Formik: setValues and values

[dorkblue]

If I have props.values as below

const {
 values,
 setValues
} = props

const {
 names
} = values

where names equals to the following object

{
  user1: 'jon',
  user2: 'darrell'
}

how do I use setValues to change names.user1 to 'Louisa' for example?

Do I have to pass the entire mutated values object into setValues? IE:

values.names.user1 = 'Louisa'
setValues(values)

@dorkblue How did you end up handling that case?

setFieldValue

in 0.11.0-alpha, you could use the new array path syntax for name="names.user1"

I noticed it. I was about to tell you the same :)

Can I do this then?
@6ewis @jaredpalmer

setFieldValue('names.user1', 'Louisa)

I eventually settled with the below initially.

values.names.user1 = 'Louisa'
setValues(values)

This thread is old, but if you've gotten here late, one solution is using the immer library:

form.setValues(
    produce(form.values, draft => {
        draft.foo = "bar"
    })
)

just clone the object without a new library
