FieldTypes plugin for CakePHP
=============================

[](#fieldtypes-plugin-for-cakephp)

> Note: This is a non-stable plugin for CakePHP 3.x at this time. It is currently under development and should be considered experimental.

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

[](#installation)

You can install this plugin into your CakePHP application using [composer](http://getcomposer.org).

The recommended way to install composer packages is:

```
composer require leoruhland/cakephp-fieldtypes

```

Now load the plugin with the command:

```
bin/cake plugin load -r -b FieldTypes
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can use the FieldTypes extending core FormHelper with `BootstrapUI.Form`then setting the widgets you want to use.

```
$this->loadHelper('Form', [
    'className' => 'BootstrapUI.Form',
    'widgets' => [
        //Date
        'flatpickr' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\FlatpickrWidget', '_view'],
        'bootstrap-datepicker' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapDatepickerWidget', '_view'],
        'bootstrap-datetimepicker' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapDatetimepickerWidget', '_view'],

        //Color
        'bootstrap-colorpicker' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapColorpickerWidget', '_view'],

        //Number
        'bootstrap-touchspin' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapTouchspinWidget', '_view'],

        //Boolean
        'bootstrap-switch' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapSwitchWidget', '_view'],

        //Content
        'summernote' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\SummernoteWidget', '_view'],
        'wysiwygjs' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\WysiwygjsWidget', '_view'],

        //Select
        'bootstrap-select' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\BootstrapSelectWidget', '_view'],
        'select2' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\Select2Widget', '_view'],

        //Other
        'stringtoslug' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\StringToSlugWidget', '_view'],
        'textcount' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\TextCounterWidget', '_view'],
    ]
]);
```

You can override default widgets too.

```
$this->loadHelper('Form', [
    'className' => 'BootstrapUI.Form',
    'widgets' => [
        'date' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\FlatpickrWidget', '_view'],
        'select' => ['FieldTypes\View\Widget\Select2Widget', '_view']
    ]
]);
```

And then, using it:

```
$this->Form->input('some_field', ['type' => 'summernote']);
```

It also works nice with CakeAdmin [formFields](http://cakemanager.org/docs/cakeadmin/1.0/tutorials-and-examples/adding-posttypes/#formfields).

```
public function postType() {
	return [
		'formFields' => [
			'some_field' => [
				'type' => 'summernote',
			],
		]
	];
};
```
