TextInput UI component

Purpose

TextInput is a single-line text helper for short free-form values.

Inputs

Field Required Type Behavior
name yes string Submitted field name.
value no string Current input value. Omitted renders an empty input. The rendered value is escaped.
placeholder no string Hint, not label.
onInput no Go callback Receives live edits as a simple string callback or typed input event callback.
onChange no Go callback Receives committed changes when the parent needs change semantics instead of live input.

Boundary

Value is escaped. placeholder is a hint, not a label; pair the input with Field or another visible label for accessible forms.

Example

func TitleField(draft Draft, setTitle func(string)) gx.Node {
  return (
    <Field label="Title">
      <TextInput name="title" value={draft.Title} onInput={setTitle}></TextInput>
    </Field>
  )
}

Runtime Terms

Expression children document ordinary Go expressions inside markup bodies. Typed event payloads document when an onInput callback uses a payload instead of a plain string.
