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 -

max-limit.png

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:

Min size restriction: Following sample code can be used to put min size restriction in a multifield -

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

min-limit.png

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

(function (document, $, ns) {

     "use strict";

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

     e.stopPropagation();

     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) {

                if (actionId === "SUBMIT") {

                    $form.submit();

                }

            }

        });

    });

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

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.

Custom Validation for Coral UI 3 Multifield using foundation-validation

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;

                    }

                }

            }

        });

    });

Hi All,

I have also achieved the above using below code snippet:

For Maximum links validation:

Add a new property - "maxlinksallowed", type- String to the multifield node in your cq:dialog.

Add below javascript code to touchui js file.

            $(".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;

                }

             }

           });

For Minimum links validation:

Add a new property - "minlinksallowed" , type- String to the multifield node in your cq:dialog.

Add below javascript code to touchui js file.

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

            var $multifields = $("[" + DATA_EAEM_NESTED + "]");

            if(_.isEmpty($multifields)){

                return;

            }

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

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

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

            var multilinks = $multifields.length-1;

            if (multilinks < minsize) {

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

                ui.alert("Warning", "Minimum " + minsize + " link is required!", "notice");

                return false;

            }

        });
