Phalcon Forms

Multi Text

Phalcon (v4) Form element to group text inputs.

Component for specific use in multiple text fields in editing, not for creation. JavaScript must be used to generate text boxes on data-free forms.

Installation

Update your composer.json with following options:

{
	"repositories": [
		{
			"type": "vcs",
			"url": "https://github.com/daleffe/phalcon-forms-multitext"
		}
	],
    "require": {
		  "daleffe/phalcon-forms-multitext": "dev-master",
    }
}

I will check how to put this package in Packagist.org.

Usage

In your forms class use:

use Daleffe\Phalcon\Forms\Element\MultiText;

// Phones
$phones = new Text("phones[]", array('class' => 'form-control js-mask-phone', 'placeholder' => $this->translate->_('Phone')));
$phones->setLabel($this->translate->_('Phone'));
$phones->setFilters(['striptags', 'trim', 'string']);

// -> Edit
if (!is_null($entity)) {
	$entityPhones = array_filter($entity->phones);
	$entityAditionalPhones = array_filter($entity->aditional_phones);

	if (count($entityPhones) > 0) $phones->setDefault($entityPhones[0]);

	if (count($entityAditionalPhones) > 0) {
		$aditionalPhones = new MultiText("aditional_phones[]", ['div-class' => 'cg-phone', 'button-class' => 'remove-phone', 'class' => 'form-control js-mask-phone','placeholder' => $this->translate->_('Phone')]);
		$aditionalPhones->setDefault($entityAditionalPhones);

		$this->add($aditionalPhones);
	}
}

$this->add($phones);
...

So, in view use:

{{ form.render('aditional_phones[]') }}

This component use JQuery to control input fields:

addInputPhone();

function addInputPhone() {
    $(document).ready(function () {
        $(".add-more-phone").click(function () {
            var html = $(".phone").html();
            $(".after-add-more-phone").after(html);
        });
        $("body").on("click", ".remove-phone", function () {
            $(this).parents(".cg-phone").remove();
        });
    });
}

This will make the Phalcon correctly apply the filters, validators and bind() method to persist in the database.
