README

Hi Fellas! So you know how you would like to create a dynamic registration form but then you can't because you feel this is impossible with PHP.

Well, I have good news for ya, this is so POSSIBLE with this package. Yeah that's right, I mean it. Let's get down on the "how":

So we will be working with a 3 step form:

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require infinitypaul/laravel-multistep-forms

Usage

After installing the package, I will be creating 3 blades for the different steps of the form:

Step 1: Create the blades for the form.

Step 2: Create the controller for the each form.

After creating the blade views for each of the forms, p.s: I created them in a folder "register". We'll be heading to the controller, so in app\Http\Controllers\Auth, we would be creating a folder "Register" i.e our path will be "app\Http\Controllers\Auth\Register". In the Register folder, we would be creating 3 controllers for the three steps:

RegisterControllerStep1.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth\Register;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Storage;
use Infinitypaul\MultiStep\MultiStep;


class RegisterControllerStep1 extends Controller
{
    public function index(){

        $step  =MultiStep::step('auth.register', 1);
        return view('auth.register.1', compact('step'));
    }

    public function store(Request $request){
        MultiStep::step('auth.register', 1)->store(['name' => $request->name, 'middle' => $request->middle])->complete();
        return redirect()->route('auth.register.2.index');
    }
}

RegisterControllerStep2.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth\Register;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Infinitypaul\MultiStep\MultiStep;

class RegisterControllerStep2 extends Controller
{
    public function index(){
        $step  =MultiStep::step('auth.register', 2);
        return view('auth.register.2', compact('step'));
    }


    public function store(Request $request){
        MultiStep::step('auth.register', 2)->store($request->only('email'))->complete();

        return redirect()->route('auth.register.3.index');
    }
}

RegisterControllerStep3.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers\Auth\Register;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Infinitypaul\MultiStep\MultiStep;


class RegisterControllerStep3 extends Controller
{
    public function index(){
        $step = MultiStep::step('auth.register', 3);
        if($step->notCompleted(1)){
            return redirect()->route('auth.register.1.index');
        }
        return view('auth.register.3');
    }

    public function store(MultiStep $multiStep, Request $request){
        MultiStep::step('auth.register', 3)->store($request->only('password'))->complete();

        MultiStep::clearAll();
    }
}

Step 3: Routing!

Let's move on to the route, in our web.php, we will include this:

Route::multistep('auth/register', 'Auth\Register\RegisterController')
    ->steps('3')
    ->name('auth.register')
    ->only(['index', 'store']);

We're done guys!!!

So if I head to {URL}/auth/register/1, I would see this:

When I click on next, it takes me to {URL}/auth/register/2 and this will display:

On clicking on next, we get {URL}/auth/register/3:

Its a wrap! Well done guys!!!
