A collection of public methods

After initializing the form with FormValidation.formValidation(), you can access the public methods provided by formValidation.

Using the global script in the browser

<script src="/vendors/@form-validation/umd/bundle/popular.min.js"></script>

<script>
    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function(e) {
        const fv = FormValidation.formValidation(
            document.getElementById('demoForm'),
            {
                ...
            }
        );

        // Call the public methods
        fv.METHOD_NAME(PARAMETERS);
    });
</script>

Using the ES6 module

// You might need to change the importing path
import { formValidation } from '/path/to/@form-validation/cjs/bundle/popular';

// Initialize somewhere depending on the JavaScript framework you are using
const fv = formValidation(
    document.getElementById('demoForm'),
    {
        ...
    }
);

// Call the public methods
fv.METHOD_NAME(PARAMETERS);

Using the npm package

Install the bundle package:

$ npm install @form-validation/bundle

Use the formValidation instance:

import { formValidation } from '@form-validation/bundle/popular';

// Initialize somewhere depending on the JavaScript framework you are using
const fv = formValidation(
    document.getElementById('demoForm'),
    {
        ...
    }
);

// Call the public methods
fv.METHOD_NAME(PARAMETERS);

The next sections list all of the public methods provided by the library.
