Falsy values are being turned into undefined upon removing array field

Open juanvilladev opened this issue 8 months ago • 1 comments

Describe the bug

When removing array elements, currently subfields with falsy values on the last row are being changed to undefined. Added a condition to specifically check for undefined.

This is critical as the casting converting booleans or empty strings to undefined leads to uncontrolled inputs in React and overall strange behavior regarding validators that expect particular value types.

Your minimal, reproducible example

https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-6huqeq8i?file=src%2FApp.tsx,src%2Fcomponents%2FForm.tsx

Steps to reproduce

  1. Click the push value button twice so you have three rows.
  2. Click the Log button and inspect the console.
  3. Notice that interests logs:
[
    {
        "id": "01965a86-4995-768a-85b9-be02512c2208",
        "interestName": ""
    },
    {
        "id": "01965a86-4ab7-751b-9368-8ce7539f2e49"
        "interestName": undefined
    }
]

interestName is now missing! It was overwritten as undefined

Expected behavior

Falsy values remain stable after removing field value.
