FormGeneratorExercice

Form generator project for teaching purposes.

That set of classes allows you to generate a form and hydrate that form, according to your needs.

Creation

Create a use case of the Form Base class which will represent a concrete form. Example given in Form.php:

    public function prepareFormBuilder(): void
    {   $parameters = new ParametersEnvelop();
        $this->addField($parameters->setName("email")->setType("email")->setLabel("Email")->getParameters())
            ->addField($parameters->clean()->setName("username")->setType("text")->getParameters())
            ->addField($parameters->clean()->setName("password")->setType("password")->setLabel("Password")->getParameters())
            ->addField($parameters->clean()->setName("description")->setType("textarea")->setLabel("Description")->getParameters())
            ->addField($parameters->clean()->setName("submit")->setType("button")->setLabel("Submit")->getParameters());
    }

Here you can generate on demand the kind of html tags.

To cast the form

$form = new Form("service.php");
$form = $form->getForm();

Where service.php is the targeted action and $form will give us the string

Hydration

To hydrate the object:

$form = new Form("service.php");
$form = $form->hydrate(
        'email' => '[email protected]',
        'username' => 'apocalypse',
        'password' => 'VDG$DSFWEf',
        'description' => 'This is the description'
);

Inheritance

You can also inherit an existing form and modify the previous fields. Example in FormEdit.php:

    public function prepareFormBuilder(): void
    {
        $this->removeField('description');
    }
