Purpose of this package, is to allow quick and easy creation and triggering of modal forms via ajax.
Use composer to install the package.
composer require leantony/laravel_modal:dev-master
Add the service provider, in app.php.
Leantony\Modal\ServiceProvider::class
Publish the assets
# publish the javascript assets
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=public --provider="Leantony\Modal\ServiceProvider" --force
# publish the view
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Leantony\Modal\ServiceProvider"
The javascript files will be copied into the "public/vendor/leantony/modal" folder
The view will be copied to resources/views/vendor/leantony/modal
You can then reference the assets (bootstrap, jquery) on your page
A sample modal form....The bootform package used here, isnt really a necessity, so feel free to change this. Only used it because it allows for quick form markup generation in laravel.
But be sure to leave the form id of modal_form as is, since its referenced in javascript.
{!! BootForm::openHorizontal(['sm' => [4, 8], 'lg' => [2, 10]])->action($route)->class('form-horizontal')->id('modal_form')->method(isset($method) ? $method : 'POST') !!}
<div class="modal-header">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
<h4 class="modal-title">{{ ucwords($action . ' '. class_basename($model)) }}</h4>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
<div id="modal-notification"></div>
{!! BootForm::text('Title', 'title')->placeholder('Enter a title') !!}
{!! BootForm::textArea('Content', 'content')->placeholder('Enter some content') !!}
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save Changes</button>
</div>
{!! BootForm::close() !!}
A sample page...
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" media="screen" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css">
</head>
<body>

<!-- a link to a named route, that displays the modal form -->
<a href="{{ route('posts.create') }}" class="btn btn-default show_modal_form">New post</a>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('vendor/leantony/modal/modal.min.js') }}"></script>
<!-- initialize the modal js plugin -->
<script>
leantony.modal({});
</script>
<!-- Add the modal container to your layout. This is where the html for the modal form will be injected by the javascript ajax call. Put it ideally just before the footer -->
@include('modal::container')
<footer>
some text here
</footer>
</body>
</html>
You'll need to make a copy of the sample modal form provided, to your views, and edit as necessary. This will obviously be different depending on your needs.
In this case, the modal will be triggered on create action. For this example, It is assumed that named your modal form 'create.blade.php'
/**
* Display the view to create the resource
*
* @return Response
*/
public function create()
{
// use render so that only the html for the view is returned as opposed to the layout within which it is in
return view('posts.create', [
'route' => route('posts.store'),
'model' => Post::class,
'action' => 'create'
])->render();
}
check the variables in the form sample, to know what else can be passed into the modal view. Fee free to add your own
Add a link to your page, that will trigger the modal. Give the link a class of 'show_modal_form'
The class name is important as it instructs the javascript to send an ajax request to the link's href attribute for a view. Which will then be displayed on the page, as a modal.
When you click on the button, the modal should be displayed.
Your store action should return json. For example;
/**
* Store a newly created resource in storage.
*
* @param Request $request
* @return Response
*/
public function store(Request $request)
{
// quick validation. You can a form request for this
$this->validate($request, ['title' => 'required', 'content' => 'required|between:5,1000']);
// save the data
$post = Post::create($request->all());
// return json response. The message is, as it will be used to notify the user of their action
return new JsonResponse([
'success' => true,
'message' => 'record created',
], 200);
}
For validation, you can use a form request. Don't worry about the validation errors, as they will be displayed automatically on the modal form.
