How To Enforce Required Paper-radio-group In Polymer?
What's the best way to enforce require check on paper-radio-group? I saw another question and answer that uses fallback-selection, here, but I want to force the user to choose 'yes
Solution 1:
I'm assuming you call checkAnswers() in your submit handler. Note that <iron-form>.validate() performs similar logic except it only calls validate() on children that have the IronFormElementBehavior and the required attribute. If you apply required to the appropriate input elements, you could replace checkAnswers() with this.$.form.validate().
submit: function() {
//var isValid = checkAnswers();
var isValid = this.$.form.validate();
}
<paper-radio-group> actually does not have the IronFormElementBehavior, so its required attribute has no effect. You could workaround this by wrapping <paper-radio-group> with your own custom element that properly adds the behavior:
<dom-module id="radio-group">
<template>
<paper-radio-group id="group"
attr-for-selected="{{attrForSelected}}"
selected="{{selected}}">
<content></content>
</paper-radio-group>
</template>
<script>
Polymer({
is: 'radio-group',
behaviors: [
Polymer.IronFormElementBehavior
],
get selectedItem() {
return this.$.group.selectedItem;
},
validate: function() {
return this.selectedItem != null;
}
});
</script>
</dom-module>
Then, just replace <paper-radio-group> with <radio-group>:
<radio-group attr-for-selected="value" required>
<paper-radio-button value="yes">Yes</paper-radio-button>
<paper-radio-button value="no">No</paper-radio-button>
</radio-group>

<paper-button on-click="submit">Submit</paper-button>

</iron-form>
</template>
<script>
HTMLImports.whenReady(function() {
Polymer({
is: 'x-form',
submit: function() {
console.log('valid', this.$.form.validate(),
'answer', this.$.answer.selectedItem && this.$.answer.selectedItem.value);
}
});
});
</script>
</dom-module>
<dom-module id="radio-group">
<template>
<paper-radio-group id="group" attr-for-selected="{{attrForSelected}}" selected="{{selected}}">
<content></content>
</paper-radio-group>
</template>
<script>
HTMLImports.whenReady(function() {
Polymer({

behaviors: [
Polymer.IronFormElementBehavior
],
get selectedItem() {
return this.$.group.selectedItem;
},
validate: function() {
return this.selectedItem != null;
}
});
});
</script>
</dom-module>
</body>For binary input like these Yes/No answers, it might be appropriate to use <paper-checkbox> instead, as it requires less code and simplifies the form for that input.
