Form Builder is a Laravel package built on top of Filament v4, allowing you to visually build and manage dynamic forms from your admin panel.
It lets you attach custom forms to any Eloquent model in your application with minimal setup.

✨ Features

Built with Filament v4 components
Define forms from your Filament panel UI
Attach forms to any Laravel model
Persist form definitions in the database
All form fields are stored in a single model column
Supports multiple form versions per model (coming soon)
Easily extendable and configurable

📦 Installation

Requires Laravel 11+ and Filament 4+

Step 1: Install via Composer

composer require dayne-valourite/form-builder

Or, if you’re developing locally:

composer require dayne-valourite/form-builder --dev

Step 2: Publish and run migrations

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=form-builder-config
php artisan migrate

Step 3: Register the plugin in your Filament panel

In your PanelProvider:

use Valourite\FormBuilder\FormBuilderPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugins([
            FormBuilderPlugin::make(),
        ]);
}

🧩 Usage

Create your own Laravel model, e.g.:

php artisan make:model Client -m

Add a form_fields column to that model's migration:

$table->json('form_fields')->nullable();

Configure allowed models in your config/form-builder.php:

'models' => [
    App\Models\Client::class,
    App\Models\Project::class,
],

Go to your Filament admin panel → Navigate to the Forms resource → Create a form → Assign it to your model (e.g., Client).
The form data will be stored in the form_fields column on each model instance.
