This laravel package allow you to save some form templates to apply them whenever you want. the utility is to avoid filling some inputs again and again, that most of the time have the same values, or maybe to apply some template based on the user choice.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require soufiene-slimi/laravel-form-template

Then run:

php artisan migrate

First of all you don't need to import anything since the package provide an alias.

// creating a new template named 'Template 1' with
// data ['name' => 'foo','email' => '[email protected]']
\Template::make('Template 1', [
    'name' => 'foo',
    'email' => 'foo@administrator.',
]);
// creating a new template named 'Template 1' using a model instance
\Template::makeForModel('Template 1', $user);
// creating a new template named 'Template 1' using a model instance
// and some extra data
\Template::makeForModel('Template 1', $user, ['status_id' => 2]);
// creating a new template named 'Template 1' using a model instance,
//some extra data, and keeping all the model attributes
\Template::makeForModel('Template 1', $user, ['foo' => 'bar'], false);

Note that you can configure the attributes that will be removed from a model during the template creation by publishing the configuration and updating the excluded key.

To apply a template, first you have to use the old() function in your input:

<input type="text" name="name" value="{{ old('name') }}" />

Then find the template and apply it

\Template::first()->apply();

Template is an instance of the Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model, this mean that you can use all the Laravel ORM features.

To publish the configuration file run:

php artisan vendor:publish  --provider=SoufieneSlimi\LaravelFormTemplate\LaravelFormTemplateServiceProvider
