FORM_MODE.md

Form Mode

the Form Mode allow you run your Tinker code with form.

How To Use

Write the Tinker code normally, and name the variable that needs to be converted into a form with a prefix.

for example:

$form_email = 'pmoore@example.net';
$form_password = 'secret';

$user = User::where('email', $form_email)->first();
$user->password = bcrypt($form_password);

$user->save();

$user;

the code will create two text fields in the form

Fields

text field

example:

$form_email = [
    'label' => 'Email',
    'description' => 'the email field description',
    'value' => 'user@example.com',
    'type' => 'text',
]

• value is required
• type can be text email number etc, it’s same with <input/> type property

also you can just use

$form_email = 'user@example.com';

is same as

$form_email = [
    'value' => 'user@example.com',
];

select field

example:

$form_lang = [
    'label' => 'Language',
    'description' => 'the language you should choose',
    'value' => 'golang',
    'type' => 'select',
    'options' => [
        [
            'label' => 'PHP',
            'value' => 'php',
        ],
        [
            'label' => 'C++',
            'value' => 'cplusplus',
        ],
        [
            'label' => 'Go',
            'value' => 'golang',
        ]
    ]
];

• value is required
• type should be select
• options is same with the <option/> tag in <select/>

checkbox field

example:

$form_is_admin = [
    'label' => 'Is Admin',
    'description' => 'the user is admin or not',
    'value' => false,
    'type' => 'checkbox',
]

• value is required, and must be true or false
• type should be checkbox

Prefix

the default prefix is form_, and you can also define yours in the VScode setinggs
