Usage

Input and textarea elements

The minimum requirement for an input or textarea is the name attribute.

<x-form-input name="company_name" />

Optionally you can add a label attribute, which can be computed as well.

<x-form-input name="company_name" label="Company name" /> <x-form-input name="company_name" :label="trans('forms.company_name')" />

You can also choose to use a placeholder instead of a label, and of course you can change the type of the element.

<x-form-input type="email" name="current_email" placeholder="Current email address" />

By default every element shows validation errors but you can hide them if you want.

<x-form-textarea name="description" :show-errors="false" />

Default value

You can use the default attribute to specify the default value of the element.

<x-form-textarea name="motivation" default="I want to use this package because..." />

Binding a target

Instead of setting a default value, you can also pass in a target, like an Eloquent model. Now the component will get the value from the target by the name.

<x-form-textarea name="description" :bind="$video" />

In the example above, where $video is an Eloquent model, the default value will be $video->description.

Binding a target to multiple elements

You can also bind a target by using the @bind directive. This will bind the target to all elements until the @endbind directive.

<x-form> @bind($video) <x-form-input name="title" label="Title" /> <x-form-textarea name="description" label="Description" /> @endbind </x-form>

You can even mix targets!

<x-form> @bind($user) <x-form-input name="full_name" label="Full name" /> @bind($userProfile) <x-form-textarea name="biography" label="Biography" /> @endbind <x-form-input name="email" label="Email address" /> @endbind </x-form>

Select elements

Besides the name attribute, the select element has a required options attribute, which should be a simple key-value array.

$countries = [ 'be' => 'Belgium', 'nl' => 'The Netherlands', ];
<x-form-select name="country_code" :options="$countries" />

If you want a select element where multiple options can be selected, add the multiple attribute to the element. If you specify a default, make sure it is an array. This applies to bound targets as well.

<x-form-select name="country_code" :options="$countries" multiple :default="['be', 'nl']" />

Checkbox elements

Checkboxes have a default value of 1, but you can customize it as well.

<x-form-checkbox name="subscribe_to_newsletter" label="Subscribe to newsletter" />

If you have a fieldset of multiple checkboxes, you can group them together with the form-group component. This component has an optional label attribute and you can set the name as well. This is a great way to handle the validation of arrays. If you disable the errors on the individual checkboxes, it will one show the validation errors once. The form-group component has a show-errors attribute that defaults to true.

<x-form-group name="interests" label="Pick one or more interests"> <x-form-checkbox name="interests[]" :show-errors="false" value="laravel" label="Laravel" /> <x-form-checkbox name="interests[]" :show-errors="false" value="tailwindcss" label="Tailwind CSS" /> </x-form-group>

Radio elements

Radio elements behave exactly the same as checkboxes, except the show-errors attribute defaults to false as you almost always want to wrap multiple radio elements in a form-group.

You can group checkbox and radio elements on the same horizontal row by adding an inline attribute to the form-group element.

<x-form-group name="notification_channel" label="How do you want to receive your notifications?" inline> <x-form-checkbox name="notification_channel" value="mail" label="Mail" /> <x-form-checkbox name="notification_channel" value="slack" label="Slack" /> </x-form-group>
