Page - Search form

This is a form containing inputs with the signature of the search query string. Additionally, it generates custom build options. It's a separate component of the delegate class \App\Admin\Delegates\SearchForm. The delegate also includes assistants like inDefault for building ready-made tables.

use App\Admin\Delegates\SearchForm;

return $page->card(
	$card->search_form(
		$searchForm->id(),
		...,
		$searchForm->at(),
	),
)
//OR
return $page->card(
	$card->search_form(
		$searchForm->inDefault(
			...,
		),
	),
)

For convenient searching, a small set of inputs is supported. Each input inherits the functionality of form inputs and therefore works almost identically to them. However, there's a distinction: after the input name and its label, the third parameter indicates the type of comparison or the function that will process the builder.

When a property or method starts with in_[input method]_*, a magical addition occurs, allowing you to specify a name in the model or property name, such as in_input_name. If this is a method, then the first parameter will be the label setting, like so: ->in_input_name('Name of row', string|callable $condition).

• between - The search must be between the input value
• not_between - The search must not be between the input value

Custom comparison

You can define your own input behavior by passing a Closure instead of the comparison type:

$card->search_form(
	$searchForm->input('name', 'Search by name', function ($builder, $value, $key) {
		return $builder->where('name', 'like', '%' . $value . '%');
	}),
)
