React Form - Editor Properties

jQuery

To change the properties of an editor, get its instance using the getEditor(dataField) method. Then, call the option(optionName, optionValue) or option(optionName, options) method of this instance.

JavaScript
$(function() {
    var form = $("#formContainer").dxForm({
        formData: {
            firstName: "John",
            lastName: "Heart",
            phone: "+1(213) 555-9392",
            email: "jheart@dx-email.com"
        }
    }).dxForm("instance");

    $("#checkBoxContainer").dxCheckBox({
        text: 'Disable the First Name Editor',
        value: false,
        onValueChanged: function (e) {
            form.getEditor("firstName")
                .option("disabled", e.value);
        }
    });
});
NOTE
The getEditor(dataField) method is available for visible form items only.

If you need to preserve changes during Form re-rendering, change editor properties at the item level:

JavaScript
$(function() {
    const form = $("#formContainer").dxForm({
        formData: {
            firstName: "John",
            lastName: "Heart",
            phone: "+1(213) 555-9392",
            email: "jheart@dx-email.com"
        }
    }).dxForm("instance");

     $("#checkBoxContainer").dxCheckBox({
        text: 'Disable the First Name Editor',
        value: false,
        onValueChanged: function (e) {
            const options = {};
            options.disabled = e.value;
            const prevOptions = form.itemOption("firstName").editorOptions;
            form.itemOption("firstName", "editorOptions", {...prevOptions, ...options });            
        }
    });
});
Angular

To change the properties of an editor, bind the property that should be changed in the editorOptions object to a component property.

HTML
TypeScript
<dx-form
    [(formData)]="employee">
    <dxi-item dataField="firstName" [editorOptions]="{ disabled: disableFirstName.value }"></dxi-item>
    <dxi-item dataField="lastName"></dxi-item>
    <dxi-item dataField="phone"></dxi-item>
    <dxi-item dataField="email"></dxi-item>
</dx-form>
<dx-check-box #disableFirstName
    text="Disable the First Name Editor"
    [value]="false">
</dx-check-box>
import { DxFormModule, DxCheckBoxModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    employee = {
        firstName: "John",
        lastName: "Heart",
        phone: "+1(213) 555-9392",
        email: "jheart@dx-email.com"
    }
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxFormModule,
        DxCheckBoxModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue

To change the properties of an editor, bind the property that should be changed in the editorOptions object to a component property.

App.vue
<template>
    <div>
        <DxForm :form-data="employee">
            <DxSimpleItem data-field="firstName" :editor-options="editorOptions" />
            <DxSimpleItem data-field="lastName" />
            <DxSimpleItem data-field="phone" />
            <DxSimpleItem data-field="email" />
        </DxForm>
        <DxCheckBox
            text="Disable the First Name Editor"
            :value="editorOptions.disabled"
            @value-changed="checkBoxValueChanged" />
    </div>
</template>
<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { DxForm, DxSimpleItem } from 'devextreme-vue/form';
import { DxCheckBox } from 'devextreme-vue/check-box';

const employee = {
    firstName: 'John',
    lastName: 'Heart',
    phone: '+1(213) 555-9392',
    email: 'jheart@dx-email.com'
};

export default {
    components: {
        DxForm, DxSimpleItem, DxCheckBox
    },
    data() {
        return {
            employee,
            editorOptions: {
                disabled: false
            }
        };
    },
    methods: {
        checkBoxValueChanged(e) {
            this.editorOptions = { disabled: e.value };
        }
    }
};
</script>
React

To change the properties of an editor, bind the property that should be changed in the editorOptions object to a state property.

App.js
import React from 'react';

import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { Form, SimpleItem } from 'devextreme-react/form';
import { CheckBox } from 'devextreme-react/check-box';

const employee = {
    firstName: 'John',
    lastName: 'Heart',
    phone: '+1(213) 555-9392',
    email: 'jheart@dx-email.com'
};

class App extends React.Component {
    constructor() {
        super();
        this.state = {
            editorOptions: {
                disabled: false
            }
        };
        this.onCheckBoxValueChanged = this.onCheckBoxValueChanged.bind(this);
    };

    render() {
        return (
            <div>
                <Form formData={employee}>
                    <SimpleItem dataField="firstName" editorOptions={this.state.editorOptions} />
                    <SimpleItem dataField="lastName" />
                    <SimpleItem dataField="phone" />
                    <SimpleItem dataField="email" />
                </Form>
                <CheckBox
                    text="Show the Phone Number"
                    value={this.state.editorOptions.disabled}
                    onValueChanged={this.onCheckBoxValueChanged} />
            </div>
        );
    }

    onCheckBoxValueChanged(e) {
        this.setState({
            editorOptions: {
                disabled: e.value 
            }
        });
    }
}

export default App;
