validationGroup

Specifies the validation group the editor will be related to.

Type:

String

Generally, the editors that are associated with dxValidator objects are validated on each value change. But you can combine several editors into a group so that they are validated together (e.g., on a button click). In the Knockout or AngularJS approach, editors should be added to the div element representing the ValidationGroup component. In this instance, you do not have to specify the validationGroup option for the associated dxValidator objects.

If you use the JQuery approach, the validationGroup option should be specified for the associated dxValidator object to indicate the validation group within which the editor will be validated. Assign the same validation group name for those editors that should be validated together.

See Also

validationRules

An array of validation rules to be checked for the editor with which the dxValidator object is associated.

Type:

Array<RequiredRule | NumericRule | RangeRule | StringLengthRule | CustomRule | CompareRule | PatternRule | EmailRule>

There are several predefined rule types. Each rule type demands a specific set of rule options. Use the Validation Rules section to learn how to define rules of different types.
