Can final logic be elsewhere than on the Form itself?

[Einenlum]

Hi there,

First, thank you for your work. It really helps.

It seems to me that the only way right now to do something when the form is finally submitted, is to add logic in the onStep closure of the final step.

// CarRegistration.php

$form = Form::make($viewName, [
    'title' => 'Car Registration',
])->namespaced('car_registration')
    ->canNavigateBack(true);

$form->addStep(1, Step1::make());
$form->addStep(2, Step2::make());
$form->addStep(3, Step3::make());

$form->onStep('*', function (Form $form) {
    if ($form->request->get('submit') === 'reset') {
        $form->reset();
    }
});

$form->onStep($form->lastStep(), function (Form $form) {
    $data = $form->toArray();
    $form->reset();

    Car::create([
        'country' => $data['country'],
        'brand' => $data['brand'],
        'model' => $data['model'],
        'year' => $data['year'],
    ]);

    return redirect()->route('cars.index');
});

return $form;

I would like to have my logic in my controller (to avoid having logic in different places). Something like:

// CarRegistration.php

$form = Form::make($viewName, [
    'title' => 'Car Registration',
])->namespaced('car_registration')
    ->canNavigateBack(true);

$form->addStep(1, Step1::make());
$form->addStep(2, Step2::make());
$form->addStep(3, Step3::make());

$form->onStep('*', function (Form $form) {
    if ($form->request->get('submit') === 'reset') {
        $form->reset();
    }
});

return $form;

// CarRegistrationController.php

class CarRegistrationController extends Controller
{
    public function form(): Form
    {
        $form = CarRegistration::make('car-registration');
        if ($form->isOver()) {
            $data = $form->toArray();
            $form->reset();

            Car::create([
                'country' => $data['country'],
                'brand' => $data['brand'],
                'model' => $data['model'],
                'year' => $data['year'],
            ]);

            return redirect()->route('cars.index');
        }

        return $form;
    }
}

Is something like this planned or already possible?

Thanks!

Added onComplete method to newest release. reset is called automatically after your callback logic.

$form->onComplete(function($form){

    $values = $form->toCollection()->only([
        'country', 'brand', 'model', 'year'
    ]);

    Car::create($values->toArray());
    
    return redirect()->route('cars.index');
});

Happy Holidays!
