feature: Add Support for nested Object in form

[ahmedsakri]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the schema only supports one level of prop support. i.e, if i pass prop: "properties" in the schema. The value will be saved inside the properties object.

Below is the current scenario:

Schema:

{
  "name": "name",
  "meta": {
    "displayName": "Name",
    "displayType": "text_field",
    "displayProps": {
      "md": 12,
      "sm": 12,
      "xs": 12
    },
    "validation": {
      "max": 60,
      "required": true
    }
  },
  "prop": "properties"
}

Submitted Form Data

properties: {
  name: "Sample Name"
}

Describe the solution you'd like
Required Output:

{
    "properties": {
        "name": "Sample Name",
        "retry_config": {
            "max_retries": 3,
            "retry_interval": 5
        }
    }
}

Json Schema:

{
  "name": "name",
  "meta": {
    "displayName": "Name",
    "displayType": "text_field",
    "displayProps": {
      "md": 12,
      "sm": 12,
      "xs": 12
    },
    "validation": {
      "max": 60,
      "required": true
    }
  },
  "prop": "properties"
},
{
    "name": "max_retries",
    "meta": {
        "displayName": "Max Retries (m/s)",
        "displayType": "number",
        "displayProps": {
            "md": 12,
            "sm": 12,
            "xs": 12
        },
        "validation": {
            "max": 60,
            "required": true
        }
    },
    "prop": "properties.retry_config"
},
{
    "name": "retry_interval",
    "meta": {
        "displayName": "Retry Interval (m/s)",
        "displayType": "number",
        "displayProps": {
            "md": 12,
            "sm": 12,
            "xs": 12
        },
        "validation": {
            "max": 60,
            "required": true
        }
    },
    "prop": "properties.retry_config"
}

I am not able to pass something like this: "prop": "properties.retry_config"

Describe alternatives you've considered
Tried using "prop": "properties.retry_config", but it did not worked.

@manojadams Can you please check if we can add this?

[manojadams]

Try this format: prop#nested_prop#nested_prop

Hi @ahmedsakri refer to the example here:
https://mui-forms.vercel.app/fields/general-properties#3-example-with-nested-prop

Closing it as the requested feature is already implemented.

@manojadams Yes this works perfectly. I was wondering why # was selected instead of just . for nested values? It would be easier for dev too to understand.

Nevertheless, Your solution works!
