                500,
                "swing",
                function() {}
            );

    setTimeout(() => {
        setFormHeight();
    }, 500);
    //SETTING PROPER FORM HEIGHT ONLOAD
    window.addEventListener("load", setFormHeight, false);

    //SETTING PROPER FORM HEIGHT ONRESIZE
    window.addEventListener("resize", setFormHeight, false);

    //changing animation via animation select !!!YOU DON'T NEED THIS CODE (if you want to change animation type, just change form panels data-attr)

    const setAnimationType = newType => {
        DOMstrings.stepFormPanels.forEach(elem => {
            elem.dataset.animation = newType;
        });
    };

    //selector onchange - changing animation
    const animationSelect = document.querySelector(
        ".pick-animation__select"
    );
    if (animationSelect != null) {
        animationSelect.addEventListener("change", () => {
            const newAnimationType = animationSelect.value;

            setAnimationType(newAnimationType);
        });
    }
},

By clicking on “Next” button next step is opened, but I need to validate inputs before moving to next step. Please any hints how can I make validation here ? Also is it some library? I searched in net but drowned…

Thanks!

Answer

Each wizard view send wizard position in ajax.In backend based on wizard position validate fields .since you know which and all field exist in each wizard view.

For example consider you have 3 wizard steps.

Step 1 has 3 input fields

Step 2 has 2 input fields

Step 3 has 1 input fields

Suppose if you send current step is 1 then you can only validate those fields.

$validations=[
'step1'=>[
  //field validation array
],
'step3'=>[
  //field validation array
],
'step3'=>[
  //field validation array
],
]

then based on request wizard step you can easily fetch validation rules

Validation::make($validations[$request->step]);

Or you can make all fields validate only if exists in the request
