Define Resources once, get all configurations ready for CRUD panels 🚀
Get IDE hints - these are all PHP classes 😉
Avoid long, nested, hard-to-remember array configurations 🥱
Embrace the elegance of Object-Oriented API with Fluent Interface Pattern ⚙️

Installation

Via Composer

composer require figlabhq/crud-resource-for-backpack

Usage

Create a new class defining the fields required for your model. Here is how it'd look for standard Laravel User model:

<?php declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\CrudResources;

use FigLab\CrudResource\CrudResource;
use App\Models\User;
use FigLab\CrudResource\Fields\Email;
use FigLab\CrudResource\Fields\Password;
use FigLab\CrudResource\Fields\Select;
use FigLab\CrudResource\Fields\Text;

class UserCrudResource extends CrudResource
{
    public function fields(): array
    {
        return [
            Text::make('Name')
                ->sortable(),

            Email::make('Email'),

            Password::make('Password')
                ->size(6)
                ->onlyOnForms(),

            Password::make('Confirm Password', 'password_confirmation')
                ->size(6)
                ->onlyOnForms(),
        ];
    }
}

In your Crud controller, call the relevant methods:

<?php declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\CrudResources\User\UserCrudResource;

class UserCrudController extends CrudController
{
    private UserCrudResource $crudResource;

    public function setup()
    {
        $this->crud->setModel(\App\Models\User::class);
        $this->crud->setRoute(config('backpack.base.route_prefix') . '/users');
        $this->crud->setEntityNameStrings('user', 'users');

        $this->crudResource = new UserCrudResource($this->crud);
    }

    protected function setupListOperation(): void
    {
        $this->crudResource->buildList();
    }
    
    protected function setupCreateOperation(): void
    {
        $this->crud->setValidation(UserStoreRequest::class);

        $this->crudResource->buildCreateForm();
    }
    
    protected function setupUpdateOperation(): void
    {
        $this->crud->setValidation(UserUpdateRequest::class);

        $this->crudResource->buildUpdateForm();
    }
}

Enjoy a fully-functional CRUD panel 🎉
