Radio Group in Form for Ark UI

Notify me about... lists All new messages, Direct messages and mentions, and Nothing. No radio starts selected, and Submit sits under the group.

Notify me about... lists All new messages, Direct messages and mentions, and Nothing. No radio starts selected. A helper line sits under the options, and the button says Submit.

Use a radio group in a form when one option is required. A Select hides the options until it is opened. On React, Ark UI does not validate the group.

FAQ

What does the form require?

One of the three options. On submit the handler looks the value up in the options list. With no match it sets the field invalid, and FieldError shows You need to select a notification type.

How is the radio group connected to the state?

The group is controlled, and picking an option stores it and clears the error. It also has name set to type, so a real form submit sends the value. value is the state, and onValueChange receives details.value.

What are the three values?

all is All new messages, mentions is Direct messages and mentions, and none is Nothing. They come from a list at the top of the file.

How does the invalid state look?

The outer Field and each option's Field get invalid, so the legend and the radios turn the destructive color, and FieldError appears under the description. RadioGroup also gets invalid.

What happens on a valid submit?

The handler prevents the page reload and shows You selected: with the option's label next to the button. Replace that line with your own save or request.

Can I pick an option from the keyboard?

Yes. Tab moves focus to the first item, since none is checked. The arrow keys move to another item and check it, Space checks the focused item, and Enter on the button submits.
