#Features explained

#✅ Form Configurations (FormTypes)

You can create different FormTypes, each with its own set of available FieldTypes and required **GeneralFields
**.
This allows you to customize forms for different application scenarios.

For example, you might have custom forms for requests and custom forms for applications. Now you can create two
different FormTypes:

  • One requires a general field for the study location
  • The other does not include this field

This makes the form system flexible and reusable across various use cases.


#CustomFields

A CustomField consists of:

  • A FieldType – Defines the type and logic of the field (e.g. TextType, SelectType, etc.).
  • A set of Options – Configuration values such as placeholder text, min/max values, selectable choices, etc.
  • A FieldTypeView – Which can change on a different ViewMode

#TypeOptions

The TypeOptions are options components which can add to a field-type to modify the components.
The TypeOptions can automatically apply some effects if the
return $input = $this->makeComponent(TextInput::class, $record); is used in the TypeView.

#Using TypeOptions in a CustomFieldType

You can add extra type options to your custom field by overriding extraTypeOptions() or generalTypeOptions():

// MyType.php  
public function extraTypeOptions(): array  {    
    return [    
       'alpine_mask' => AlpineMaskOption::make()  
           ->modifyDefault(fn($oldDefault) => '...'),    
       'max_length' => MaxLengthOption::make()  
           ->modifyOptionComponent(fn($component) => $component->columnStart(1)),      
       'min_length' => MinLengthOption::make(),    
    ];    
}  
  • Each key represents the option name.
  • The value is an instance of a TypeOption, usually created via ::make().
  • You can customize how the option behaves using methods like modifyDefault() or modifyOptionComponent().

#Use FastTypeOption

FastTypeOption allows you to quickly add custom options directly in your FieldType and react to them in your
FieldTypeView.

//MyType.php  
public function extraTypeOptions(): array  {    
    return [    
       'my_option' => FastTypeOption::makeFast(    
           default: false,    
           fn($name) => Toggle::make($name)  
       )  
    ];    
}  
// MyTypeView.php  
$myOption = $this->getOptionParameter($record, 'my_option');  
  
/** @var TextInput $input */    
$input = $this->makeComponent(TextInput::class, $record);  
  
if($myOption){  
    $input->modify(...);  
}  
  
return $input  

#OptionsGroups

OptionsGroups help organize multiple related TypeOptions into logical collections,
making your field configuration cleaner and easier to manage.

In the image TypeOptions are marked red and the OptionGroups are marked blue.

#How to use OptionGroups?

//MyType.php  
public function extraTypeOptions(): array  {    
    return [    
        TypeOptionGroup::make('MyGroup', [    
           'alpine_mask' => AlpineMaskOption::make(),    
          'max_length' => MaxLengthOption::make(),    
          'min_length' => MinLengthOption::make(),  
       ]),  
       ValidationTypeOptionGroup::make(),    
        LayoutOptionGroup::make()  
           ->mergeTypeOptions([    
              'my_option' => MyTypeOption::make(),    
          ])  
          ->removeTypeOption('...'),  
    ];    
}  

#Rules: Events and Triggers

Rules can be divided into events and triggers. Triggers cause events to be executed. A rule can consist of multiple
triggers that can be combined using 'AND' or 'OR' logic and can execute multiple events.

#Predefined Events

  • HideEvent
  • VisibleEvent
  • DisabledEvent
  • RequiredEvent
  • ChangeOptionsEvent

#Predefined Triggers

  • IsInfolistTrigger
  • ValueEqualsRuleTrigger
  • AlwaysRuleTrigger

#Embed CustomForms

You can embed CustomForms or their answers in various parts of your application using specialized components. Below are
examples of usage patterns and customization options.


#Testing
