Form
Form
Forms are not created like most components. Instead of importing a Form component then importing the various inputs to use, this is all done through props.
To use forms, you'll pass in your objects indicating the type of input you want. One of your inputs (usually the last one) should be a button, which will have an onsubmit handler that will deal with your form submission.
Bubbles provides two utility functions called getFormData, which will give you an object of your data and validateInputs which will validate the inputs based on the validation params that you supply to each of the inputs. Learn more about getFormData and validateInputs
All of the inputs that you provide to the form should have an id property. This will end up being the property name/key on the JSON object. If your id includes any periods in it like profile.name, the "name" will be nested under "profile".
Props
id string
You can set an ID for the form, otherwise an unique ID will automatically be applied.
inputs array<Object>
An array of input values that you want to add. See the individual articles for inputs like Input, Select, and Button to understand what kind of properties to add to each.
Below are specific properties you can add to an input when used with a form:
input[].width number
You can add inputs next to each other instead of stacking them simply by passing the width as a percentage. If you wanted two inputs side by side, you would passing 50 as the width for both of them. If you wanted three inputs all in one row, you would pass in 33 as the width for all of the inputs.
input[].hide function
A function that returns true if the input should be hidden.

<Form inputs={formInputs} />Stripe
There are many ways to collect payments. At Bubbles our preferred way to process payments is on the backend server instead of the front end. This gives us a lot more flexibility with things like the application_fee_amount property, which is a more common use case for dashboards and SaaS products.
Therefore, the only thing that our stripe-card input does, is convert the user's credit card into the stripe token ID that you will send to your backend and finalize the transaction.
The process for this is pretty simple. Like any Bubbles Form component, you pass in the array of form inputs to the form component as a prop. In the onsumbit function of your button, you'll pass in the reference to your array of inputs to the getFormData utility you imported. Bubbles will automatically convert the card to the token, and the token will be part of the object returned. They key, as always, being the id you passed to that input.
Any StripeJS dependencies will only load client side after everything else mounts, so there will be no performance penalties for using this component.
