Admin Panel

Building Forms

Filament comes with a powerful form builder which can be used to create intuitive, dynamic, and contextual forms in the admin panel.

Forms have a schema, which is an array that contains many form components. The schema defines the form's fields, their validation rules, and their layout in the form.

Here is an example form configuration for a CustomerResource:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
Components\TextInput::make('name')->autofocus()->required(),
Components\TextInput::make('email')->email()->required(),
Components\Select::make('type')
->placeholder('Select a type')
->options([
'individual' => 'Individual',
'organization' => 'Organization',
]),
Components\DatePicker::make('birthday'),
])
->columns(2);
}

Please note: when building forms for resources, please ensure that you are using components within the Filament\Resources\Forms\Components namespace and not Filament\Forms\Components.

Fields

Resource field classes are located in the Filament\Resources\Forms\Components namespace.

All field components have access to the following customization methods:

Field::make($name)
->columnSpan($span = 1) // On large devices, this sets the number of columns that the field should span in the form.
->default($default) // Sets the default value for this field.
->dependable() // Reloads the form when this field is changed.
->disabled($disabled = false) // Make the field read-only.
->extraAttributes($attributes = []) // A key-value array of extra HTML attributes to pass to the field.
->helpMessage($message) // Sets an optional message below the field. It supports Markdown.
->hint($hint) // Sets an optional short message adjacent to the label. It supports Markdown.
->id($id) // Set the HTML ID of the field, which is otherwise automatically generated based on its name.
->label($label); // Set custom label text for with the field, which is otherwise automatically generated based on its name. It supports localization strings.

Checkbox

Checkbox::make($name)
->autofocus() // Autofocus the field.
->inline() // Render the checkbox inline with its label.
->stacked(); // Render the checkbox under its label.

Date Picker

DatePicker::make($name)
->autofocus() // Autofocus the field.
->displayFormat($format = 'F j, Y') // Set the display format of the field, using PHP date formatting tokens.
->firstDayOfWeek($day = 1) // Set the first day of the week in the calendar view, with 1 being Monday, and 0 or 7 being Sunday.
->format($format = 'Y-m-d') // Set the storage format of the field, using PHP date formatting tokens.
->maxDate($date) // Set the maximum date that can be selected.
->minDate($date) // Set the minimum date that can be selected.
->placeholder($placeholder) // Set the placeholder for when the field is empty. It supports localization strings.
->weekStartsOnMonday() // Set the first day of the week to Monday in the calendar view.
->weekStartsOnSunday(); // Set the first day of the week to Sunday in the calendar view.

Date-time Picker

DateTimePicker::make($name)
->autofocus() // Autofocus the field.
->displayFormat($format = 'F j, Y H:i:s') // Set the display format of the field, using PHP date formatting tokens.
->firstDayOfWeek($day = 1) // Set the first day of the week in the calendar view, with 1 being Monday, and 0 or 7 being Sunday.
->format($format = 'Y-m-d H:i:s') // Set the storage format of the field, using PHP date formatting tokens.
->maxDate($date) // Set the maximum date that can be selected.
->minDate($date) // Set the minimum date that can be selected.
->placeholder($placeholder) // Set the placeholder for when the field is empty. It supports localization strings.
->weekStartsOnMonday() // Set the first day of the week to Monday in the calendar view.
->weekStartsOnSunday() // Set the first day of the week to Sunday in the calendar view.
->withoutSeconds(); // Hide the seconds input.

File Upload

FileUpload::make($name)
->acceptedFileTypes($types = []) // Limit the type of files that can be uploaded using an array of mime types.
->avatar() // Make the field suitable for uploading and displaying a circular avatar.
->disk($disk) // Set a custom disk that uploaded files should be read from and written to.
->directory($directory) // Set a custom directory that uploaded files should be written to.
->image() // Allow only images to be uploaded.
->imageCropAspectRatio($ratio) // Crop images to this certain aspect ratio when they are uploaded, e.g: '1:1'.
->imagePreviewHeight($height) // Set the height of the image preview in pixels.
->imageResizeTargetHeight($height) // Resize images to this height (in pixels) when they are uploaded.
->imageResizeTargetWidth($width) // Resize images to this width (in pixels) when they are uploaded.
->loadingIndicatorPosition($position = 'right') // Set the position of the loading indicator.
->maxSize($size) // Set the maximum size of files that can be uploaded, in kilobytes.

->uploadProgressIndicatorPosition($position = 'right') // Set the position of the upload progress indicator.
->visibility($visibility = 'public'); // Set the visibility of uploaded files.

Please note, it is the responsibility of the developer to delete these files from the disk if they are removed, as Filament is unaware if they are depended on elsewhere. One way to do this automatically is observing a model event.

To customize Livewire's default file upload validation rules, please refer to its documentation.

Available values for the position methods can be found on Filepond's website.

Support for multiple file uploads is coming soon. For more information, please see our Development Roadmap.

Toggle

The onIcon() and offIcon() methods support the name of any Blade icon component, and passes a set of formatting classes to it. By default, the Blade Heroicons package is installed, so you may use the name of any Heroicon out of the box. However, you may create your own custom icon components or install an alternative library if you wish.

Toggle::make($name)
->autofocus() // Autofocus the field.
->inline() // Render the toggle inline with its label.
->offIcon($icon) // Set the icon that should be displayed when the toggle is off.
->onIcon($icon) // Set the icon that should be displayed when the toggle is on.
->stacked(); // Render the toggle under its label.

Validation

Filament provides a number of validation methods that can be applied to fields. Please refer to the Laravel Validation docs if you are unsure about any of these.

->acceptedFileTypes($types = []) // Accepts an array of mime types, file upload field only.
->confirmed($field = '{field name}Confirmation') // Text-based fields only.
->email() // Text input field only.
->image() // File upload field only.
->max($value) // Text input field only.
->maxDate($date) // Date-based fields only.
->maxLength($length) // Text-based fields only.
->maxSize($size) // In kilobytes, file upload field only.
->min($value) // Text input field only.
->minDate($date) // Date-based fields only.
->minLength($length) // Text-based fields only.
->minSize($size) // In kilobytes, file upload field only.
->nullable() // Applied to all fields by default.
->numeric() // Text input field only.
->required()
->requiredWith()
->same($field) // Text-based fields only.
->tel() // Text input field only.
->unique($table, $column = '{field name}', $exceptCurrentRecord = false)
->url() // Text input field only.

You may apply additional custom validation rules to any field using the rules() method:

Field($name)
->rules(['alpha', 'ends_with:a']);

Please note: when specifying resource field names in custom validation rules, you must prefix them with record..

Layout

Grid

By default, form fields are stacked on top of each other in one column. To change this across the entire form, you may chain the columns() method onto the form object:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
])
->columns(2);
}

Alternatively, you may customize the number of columns for a small part of the form using a Grid component:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Grid::make([
// ...
])->columns(2),
]);
}

Section

You may want to separate your fields into sections, each with a heading and subheading. To do this, you can use a Section component:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Section::make(
'Heading',
'Subheading',
[
// ...
],
),
]);
}

If you don't require a subheading, you may use the schema() method to declare the section schema late:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Section::make('Heading')
->schema([
// ...
]),
]);
}

You may use the columns() method to easily create a grid within the section:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Section::make(
'Heading',
'Subheading',
[
// ...
],
)->columns(2),
]);
}

Sections may be collapsible() to optionally hide content in long forms:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Section::make(
'Heading',
'Subheading',
[
// ...
],
)->collapsible(),
]);
}

You may collapse() sections by default:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Section::make(
'Heading',
'Subheading',
[
// ...
],
)->collapsed(),
]);
}

Fieldset

You may want to group fields into a Fieldset. Each fieldset has a label, a border, and a two-column grid:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Fieldset::make(
'Label',
[
// ...
],
),
]);
}

You may use the columns() method to customize the number of columns in the fieldset:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Fieldset::make(
'Label',
[
// ...
],
)->columns(3),
]);
}

Tabs

Some forms can be long and complex. You may want to use tabs to reduce the number that are available at once:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Tabs::make('Label')
->tabs([
Components\Tab::make(
'First Tab',
[
// ...
],
),
Components\Tab::make(
'Second Tab',
[
// ...
],
),
]),
]);
}

You may use the columns() method to easily create a grid within the tab:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Tabs::make('Label')
->tabs([
Components\Tab::make(
'Tab',
[
// ...
],
)->columns(2),
]),
]);
}

Group

Groups are used to wrap multiple associated form components. They have no effect on the form visually, but are useful for applying modifications to many fields at once:

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Group::make([
// ...
]),
]);
}

Placeholder

Placeholders can be used to render text-only "fields" within your forms. Each placeholder has a value, which is cannot be changed by the user.

use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
// ...
Components\Placeholder::make('website', 'filamentadmin.com'),
]);
}

Dependent Fields

Dependent fields are fields that are modified based on the value of another. For example, you could show a group of fields based on the value of a Select.

The first step to setting up dependent fields is to apply the dependable() method to the field that should be watched for changes. When the value of this field is changed, the whole form will reload:

Components\Select::make('type')
->placeholder('Select a type')
->options([
'individual' => 'Individual',
'organization' => 'Organization',
])
->dependable();

To modify fields based on the value of another, you may use the when() method. The first argument to this method is a callback that evaluates the $record object, and returns true or false depending on if the modifications should be applied. The second argument makes modifications to the current field. If no second argument is supplied, the field will only be shown when the callback in the first argument is true:

In this example, the fields in the group will only be shown when the type field is set to individual:

Components\Group::make([
// ...
])->when(fn ($record) => $record->type === 'individual');

Here, the company_number field will only be required when the type field is set to organization:

Components\TextInput::make('company_number')
->when(
fn ($record) => $record->type === 'organization',
fn ($field) => $field->required(),
);

Context Customization

You may customize forms based on the page they are used. To do this, you can chain the only() or except() methods onto any form component.

use App\Filament\Resources\CustomerResource\Pages;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
Components\TextInput::make('name')
->required()
->only(Pages\CreateCustomer::class),
]);
}

In this example, the name field will only() be displayed on the CreateCustomer page.

use App\Filament\Resources\CustomerResource\Pages;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Components;
use Filament\Resources\Forms\Form;
 
public static function form(Form $form)
{
return $form
->schema([
Components\TextInput::make('name')
->except(Pages\EditCustomer::class, fn ($field) => $field->required()),
]);
}

In this example, the name field will be required, except() on the EditCustomer page.

This is an incredibly powerful pattern, and allows you to completely customize a form contextually by chaining as many methods as you wish to the callback.

Developing Custom Components

To create a custom field, you may use:

php artisan make:filament-field CountrySelect --resource

This will create a new custom class and view for your field, which you may use in a form in the same way as any other field.

To create a generic form component, which may be commonly used for custom layouts, you may generate a class and view using:

php artisan make:filament-form-component SidebarLayout --resource

Alternatively, simple custom layouts may be created using a View component, and passing the name of a $view in your app:

Components\View::make($view);
