@rjsf/validator-ajv8

Dev / docs / playground

• Updated the playground to onFormDataEdited() to only change the formData in the state if the JSON.stringify() of the old and new values are different, partially fixing #3236
• Updated the playground npm start command to always use the --force option to avoid issues where changes made to other packages weren't getting picked up due to vite caching
• Updated the documentation for utility-functions and the 5.x upgrade guide to add the new utility functions and to document the deprecation of getMatchingOption()
  • Also updated utility-functions, making all optional parameters without a default (as denoted by the syntax [<parameter>]: <type>) to add | undefined onto the type to make it clear it supports passing in undefined as a value.
