Custom controller not working about laravel-app-settings HOT 5 CLOSED

I wanted to populate a select input using values from the database, so I needed to dynamically set the select options in the config.

Maybe there is a better way to change the values shown on the settings page programatically instead of hardcoding them in the config files?

class AppSettingController extends \QCod\AppSettings\Controllers\AppSettingController
{
    /**
     * Display the settings page
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\View\View
     */
    public function index()
    {
        $years = Year::all()->mapWithKeys(function ($item, $key) {
            return [$item->year => $item->year];
        })->all();
        config(['app_settings.sections.app.inputs.0.options' => $years]);
        return parent::index();
    }
}

@JBou Thanks for pointing it out.

Would you please tell me why you need to change the controller. What do you want to solve?

Its done 🎉

Now you can pass a closure in options to populate all the options from database:

[
    'type' => 'select',
    'name' => 'year',
    'label' => 'Year',
    'rules' => 'required',
    'options' => function() {
        return Year::pluck('year', 'year')->toArray()
    }
],

Have fun coding 👍
