inuit.css html, form helpers and pagination for Laravel 4
- PHP 5.3+
- Laravel 4.1
Wingsline/inuitcss is available on Packagist (wingsline/inuitcss) and as such installable via Composer.
If you do not use Composer, you can grab the code from GitHub, and use any PSR-0 compatible autoloader (e.g. the Symfony2 ClassLoader component) to load Wingsline/Inuitcss classes.
In order to use inuitcss styled form elements replace the following alias in the app/config/app.php:
'Form' => 'Illuminate\Support\Facades\Form'
with
'Form' => 'Wingsline\Inuitcss\Facades\Form'
So when in example you call Form::text() a text field will be generated, BUT the text field will have the
text-input
class added to it automatically.
Currently the following elements will have the text-input added to it:
- Form::text()
- Form::password()
- Form::email()
- Form::textarea()
Also there is a Form::extraHelp() available to add help text displayed after a field when that field is in focus (see forms):
Form::extraHelp('.edu emails only')
You can also highlight a label of an input element when a validation error occurs. Simply add the $errors from the view into the Form::open().
Form::open(array('errors' => $errors))
The default css class is error
, but if you want to change that add the errors like this:
Form::open(array('errors' => array($errors, 'mycustomclass')))
After installation add the Wingsline/InuitcssServiceProvider to the config/app.php's service providers:
'Wingsline\Inuitcss\InuitcssServiceProvider'
then change the config/view.php pagination
value to one of the following views:
Show the most links with text labels
'pagination' => 'inuitcss::pagination.slider'
Shows the slider pagination except the first and last page links
'pagination' => 'inuitcss::pagination.simpleslider'
Shows the slider but without text labels
'pagination' => 'inuitcss::pagination.slidernotext'
Just the basic previous and next links.
'pagination' => 'inuitcss::pagination.simple'
The language keys for the pagination (app/lang/en/pagination.php
) should look similar to this:
<?php
return array(
'previous' => '‹ Previous',
'next' => 'Next ›',
'first' => 'First',
'last' => 'Last',
);
