Default value not populating checkboxes

[adamschwartz]

Repro steps:

• Visit the demo
• Enter [*] for the form and the following schema:

{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "flavors": {
            "title": "Flavors",
            "type": "array",
            "items": {
                "enum": [
                    "Chocolate",
                    "Vanilla"
                ]
            },
            "default": ["Chocolate"]
        }
    }
}

Observe that the "Chocolate" checkbox is not checked.

I believe this is because after ng-init="checkboxValues = {}", checkboxValues is never being set with the default passed in via the schema.

i think your schema is wrong, with this it works for me:

{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "flavors": {
            "title": "Flavors",
            "type": "array",
            "items": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {
                    "name": {
                        "type": "string",
                        "enum": [
                            "Chocolate",
                            "Vanilla"
                        ],
                        "default": "Vanilla"
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

That schema produces a resulting flavors array of objects, [{ name: "Vanilla" }], whereas the desired schema would produce a flavors array of strings, ["Chocolate"].

View the checkboxes type in the README

yep it is a bug, the code for "checkboxes" form type needs some love. Some work has been done, see #26, but that doesn't fix using the "default" keyword.

[torstenrudolf]

You are right Adam, sorry for that.

[torstenrudolf]

I think #26 fixes this problem. Working with the develop branch fixes setting the default box checked.

[adamschwartz]

@torstenrudolf Thanks.

@davidlgj what’s the status on this? Is there a release coming which includes #26?

[davidlgj]

@adamschwartz I just pushed further fixes that seems to solve #30 as well as #25 into development. My aim is to do a release this week.
