, like Form, or provided as parameters to callbacks. They allow you to interact with the form state in a simple and clear way.

set

set allows you to assign a value to a specific field in the form's data.

Parameters

• name (string): The name of the field to which the value is to be set.
• value (number): The value to be set.

Example

set("foo", 1);

Using the set helper yielded by the form:

<Form as |form|>
  <DButton @action={{fn form.set "foo" 1}} @translatedLabel="Set foo" />
</Form>

setProperties

setProperties allows you to assign an object to the form's data.

Parameters

• data (object): A POJO where each key is going to be set on the form using its value.

Example

setProperties({ foo: 1, bar: 2 });

Using the setProperties helper yielded by the form:

<Form as |form|>
  <DButton
    @action={{fn form.setProperties (hash foo=1 bar=2)}}
    @translatedLabel="Set foo and bar"
  />
</Form>

addError

addError allows you to add an error message to a specific field in the form.

Parameters

• name (string): The name of the field that is invalid.
• error (object): The error’s data
  • title (string): The title of the error, usually the translated name of the field
  • message (string): The error message

Example

addError("foo", { title: "Foo", message: "This should be another thing." });
