Radio group

This is quite rough still. Its incredibly easy to make this by just extending \Phalcon\Forms\Element. Initially I did it in a roundabout way, which was very difficult, not going to show that :p

        $postType = new RadioGroup("post_type", [
            'elements' => Posts::postTypes(),
            'class' => 'pure-button button-white segment-item'
            ]);

        $postType->setFilters([
            'striptags',
            'trim'
            ]);

        $postType->addValidators([
            new StringLength([
                'min' => 1,
                'max' => 1,
                'messageMaximum' => 'Too many characters for Post Type field',
                'messageMinimum' => 'Post Type field cannot be empty',
                'cancelOnFail' => true
                    ]),
            new Regex([
                'pattern' => '/[a-z]/',
                'message' => 'Post Type contained out of bounds characters',
                'cancelOnFail' => true
                    ]),
            ]);

        if ($post) {
            $postType->setChecked($post->post_type);
        }

        $this->add($postType);

I'd totally appreciate it if anyone has any tips or to share your own code, because this is probably lacking some crucial thing. But it does work for what I need, Phalcon will apply the validators and filters, and bind() also work. As you can see, I didn't have to do anything for that to work, Phalcon did it, nice!

Update: I had a setChecked() method, that was not needed and caused problems on save.

<?php

namespace Library\Forms\Element;

class RadioGroup extends \Phalcon\Forms\Element
{
    private $checked = null;

    /**
     * More decoration than the regular render, does similar things, probably incomplete.
     * Supported attributes:
     * string   `label`             The entire group's label
     * array    `elements`      Key, value associated array
     * string   `class`             The CSS selectors for each HTML LABEL element
     *
     * @param array $attributes Render time attributes, will override what was set earlier.
     * @return string A set of HTML radio elements.
     */
    public function render($attributes = [])
    {
        // Overrides any attribute set earlier
        if (!empty($attributes)) {
            foreach ($attributes as $key => $val) {
                $this->setAttribute($key, $val);
            }
        }

        $attr = $this->getAttributes();
        $rendered = isset($attr['label']) ? '<h3>' . $attr['label'] . '</h3>' : ''; // H3 NOT FINAL
        $cssClass = isset($attr['class']) ? ' class="'.$attr['class'].'"' : '';

        $eleName = $this->getName() . '_';

        foreach($attr['elements'] as $key => $label) {

            $checked = '';
            if ($key == $this->getValue()) {
                $checked = ' checked="true"';
            }

            $rendered .= '
    <label for="'.$eleName . $key.'"'.$cssClass.'><input type="radio"'.$checked.' id="'.$eleName . $key. '" name="'.$this->getName().'" value="'.$key.'"> ' .
        $label . '</label>' ;
        }

        return $rendered;
    }
}

View:

<div class="button-group">
<?php
    echo $form->render('post_type'), PHP_EOL;
 ?>
</div>

Output

<div class="button-group">                 
    <label for="post_type_p" class="segment-item"><input type="radio" id="post_type_p" name="post_type" value="p"> Page</label>
    <label for="post_type_b" class="segment-item"><input type="radio" checked="true" id="post_type_b" name="post_type" value="b"> Blog</label>
    <label for="post_type_u" class="segment-item"><input type="radio" id="post_type_u" name="post_type" value="u"> Utility</label>
</div>

This is my Checkboxlist Phalcon 2.1. Share for you

    private $_dataOld;

    public function __construct($name, $data, $dataOld = null, $attribute = null) {
        $this->_data = $data;

}

How to USE


$cat = new \App\Vendor\Fdola\Forms\CheckBoxList('element', ['key'=> 'Name']);
        $cat->setLabel('List Checkbox:' . $required);
        $cat->addValidators([
            new \Phalcon\Validation\Validator\PresenceOf([
                'message' => '<b>:field</b> Not null'
            ])
        ]);
        $this->add($cat);
