It allows form creation, input validation and filtering and also helps rendering it as HTML in your views. The goal is to create a `Form` object that can be worked in the different stages of an HTTP request. This package is compliant with PSR-2 code standards and PSR-4 autoload standards. It also applies the [semantic version 2.0.0](http://semver.org) specification. Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require slick/form ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) One of the greatest features of `Slick/Form` package is to facilitate the creation and usage of HTML forms. You probably will need forms in your application and you will need to create all the HTML for every input, validate that input in submission process and filter the input before using it. `Slick/Form` helps you with that. All you need is to define your form and its validators and filters and you will have HTML rendering, input validation and filter. ### Form definition [](#form-definition) Lets start with a very simple example: A login form (`login-form.yml`) ``` id: login-form elements: username: type: text label: Username validates: notEmpty: Username cannot be empty filters: - text password: type: password label: Password validates: notEmpty: Password cannot be empty remember: type: checkbox label: Remember me on this computer filters: - boolean buttonGroup: type: fieldset elements: submit: type: submit value: Sign in attributes: class: btn btn-primary ``` In your application controller ``` use Slick\Form\FormRegistry; class LoginController { public function login() { $form = FormRegistry::getForm('login-form.yml'); return compact('form'); } } ``` ### Form HTML rendering [](#form-html-rendering) And in your view: ``` Login form ``` the result should be as follows: [![Form output](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/slickframework/form/master/img/login-1.png)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/slickframework/form/master/img/login-1.png) ### Form submission/validation [](#form-submissionvalidation) Now with our form in place we need to detect if the form was submitted and if its valid: ``` use Slick\Form\FormRegistry; class LoginController { public function login() { $form = FormRegistry::getForm('login-form.yml'); if ($form->wasSubmitted()) { if ($form->isValid()) { $data = $form->getValues(); // An associative array with submitted values // Do stuff with the values } else { // data is not valid } } return compact('form'); } } ``` The `Form::wasSubmitted()` and `Form::isValid()` methods encapsulate the retrieve of submitted data and the validation process through all input validation chains. The `Form::getValues()` will return an associative array with submitted values filtered. For example the `$data['remember']` is a `Boolean` value because it will use the `boolean` filter as we set in the `login-form.yml` definitions file.
