Usage

Form Builder

add formFields function to model

public function formFields() {
    return [
        "*"=>[ // wildcard will be applied to all elements 
            "options"=>
            ["style"=>"color:red!important"]
        ],
        "parent_id"=>[ // "parent_id" is the name attribute
            "type"=>"select", // input type (e.g. "select" will look for "cSelect")
            "label"=>"Parent", // label text
            "data"=>User::pluck('full_name','id'), // [ONLY FOR select] you can write any data source that laravel collective accepts
            "options"=>[ // optional
                "required"=>false // optional make input optional
                // ... and other "laravel collective" options and dom parameters can be used in here
            ]
        ],
        "full_name"=>[
            "type"=>"text",
            "label"=>"Full Name",
        ],
        "email"=>[
            "type"=>"text",
            "label"=>"E-mail",
        ],
        "password"=>[
            "type"=>"password",
            "label"=>"Password",
        ],
    ];
}

Generate Form

In your blade file you can use like this

{!!Form::model($model,['url'=>"/post"])!!}
{!!$model->generateForm()!!}
{!!Form::cSubmit()!!}
{!!Form::close()!!}

or

{!!Form::open(['url'=>"/post"])!!}
{!!$model->generateForm()!!}
{!!Form::cSubmit()!!}
{!!Form::close()!!}

if you want to exclude one or more elements in one form just pass option _exclude with array of fields name

{!!$model->generateForm(["_exclude"=>["full_name","another_filed_name"]])!!}

Auto generate form fields

$ php artisan laravelmacros:formfields {tablename}

it will ask you some questions then give you formFields function code to copy into model file

Form Macros

These macros extended from laravel collective and can be used in model binding too.

Value of the input will be (in order) ;

1. Session Flash Data (Old Input)
2. Data From Current Request (via Request::input method)
3. Explicitly Passed Value
4. Model Attribute Data

// variable names stand for paramaters with default values

Form::cText($name,$label,$placeholder=null,$options=[]);

Form::cColor($name,$label,$options=[]);

Form::cTextarea($name,$label,$placeholder=null,$options=[]);

Form::cNumber($name,$label,$options=[]);

Form::cEmail($name,$label,$placeholder=null,$options=[]);

Form::cPassword($name,$label,$placeholder="*******",$options=[]);

Form::cFile($name,$label,$options=[]);

Form::cCheckbox($name,$label,$value=1,$checked=null);

Form::cRadio($name,$label,$value,$checked=null);

Form::cSubmit($label="Submit",$class="");

Form::cSelect($name,$label,$data,$options=[]);
