Using FormBuilder
Created 5 years ago by pooriaHi
(First: I could not find any docs about available form options like wrapper_view
, success_message
, ... . Do they exist? )
I'm using this code in my controller to render a form in front-end:
public function profile(FacultyFormBuilder $form, $id) {
$form->setOption('wrapper_view', 'theme::profile');
$form->setOption('success_message', trans('theme::form.success_message'));
$form->render($id);
}
The resume
field in backend is set to anomaly.field_type.file
But I want to change it to anomaly.field_type.upload
in front-end. I tried this code but it didn't work because $form->getFields()
is empty:
$form->setFields(array_merge($form->getFields(), [
'resume' => [
'type' => 'anomaly.field_type.upload'
]
]));
However, If I use a custom FormBuilder and set this In its class:
protected $model = FacultyModel::class;
...
protected $fields = [
...
'resume' => [
'type' => 'anomaly.field_type.upload',
'config' => [
'folder' => 'documents'
]
],
...
];
...
, The form works fine. But the problem here is that I have to pick every field I need instead of skipping fields that I don't need!
@pooria I can’t test this while on my phone, but in your custom form builder you should be able to add
”*”
to$fields
to include all fields by default and then just add the fields you don’t want to your skips.Hope that helps!
