It integrates seamlessly with **[HaloUI](https://github.com/AureDulvresse/halo-ui)** components, supports **JSON schemas**, and includes a **fluent, object-oriented API** for developers who prefer code-based configuration. The goal is simple: to enable developers to define forms once and render them anywhere—without repetitive HTML, inconsistent validation, or unnecessary boilerplate. --- Features -------- [](#features) - JSON schema-based form definitions - Seamless integration with HaloUI components - Fluent and expressive PHP API - Multi-step (wizard) form support - Built-in Laravel validation - Conditional and dynamic fields - More than 16 supported field types - Zero configuration required for HaloUI projects --- Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.2 or higher - Laravel 11.x or 12.x - HaloUI 2.0 or higher --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require ironflow/form-builder ``` (Optional) Publish the configuration file: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag=form-builder-config ``` --- Quick Start ----------- [](#quick-start) ### Using JSON Schema [](#using-json-schema) ``` ``` ### Using the Fluent PHP API [](#using-the-fluent-php-api) ``` use IronFlow\FormBuilder\FormSchema; $schema = FormSchema::make() ->title('User Registration') ->text('name')->label('Full Name')->required() ->text('email')->email()->label('Email Address')->required() ->text('password') ->type('password') ->label('Password') ->required() ->validation('min:8|confirmed') ->toArray(); return view('register', ['schema' => $schema]); ``` --- Supported Field Types --------------------- [](#supported-field-types) TypeDescriptionHaloUI ComponenttextText inputhalo.inputemailEmail inputhalo.inputpasswordPassword inputhalo.inputnumberNumber inputhalo.inputtextareaMulti-line texthalo.textareaselectDropdown listhalo.selectcheckboxCheckboxhalo.checkboxradioRadio buttonshalo.radioswitchToggle switchhalo.switchfileFile uploadhalo.file-uploaddateDate pickerhalo.date-pickertimeTime pickerhalo.time-pickercolorColor pickerhalo.color-pickerrangeRange sliderhalo.slider-rangeratingStar ratinghalo.rating--- Multi-Step Forms ---------------- [](#multi-step-forms) ``` $schema = FormSchema::make() ->title('Onboarding') ->step('Personal Info', function($step) { $step->text('first_name')->label('First Name')->required(); $step->text('last_name')->label('Last Name')->required(); $step->text('email')->email()->label('Email')->required(); }) ->step('Company Details', function($step) { $step->text('company_name')->label('Company')->required(); $step->select('company_size') ->label('Company Size') ->options([ '1-10' => '1–10 employees', '11-50' => '11–50 employees', '51-200' => '51–200 employees', ]) ->required(); }) ->toArray(); ``` --- Validation ---------- [](#validation) ### In Schema [](#in-schema) ``` $schema = FormSchema::make() ->text('email') ->label('Email') ->validation('required|email|unique:users,email') ->text('password') ->label('Password') ->validation('required|min:8|confirmed') ->toArray(); ``` ### In Controller [](#in-controller) ``` use IronFlow\FormBuilder\FormBuilder; public function store(Request $request) { $builder = app(FormBuilder::class); $builder->make($schema); $validated = $builder->validate($request->all()); if (empty($validated)) { return back() ->withInput() ->withErrors($builder->errors); } // Process validated data } ``` --- JSON-Based Forms ---------------- [](#json-based-forms) You can store form schemas as JSON and load them dynamically: ``` { "title": "Feedback Form", "description": "We'd love to hear from you", "fields": [ { "type": "textarea", "name": "comments", "label": "Comments", "rows": 5 }, { "type": "text", "name": "name", "label": "Your Name", "required": true, "validation": "required|min:3" }, { "type": "select", "name": "rating", "label": "Rating", "required": true, "options": { "5": "Excellent", "4": "Good", "3": "Average", "2": "Poor", "1": "Very Poor" } } ] } ``` ### Loading the Form [](#loading-the-form) ``` public function show($formId) { $json = file_get_contents(storage_path("forms/{$formId}.json")); $schema = json_decode($json, true); return view('forms.show', ['schema' => $schema]); } ``` --- Conditional Fields ------------------ [](#conditional-fields) ``` Individual Business ``` --- Custom Actions -------------- [](#custom-actions) ``` Save Draft Cancel Submit ``` --- Integration with HaloUI ----------------------- [](#integration-with-haloui) ``` Application Form ``` --- Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) ``` // config/form-builder.php return [ 'default_component' => 'halo', 'field_mapping' => [ 'text' => 'halo.input', 'email' => 'halo.input', 'select' => 'halo.select', // Extend or override as needed ], 'validation' => [ 'show_errors' => true, 'error_class' => 'text-red-600 text-sm mt-1', ], 'layout' => [ 'grid_cols' => 1, 'gap' => 6, ], ]; ``` --- API Reference ------------- [](#api-reference) ### FormSchema [](#formschema) ``` FormSchema::make() ->title(string $title) ->description(string $description) ->text(string $name) ->select(string $name) ->addField(BaseField $field) ->step(string $name, callable $callback) ->toArray(); ``` ### Field Methods [](#field-methods) ``` $field ->name(string $name) ->label(string $label) ->placeholder(string $placeholder) ->required(bool $required = true) ->default($value) ->validation(string|array $rules) ->attributes(array $attributes) ->toJson();
