Hi,

I was able to set min size and max size restrictions in multifield in AEM 6.3.

Max size restriction: Following sample code can be used to put max size restriction in a multifield -

1. Add a new property - "maxlinksallowed" to the multifield node in your cq:dialog. Refer the screenshot below -

2. Put the below sample code in a clientlibs JS file with category "cq.authoring.dialog".

$(document).on("dialog-ready", function () {

$(".js-coral-Multifield-add").click(function() {

    var field = $(this).parent();

    var size = field.attr("data-maxlinksallowed");

    if (size) {

        var ui = $(window).adaptTo("foundation-ui");

        var totalLinkCount = $(this).prev('ol').children('li').length;

        if (totalLinkCount >= size) {

            ui.alert("Warning", "Maximum " + size + " links are allowed!", "notice");

            return false;

        }

    }

});

});

Below is the screenshot of sample output:

     e.preventDefault();

    var $form = $(this).closest("form.foundation-form"), title = $form.find("[name='./jcr:title']").val(), message, clazz = "coral-Button ";

    var fieldd = $(".coral-Multifield");

    var sizee = fieldd.attr("data-minlinksallowed");

    if(($(this).prev('ol').children('li').length) < sizee){

              message = "Minimum" + sizee + " links are required. Are you sure to submit?";

              clazz = clazz + "coral-Button--warning";

    }

    ns.ui.helpers.prompt({

             title: Granite.I18n.get("Confirm"),

             message: message,

             actions: [{

                    id: "CANCEL",

                    text: "CANCEL",

                    className: "coral-Button"

                },{

                    id: "SUBMIT",

                    text: "SUBMIT",

                    className: clazz

                }

            ],

             callback: function (actionId) {

                    $form.submit();

                }

            }

        });

    });

})(document, Granite.$, Granite.author);

Read:- AEM Touch UI Custom Validation - Adobe Experience Manager | AEM/CQ | Apache Sling

// this would help you to create AEM Touch UI Custom Validation where you can add any logic as per your case.

   Exact use-case mentioned at cq5 - How to limit nested multifield in AEM? - Stack Overflow

And blog post:- Experiencing Adobe Experience Manager - Day CQ: AEM 61 - Sample Granite Widget In Touch UI extending Multifield to Limit…

// This post will help you to limit the multi fields, but i last checked it on AEM 6.1

This should help

Did you find a solution to implement the same for coral?

Hi,

This validation logic can be easily  achieved with foundation validation.

Difference with coral UI 2 and UI 3 would be the HTML markup in identifying the multifield items.

Below link has validation for fieldLimit. Same can be followed for min max with change in logic alone.

I am able to make it work for Coral by setting validation property with value min:mx
And on ADD button(for max) and Submit(for min) click , I am reading this property and doing validating like below:

//For min

$(document).on("click", ".cq-dialog-submit", function(e) {

        var $form = $(this).closest("form.foundation-form");

        var field = $form.find("[data-granite-coral-multifield-name='./phoneitems']");

        var attrDV = field.attr("data-validation");

        var size;

        if (typeof attrDV !== undefined && attrDV !== false) {

            if(typeof attrDV.split(':')[1] !== undefined){

                    size = attrDV.split(':')[0];

                    }

        }

        // console.log("min size : " + size)

        if (size) {

            var ui = $(window).adaptTo("foundation-ui");

            var totalLinkCount = field.children('coral-multifield-item').length;

            if (totalLinkCount < size) {

                ui.alert("Warning", "Minimum " + size + " Phone numbers are allowed!", "notice");

                return false;

            } else {

                return true;

            }

        }

    });

//For Max

$(document).on("dialog-ready", function() {

        $(".coral-Button").click(function() {

            var attr = $(this).attr('coral-multifield-add');

            if (typeof attr !== typeof undefined && attr !== false) {

                var field = $(this).parent();

                var attrDV = field.attr("data-validation");

                var size;

                if (typeof attrDV !== undefined && attrDV !== false) {

                    if(typeof attrDV.split(':')[1] !== undefined){

                    size = attrDV.split(':')[1];

                    }

                }

                //console.log(size);

                if (size) {

                    var ui = $(window).adaptTo("foundation-ui");

                    var totalLinkCount = $(this).parent().children('coral-multifield-item').length;

                    if (totalLinkCount >= size) {

                        ui.alert("Warning", "Maximum " + size + " Phone numbers are allowed!", "notice");

                        return false;

                    }

                }

            }

        });

    });
