MUICheckbox
MUICheckbox is a single Checkbox
with a boolean value, an inline label, and optional helper text or error state.
Usage#
import MUICheckbox, { MUICheckboxProps } from '@nish1896/mui-components/mui/checkbox';const [accepted, setAccepted] = useState(false);
<MUICheckbox
fieldName="terms"
value={accepted}
onValueChange={({ newValue }) => setAccepted(newValue)}
label="I accept the terms and conditions"
/>Props#
MUICheckboxProps also accepts most CheckboxProps.
Props marked with * are required.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
fieldName* | string | Name/path of the field. Used to derive the id, the default label, and the name attribute. This prop is required for all components. |
value | boolean | Current checked state. undefined/false are treated as unchecked. |
onValueChange* | ({ newValue, event }) => void | Called on every toggle with the next checked state and the original change event. |
label | ReactNode | Label displayed for the field. Defaults to a human-readable label derived from fieldName, e.g. firstName becomes First Name |
formControlLabelProps | FormControlLabelProps | FormControlLabelProps forwarded to the internal FormControlLabel. Multiple fields can be configured using the ConfigProvider component. |
hideLabel | boolean | When true, hides the rendered field label while preserving accessible labeling where possible. |
required | boolean | Indicates that the field is mandatory by adding an asterisk symbol (*) to the form label and setting the relevant accessibility attributes. |
errorMessage | string | string[] | Validation error for the field — pass a single message string, or a string[] when the field can fail multiple rules at once (every message is shown together). A non-empty string or array puts the field in an error state; undefined/''/[] clear it. Normalize your form library's error shape to this at the call site (e.g. an RHF FieldError via its .message). Use renderError to customize how the message(s) are rendered. |
renderError | (errors: string[]) => ReactNode | Custom renderer for the resolved error message(s), called only when the field is in an error state. Always receives a string[] — use errors[0] for the common single-message case, or map over errors when a field fails several rules. By default a single message renders as text and multiple messages render on separate lines. |
hideErrorMessage | boolean | If true, hides the error message text while keeping the field in an error state. |
helperText | ReactNode | Content displayed in the FormHelperText component below the field when there is no visible validation error. |
formHelperTextProps | FormHelperTextProps | FormHelperTextProps forwarded to the internal FormHelperText. The id is managed by the component. Multiple fields can be configured using the ConfigProvider component. |
customIds | { field, label, helperText, error } | Overrides the default field, label, helper text, and error IDs used for accessibility. |
Playground#
Driven by plain React state — a custom label, pass-through CheckboxProps
(color / size), helperText, and a required checkbox with a custom renderError.
