Documentation

Usage

SelectInlineCreate field can be used by executing method selectInlineCreate on Admin/Form.

use Encore\Admin\Auth\Database\Administrator;
use Encore\Admin\Facades\Admin;
use Encore\Admin\Form;

Admin::form(new Administrator(), function (Form $form){
    $form->selectInlineCreate('manager', 'Manager');
    ...;
});

While entity is created it looks for the option by searching url with id parameter in query string. Use SelectResponse class and static function get to return proper response.

use Encore\SelectInlineCreate\Form\SelectResponse;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Request;

class SearchController{
    public function search(){
        $id = Request::offsetGet('id');

        // SelectResponse::get($entity, $callback)
        // $entity can be null, then SelectResponse will return suitable message
        // in $callback return array with 'id' and 'text' keys. 
        // js will create an option based on this

        return SelectResponse::get(
            Administrator::query()->find($id),
            function(Administrator $administrator){
                return ['id' => $administrator->id, 'text' => $administrator->name];
            });
    }
}

Methods

SelectInlineCreate has same methods as regular Select from Admin

1. setSearchUrl

If ajax(...) function it's not used so setSearchUrl should be used.

//Example
$form->selectInlineCrate(...)
    ->setSearchUrl(route('manager.search'))
    ->options(...);

If ajax(...) is used then setSearchUrl is executed inside of ajax and searching url is the same as ajax.

$form->selectInlineCrate(...)
    ->ajax(route('manager.search'));

Search url can be overwritten if it's set by ajax function. To do that setSearchUrl must be executed after ajax.

$form->selectInlineCrate(...)
    ->ajax(route('manager.search-by-query'))
    ->setSearchUrl(route('manager.search-by-id'));
