Data Driven Forms contains default schema validator, that controls basic schema attributes: name, component, conditions, validators, etc. If you want to control your own validators, components or actions, use schemaValidatorMapper prop.

It's a simple object containing three keys: components, actions, validators. Each of these is an another object with names as keys and functions as returns. Components' validators receive the whole field object, actions'/validators' validators receive two arguments: action/validator as the first one and the name of the field as the second one.

For returning an error please use DefaultSchemaError imported from the renderer's package. If the schema is correct, do nothing.

import FormRenderer from '@data-driven-forms/react-form-renderer/form-renderer';
import DefaultSchemaError from '@data-driven-forms/react-form-renderer/default-schema-error';
const schemaValidatorMapper = {
components: {
// schema validators for components
[component]: (field) => {
if(someError(field)) {
throw new DefaultSchemaError(`Error message in field ${field.name}`);
}
}
},
actions: {
// schema validators for actions
[actionName]: (action, fieldName) => {
if(someError(action)) {
throw new DefaultSchemaError(`Error message in field ${fieldName}`);
}
}
},
validators: {
// schema validators for validators
[validatorType]: (validator, fieldName) => {
if(someError(validator)) {
throw new DefaultSchemaError(`Error message in field ${fieldName}`);
}
}
}
}
...
<FormRenderer
{...props}
schemaValidatorMapper={schemaValidatorMapper}
/>

This is example is supposed to fail
