How to use components :

$components = [

        'type' => 'text', // required
        'label' => null, // optional
        'value' => null, // optional
        'default' => null, // optioal
        'options' => [], // optional and this only for checkbox, radio, select, select2
        'attributes' => [], // optional
    ],
    ...
    'comp-n' => [
        'type' => 'select',
        'options' => [
            'one', 'two', 'three',
        ],
        'attributes' => [
            'required' => true,
            'class' => 'input-select',
        ]
    ]
];

Form::create([...])->setComponents($components)->setName('form1');

Add global properties :

Forms::create([...])
    ->setComponents([...])
    ->addGlobalProperties([
        'required' => '*', // implemented to all components, you can use empty array []
        'class:input-select' => ['province', 'city', 'region'],
        'data-image:landscape' => ['image', 'cover'],
    ])
    ->setName('form1');

// the result all of defined components will get what you write in key of the array
// example for : 'data-image:landscape' => ['image', 'cover']
// the result  :
/**
 * <input type="file" name="image" data-image="landscape" />
 * <input type="file" name="cover" data-image="landscape" />
 */

Add custom component :

• Create a Class, you can extends a class from 'LiveCMS\Form\Components\BaseComponent' class in /vendor/livecms/forms/src/Components/BaseComponent.php Since it contains an abstract method render(), you have to define your own render() method. You can also see the example from available components or extends from it. See all files in folder /vendor/livecms/forms/src/Components
• Define your custome components in 'form' config file : 'components' => [ 'text' => \App\Forms\CustomeTextbox::class, 'image' => \App\Forms\CustomeImage::class, ],

Use Validation Script

Forms::create([...])->setComponents([...])->useValidation()->setName('form1');

You can disable validation by :, _(*6)

Forms::create([...])->setComponents([...])->useValidation(false)->setName('form1');

Note : by default, validation script require jquery validation js, _(*7)

Custom Validation

• Create your own javascript file
• Define it in 'form' config file : php 'scripts' => [ 'validation' => '/path/to/javascript/file', ],

Add custom scripts

• Create your own javascript file
• Define it in 'form' config file, but use other name despite 'validation' because it is reserved only for validation : php 'scripts' => [ 'validation' => '/path/to/javascript/file', 'customscript' => '/path/to/javascript/file', ],
• Call it php Forms::create([...])->setComponents([...])->addScript('customscript')->setName('form1');

If you want to cancel adding script, fill second argument with 'false':, _(*8)

->addScript('script_name', false)

Fill form with datas

$components = [
    'name' => ['type' => 'text'],
    'email' => ['type' => 'email'],
];
$datas = ['name' => 'Mokhamad Rofiudin', 'email' => 'mokh@rofiudin.com'];
Form::create([...])
    ->setComponents($components)
    ->fill($datas)
    ->setName('form1')
    ->render();
