Laravel - Easyfield

My little input builder for Laravel 6 and more

Installation

First install the package via composer

composer install ddrcha/easyfield

Then set reference to the package in adding two lines in your config/app.php file :

'providers' => [
	...
	Ddrcha\Easyfield\EasyfieldServiceProvider::class,
],

 'aliases' => [
	...
	'Easyfield' => Ddrcha\Easyfield\Facades\Easyfield::class,
],

Easyfield integrates by default templates for Bootstrap 5 and Materialize.

You must publish one of them to use the package :

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Ddrcha\Easyfield\EasyfieldServiceProvider" --tag=bootstrap4
OR
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Ddrcha\Easyfield\EasyfieldServiceProvider" --tag=materialize

All templates (one by input type) become so available in your "[project]/resources/views/vendor/easyfield" folder. You are free to modify it and add others views (that you can set with "template" option).

Icons

By default Easyfield use Font Awesome icons. If you want to use materialize icons, you must publish config file and modify the "icons" variable :

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Ddrcha\Easyfield\EasyfieldServiceProvider" --tag=config

(A file named "easyfield.php" will be added into your "[project]/config" folder).

Usage

Don't forget to include libraries you want to use (Bootstrap 5, Materialize, Datepicker, Select2, Font Awesome, etc...) in your view before using Easyfield.

The syntax

To display a field use this syntax :

{!! \Easyfield::input($input, $item, $errors) !!}
// $input (array) : All configuration options
// $item  (eloquent object) : main object used to complete the form
// $errors (array) : optional returns of validation form.

All available options in the detail :

Option Required Description
type X String. 'type=' of the field. Possible values : 'text', 'password', 'textarea', 'select', 'file', 'radio', 'checkbox', 'submit' (button), 'switch'
name X String. 'name=' of the field
label String. Text displayed before the input
required String. Display * before label if 'true', 'false' by default
icon String. Add icon before field. The used library can be setted in config file
class String. Additional classes spent to the input field
width Integer. Size of the field (in 12 grid columns layout). '12' by default
data X (only for 'select' type) Eloquent collection
note String. Display a small information after field
value String. If you want to set a particular value by default
additional Associative Array (key => value). Add all additional attributes you need !
template String. Use a custom template file (ex : "text2" will use "resources\views\vendor\easyfield\text2.blade.php")

Nota : For a best rendering insert all your fields into tags (if you use Bootstrap 4).
