Basic Usage

The great Laravel auto discovery package will register for you both the service provider and the Facade after installation., _(*4)

Use Form facade in your blade views to generate the form fields, _(*5)

    {{
        Form::fields(function($form){
           $form->textField()->label("Clients Name")->name("name")
           $form->numberField()->label("AccountBalance")->name("accountBalance")->step(0.5);
           $form->button()->text('Create Client')->icon('fa fa-user');
        })->action(route("clients.store"))->method("POST")
    }}

• Basically the form has most of the field types the would expect namely;
  • $form->textField()
  • $form->numberField()
  • $form->emailField()
  • $form->numberField()
  • $form->passwordField() Every field extends the base field Lawma\Forms\Field and has access to setters like the field name, field type.

Setting Models On Forms

You can set the model on a form, this can be useful when editing records $form->model($user) You can as well as set the model on a specific field in rare circumstances where the form is using multiple fields $form->textField()->model($user)->name('name'), _(*6)

Customizing Views

Out of the box , Laravel-Forms uses bootstrap 4 form fields, but you can publish them and customize them in which ever you want, _(*7)
