# MForm – REDAXO Addon

![Poster](https://github.com/FriendsOfREDAXO/mform/blob/assets/screen_mform8.png?raw=true?2)

MForm takes the pain out of building REDAXO module inputs. Instead of writing raw HTML form markup, everything gets defined in clean PHP — from a simple text field to fully nested, copy-paste-capable repeaters with conditional logic.

Not just for modules: MForm also extends **YForm** and **rex_form** with custom widgets like the custom link field, image lists, or the ColorSwatch picker.

## What MForm does

- Builds module input forms via a fluent PHP API (`MForm::factory()->addTextField(...)->...->show()`)
- Provides a **Flex Repeater** for dynamically repeatable form rows — supporting nesting, copy/paste, and per-item enable/disable
- Keeps dropdown-based controls usable inside the **Flex Repeater** by allowing open menus to overflow their item wrapper when needed
- Ships reusable form logic via a **Template API** (`registerTemplate`, `fromTemplate`, `applyTemplate`)
- Adds helper classes for Repeater output: `MFormRepeaterHelper::decode()`, `filterByField()`, `sortByField()`, `groupByField()`, `limitItems()`
- Adds YForm value types: `custom_link`, `custom_link_multi`, `color_swatch`
- Resolves readable labels for stored dataset links like `rex-<table>://<id>` in the custom link widget when possible
- Offers a growing library of **installable demo modules** directly from the REDAXO backend

## Quick example

```php
use FriendsOfRedaxo\MForm;

echo MForm::factory()
    ->addTabElement('Content', MForm::factory()
        ->addTextField(1, ['label' => 'Headline'])
        ->addColorSwatchField(2, [
            '#ffffff' => 'White',
            '#111111' => 'Black',
            '.bg-primary' => ['label' => 'Primary', 'preview' => '#0d6efd'],
        ], ['label' => 'Background'])
    )
    ->addTabElement('Items', MForm::factory()
        ->addRepeaterElement(3, MForm::factory()
            ->addTextField('title', ['label' => 'Title'])
            ->addMediaField('image', ['label' => 'Image'])
        , true, true, ['min' => 1, 'max' => 10, 'copy_paste' => true])
    )
    ->show();
```
