## Single log submission form configuration The form for this is driven by a JSON file in `/config/forms/{start_year}_{end_year}.json` The JSON should follow the structure: ```jsonc { "form_type": "lettings" / "sales", "start_year": Integer, // i.e. 2020 "end_year": Integer, // i.e. 2021 "sections": { "[snake_case_section_name_string]": { "label": String, "description": String, "subsections": { "[snake_case_subsection_name_string]": { "label": String, "pages": { "[snake_case_page_name_string]": { "header": String, "description": String, "questions": { "[snake_case_question_name_string]": { "header": String, "hint_text": String, "check_answer_label": String, "type": "text" / "numeric" / "radio" / "checkbox" / "date", "min": Integer, // numeric only "max": Integer, // numeric only "step": Integer, // numeric only "width": 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 10 / 20, // text and numeric only "prefix": String, // numeric only "suffix": String, //numeric only "answer_options": { // checkbox and radio only "0": String, "1": String }, "conditional_for": { "[snake_case_question_to_enable_1_name_string]": ["condition-that-enables"], "[snake_case_question_to_enable_2_name_string]": ["condition-that-enables"] }, "inferred_answers": { "field_that_gets_inferred_from_current_field": { "is_that_field_inferred": true } }, "inferred_check_answers_value": { "condition": { "field_name_for_inferred_check_answers_condition": "field_value_for_inferred_check_answers_condition" }, "value": "Inferred value that gets displayed if condition is met" } } }, "depends_on": [{ "question_key": "answer_value_required_for_this_page_to_be_shown" }] } } } } } } } ``` Assumptions made by the format: - All forms have at least 1 section - All sections have at least 1 subsection - All subsections have at least 1 page - All pages have at least 1 question - The ActiveRecord case log model has a field for each question name (must match). In the case of checkbox questions it must have one field for every answer option (again names must match). - Text not required by a page/question such as a header or hint text should be passed as an empty string - For conditionally shown questions, conditions that have been implemented and can be used are: - Radio question answer option selected matches one of conditional e.g. ["answer-options-1-string", "answer-option-3-string"] - Numeric question value matches condition e.g. [">2"], ["<7"] or ["== 6"] - When the top level question is a radio button and the conditional question is a numeric, text or date field then the conditional question is shown inline - When the conditional question is a radio, checkbox or select field it should be displayed on it's own page and "depends_on" should be used rather than "conditional_for" Page routing: - Form navigation works by stepping sequentially through every page defined in the JSON form definition for the given subsection. For every page it checks if it has "depends_on" conditions. If it does, it evaluates them to determine whether that page should be show or not. - In this way we can build up whole branches by having: ```jsonc "page_1": { "questions": { "question_1: "answer_options": ["A", "B"] } }, "page_2": { "questions": { "question_2: "answer_options": ["C", "D"] }, "depends_on": [{ "question_1": "A" }] }, "page_3": { "questions": { "question_3: "answer_options": ["E", "F"] }, "depends_on": [{ "question_1": "A" }] }, "page_4": { "questions": { "question_4: "answer_options": ["G", "H"] }, "depends_on": [{ "question_1": "B" }] }, ``` ### JSON form validation against Schema To validate the form JSON against the schema you can run:\ `rake form_definition:validate["config/forms/2021_2022.json"]` n.b. You may have to escape square brackets in zsh\ `rake form_definition:validate\["config/forms/2021_2022.json"\]` This will validate the given form definition against the schema in `config/forms/schema/generic.json`. You can also run:\ `rake form_definition:validate_all` This will validate all forms in directories = `["config/forms", "spec/fixtures/forms"]`
