Also for some reason the builds are failing, I could get some assist here. But first of all, and most important question is if we will process with this PR ? :)

After reverting docs package.json to state before recent version bumps I was able to run the documentation locally. Made some changes and labeled the FieldGroup component as v4.7.

[zaalbarxx]

Also downgraded remark-gfm to 3.x since I found that it's the culprit of failing docs build.

@logaretm Extended the functionality by adding useFieldGroup composable. Could also come handy. Cheers.

Thanks, I will take a look when I can (around the weekend)

[zaalbarxx]

Any update on this ? Is it possible it will make it into the package ? Not sure if I should take my time to resolve conflicts and stuff :)

[logaretm]

Hey @zaalbarxx, Unfortunately I have not had the time to check this out yet. This is a significant feature work and I would like to make sure we aggressively scope how this feature works because it caused problems before in the past:

• With field scopes with [email protected]
• Nested observers in [email protected]

So give me sometime to think about this some more, and sorry about the delay, I appreciate the time you've put into this.

Any news on this? We would like to use groups too 🤞🏻

[zaalbarxx]

It does work on production for us, for over 3 months, if that matters anyhow. If you'd like to use it too @YoshiYo I released "patched" packages at

"@zaalbarxx/vee-validate": "4.12.3",
"@zaalbarxx/vee-validate-i18n": "4.12.3",
"@zaalbarxx/vee-validate-rules": "4.12.3",

I had to release all of the packages since they depend on each other (like rules depend on validate), so patched versions also have their dependencies changed. The con is that you'd have to change all references in imports from vee-validate to @zaalbarxx/vee-validate, so that's propably a bit of an overkill. Anyway, it works for us and I'm also waiting for it to go through.
