Iam new to yii. I am developing customer project app. I have a view wherein iam displaying the data from both the models, customer and projects.
How do i create a form to add new projects?
my project is here
To display project data in customer view, iam using
$query=Projects::find()
->where(['projects_clients_id'=> $model->customer_id]);
$dataProvider = new ActiveDataProvider([
'query' => $query,
'pagination' => [
'pageSize' => 20,
],
]);
echo GridView::widget([
'dataProvider' => $dataProvider,
]);
You can render several model and/or dataProvider in a view (properly constructed)
eg:
return $this->render('viewTestMulti', [
'modelOne' =>$modelOne,
'dataProviderTwo' => $providerTwo,
'dataProviderThree' => $providerThree,
'modeFour' => $modelFour,
]);
And then you can use a view with several gridView related to proper dataProvider and several forms everyone with a proper action
so when you press the specified submit you invoke the proper controller action
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
use yii\widgets\ActiveForm;
?>
<?php $formOne = ActiveForm::begin();
$formOne->action= yii\helpers\Url::to('ControllerOne\create');
?>
<?= $formOne->field($modelOne, 'name') ?>
<?= $formOne->field($modelOne, 'email') ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
<?php $formFour = ActiveForm::begin();
$formFour->action= yii\helpers\Url::to('ControllerFour\create');
?>
<?= $formFour->field($modelFour, 'name_four') ?>
<?= $formFour->field($modelFour, 'email_four') ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
I hope this could be useful
You have all the documentation about ActiveForms and I recommend, if you are new in Yii2 to use The Definitive Guide to Yii 2.0, here the Forms Section
This is a basic form:
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
use yii\widgets\ActiveForm;
?>
<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'name') ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'email') ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>

I would like to know how can I add data to an ActiveForm like this:
<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'name') ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'email') ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
.
$data = ["username"=>"test"] as property "username"
I would like to send something like {name:name, email:email, ..., username:data}
you can use hidden input of \yii\helpers\Html class like follows:
<?= Html::hiddenInput('username', $value = $data['username']) ?>
or if you want it to be filled by users, you can use like this:
<?= Html::textInput('username') ?>
i have a simple question, that is how can i change the attributes values of a a field of an ActiveForm in Yii2
For example:
The following code :
<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'name'); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'email') ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
generates this :
<input id="testform-email" class="form-control" name="TestForm[email]" aria-required="true" type="text">
I want to change the name and id attributes to a custom value.
Thanks.
you could assign directly the attribute you need this way
<?= $form->field($model, 'name')->textInput(['id' => 'your_id', 'name' => 'your_name']); ?>
I need my signup form with email input to work wherever I want on the site.
I have an EmailsController that has add() and will add an email when I am on the add page.
How do I get the layout for Emails/Add.ctp to be injected into my home page and wherever I like while keeping the functionality and giving feedback to a user?
<div>
<?= $this->Element('upone_scriptimports'); ?>
<?= $this->Form->create() ?>
<?php echo $this->Form->control('email'); ?>
<?= $this->Form->button(__('Submit'), ['class'=>'btn btn-default text-right right']) ?>
<?= $this->Form->end() ?>
</div>
You will use elements, see CookBook
Put your code in here: src/Template/Element/Emails/add.ctp, you use your element like this echo $this->element('Emails/add');
Also add an action attribute to your form, specifying the controller
and action that will process the data.
<?= $this->Form->create(null, [
'url' => ['controller' => 'Articles', 'action' => 'publish']
]); ?>
<?= $this->Form->control('email'); ?>
<?= $this->Form->button(__('Submit'), [
'class' => 'btn btn-default text-right right'
]); ?>
<?= $this->Form->end(); ?>

I learn Yii2 and I decided to get acquainted with the work of technology Pjax on site: http://blog.neattutorials.com/yii2-pjax-tutorial/. There is example "Multiple blocks". But it is implemented as a example version, and is not quite correct. It is written below. In this example in one action actionMultiple calculating string and key in one place, but it must be relised into different actions. So I decided to do it right but collided with the problem that when I click on the link it redirect me to a new page with the generation of a string or key. I need to do it in same page without reloading.
Controller:
public function actionMultiple()
{
$security = new Security();
$randomString = $security->generateRandomString();
$randomKey = $security->generateRandomKey();
return $this->render('multiple', [
'randomString' => $randomString,
'randomKey' => $randomKey,
]);
}
public function actionString()
{
$security = new Security();
$randomString= $security->generateRandomString();
return $this->render('_randomString', [
'randomString' => $randomString,
]);
}
public function actionKey()
{
$security = new Security();
$randomKey = $security->generateRandomKey();
return $this->render('_randomKey', [
'randomKey' => $randomKey,
]);
}
view multiple:
<?php
use yii\widgets\Pjax;
use yii\bootstrap\Html;
?>
<div class="col-sm-12 col-md-6">
<?php Pjax::begin(); ?>
<?= Html::a("Generate Random String", ['site/string'], ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-primary']) ?>
<h3><?= $randomString ?></h3>
<?php Pjax::end(); ?>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-12 col-md-6">
<?php Pjax::begin(); ?>
<?= Html::a("Generate Random Key", ['site/key'], ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-primary']) ?>
<h3><?= $randomKey ?><h3>
<?php Pjax::end(); ?>
</div>
view _randomString:
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
?>
<?= Html::a("Generate Random String", ['site/string'], ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-primary']) ?>
<h3><?= $randomString ?></h3>
view _randomKey:
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
?>
<?= Html::a("Generate Random Kay", ['site/key'], ['class' => 'btn btn-lg btn-primary']) ?>
<h3><?= $randomKey ?><h3>
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I want to store the rendered html output of a form view which uses ActiveForm and Html Helper into a variable within my Controller.
I've tried storing result of a renderPartial directly to a variable, which did not work:
$htmlform = Yii::$app->controller->renderPartial('_form', ['model' => $model]);
I've also tried using output buffering to echo the output into a variable, but I could not store the output:
ob_start();
echo Yii::$app->controller->renderPartial('_form', ['model' => $model]);
$htmlform = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
View File: _form.php
<?php
use yii\helpers\Html;
use yii\widgets\ActiveForm;
/* #var $this yii\web\View */
/* #var $model frontend\models\Epic */
/* #var $form yii\widgets\ActiveForm */
?>
<div class="epic-form">
<?php $form = ActiveForm::begin(); ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'closed')->textInput() ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'title')->textInput(['maxlength' => true]) ?>
<?= $form->field($model, 'organizationid')->textInput() ?>
<div class="form-group">
<?= Html::submitButton($model->isNewRecord ? Yii::t('app', 'Create') : Yii::t('app', 'Update'), ['class' => $model->isNewRecord ? 'btn btn-success' : 'btn btn-primary']) ?>
</div>
<?php ActiveForm::end(); ?>
If anyone has an idea on a solution that would be great..
I have tried this way in a simple ControllerAction and work right ...in var_dump($test) there the aspected result
public function actionView($id)
{
$test = $this->renderPartial('_form', [
'model' => $this->findModel($id),
]);
var_dump($test);
}
