Online Demo: https://codesandbox.io/s/github/OoDeLally/formik-undo-demo

Setup

npm install --save formik-undo
import { FormikUndo } from 'formik-undo';
 
const autoSaveOptions = {
  throttleDelay: 10000,
};
 
const App = () => {
  return (
    <Formik
      initialValues={initialValues}
      onSubmit={handleSubmit}
    >
      <FormikUndo autoSave={autoSaveOptions}>
        <MyForm />
      </FormikUndo>
    </Formik>
  );
};

Provider's props are as follow:

Name Type Default Description
autoSave boolean \| { ...options } true If false, does not autosave.
If true, autosave with the default options.
If object autosave with the provided options.
autoSave.throttleDelay number 2000 Frequency of autosaving in millisecond.
If 0, save at every modification.
autoSave.saveOnFieldChange boolean true If true, save a checkpoint everytime the modified field is different from the previously modified. This is useful to save the final value of a input after the user moves to another input.
If false, only the whole formik values object is considered and different fields changes may be aggregated from one checkpoint to another.
autoSave.preventWordCutting boolean true If true, when editing a string value, don't save in the middle of a word (experimental).

If you need a finer save trigger, write your own hook using the methods provided by useFormikContext() and useFormikUndo().

Usage

import { useFormikUndo } from 'formik-undo';
 
const MyComponent = () => {
  const { reset, undo, redo, saveCheckpoint } = useFormikUndo();
  // Do stuff
  return (
    <div>
      ...
    </div>
  );
};
Name Type Description
reset () => void Reset the form to the initial values.
undo () => void Undo to previous checkpoint.
redo () => void Redo to next checkpoint.
saveCheckpoint () => void Manually save a checkpoint to the history.
addCheckpointEquivalent (targetValue: Values, equivalentValue: Values) => void Declare that a certain value is equivalent to another, and therefore does not constitute a change worth saving (advanced).
undoableCount number Number of possible undo actions.
redoableCount number Number of possible redo actions.
didCreateCurrentValues boolean Whether the latest form's values were set by us (advanced).

Control bar

A control bar with default buttons is provided (as seen on the screenshot above).

import { FormikUndoControlBar } from 'formik-undo';
 
const MyForm = () => {
  return (
    <Form>
      <FormikUndoControlBar />
      <input name="foo" />
      <input name="bar" />
    </Form>
  )
};

<FormikUndoControlBar> accepts props:

Name Type Default Description
showReset boolean true Show the reset button.
showRedo boolean true Show the redo button.
disabled boolean false Disable every control.
className string Add extra classes to the control container.
buttonTitles Record<('reset' \| 'undo' \| 'redo'), string \| null> "Reset", "Undo", "Redo" Override the title attribute of the button.
buttonClasses Record<('reset' \| 'undo' \| 'redo'), string> {} Add extra classes to some of the buttons.
buttonIcons Record<('reset' \| 'undo' \| 'redo'), ComponentType> "↺", "↶", "↷" Override the buttons' content.
buttonComponent ComponentType Override the buttons' component.

formik-undo has minimal dependencies.

If you use Material-UI, you can use a wrapper that prettifies the FormikUndoControlBar:

(Add the file into your project).
