You can use npm install --save redux-form

Im writing a simple email and submit button form, which validates email and submits form. with redux-form, form by default runs event.preventDefault() on html onSubmit action.

import React, {Component} from 'react';
import {reduxForm} from 'redux-form';

class LoginForm extends Component {
  onSubmit(props) {
    //do your submit stuff
  }


  render() {
    const {fields: {email}, handleSubmit} = this.props;

    return (
      

        
          
            {email.touched ? email.error : ''}
          
        
      
    );
  }
}

function validation(values) {
  const errors = {};
  const emailPattern = /(.+)@(.+){2,}\.(.+){2,}/;
  if (!emailPattern.test(values.email)) {
    errors.email = 'Enter a valid email';
  }

  return errors;
}

LoginForm = reduxForm({
  form: 'LoginForm',
  fields: ['email'],
  validate: validation
}, null, null)(LoginForm);

export default LoginForm;
