Silverstripe Taskforms
======================

[](#silverstripe-taskforms)

Utility to make Silverstripe tasks more interactive and better looking.

Silverstripe 4+

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require "hamaka/silverstripe-taskforms"

```

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Adds some basic CSS to task output.
- Adds utility methods to give colour to alteration messages (echoGood, echoNotice, echoError etc).
- Adds a pattern to generate a simple form to populate variable input (an array of variables is turned into a form).
- Adds a way to block execution when not all required input is present.
- The default textfields in the form can be overruled with more complex Silverstripe FormFields.
- Adds a pattern to be able to force a dry run of the task before execution.
- Adds utility method to dump array output as a table.
- Overrides the default Silverstripe TaskRunner to allow /dev/tasks to be organized in categories. Categories can be added with TaskCategoryProviders in the same way Silverstripe PermissionProvider works.

Usage
