Groups error when changing to a doc with non-existing field group

[legowhales]

Hey,

I am facing an issue with the latest version (dev-preview.22). [edit] Actually the problem happens with older version as well.

When I go to an another document that has different group fields. Changing to a document that does not have the same group field selected will throw an error.

I actually found a way to fix this, but I do not know how to contribute to v3.

The fix is in this file: /sanity/src/core/form/store/formState.ts

What is the right way to contribute to v3?

// ...
function prepareObjectInputState<T>(
  props: RawState<ObjectSchemaType, T>,
  enableHiddenCheck = true
): ObjectFormNode | null {
  // ...
  const defaultGroupName = (schemaTypeGroupConfig.find((g) => g.default) || ALL_FIELDS_GROUP)?.name
  // add this:
  const schemaTypeGroups = [ALL_FIELDS_GROUP, ...schemaTypeGroupConfig];
  const fieldGroupStateName = schemaTypeGroups.find((g) => g.name == props.fieldGroupState?.value)?.name;
  // then:
  const groups = schemaTypeGroups.flatMap((group): FormFieldGroup[] => {
    // ...
    // change: const isSelected = group.name === (props.fieldGroupState?.value || defaultGroupName)
    // to:
    const isSelected = group.name === (fieldGroupStateName || defaultGroupName)
    // ...
  })
}

This code keeps the group selection active between doc change. And if the group field does not exist, it selects the default group or All fields.

This should be addressed by #4050 which is scheduled for release in the next couple of days. Thank you for an excellent description of the issue!
