ChildTableConfig

ChildTableConfig = object

Defined in: packages/forms/src/types.ts:200

Configuration for a child table rendered as a dynamic field array under a parent AutoForm.

Child tables are introspected the same way the parent table is — column types, required flags, enums, and v() validation rules all flow through. The rendered form exposes add / remove (and optionally reorder) controls and submits a typed array of rows under the configured key.

Example

createAutoForm({
  table: recipes,
  children: {
    ingredients: {
      table: ingredients,
      foreignKey: "recipe_id",
      minRows: 1,
      maxRows: 50,
      reorderable: true,
      fields: { name: {}, amount: { placeholder: "g" } },
    },
  },
  onSubmit: async (values) => {
    // values.ingredients is the typed array of child rows
  },
});

Properties

optional addLabel: string

optional exclude: string[]

Defined in: packages/forms/src/types.ts:218

Additional column names to omit from the rendered child rows.

fields?

optional fields: Partial<Record<string, FieldConfig>>

Defined in: packages/forms/src/types.ts:216

Per-column overrides for the child table fields, identical in shape to the parent FieldConfig.

Foreign key column on the child table that points back at the parent. The column is automatically excluded from the rendered child fields and stamped onto each row at submit time.
