• Laravel 11.0+
• Filament 4.x / 5.x

Dependencies

• maatwebsite/excel
• spatie/eloquent-sortable

Installing the Filament Forms Package

Install the plugin via Composer:

This package is not yet on Packagist. Add the repository to your composer.json

{
"repositories": [
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/TappNetwork/Filament-Form-Builder"
        }
    ],
}

composer require tapp/filament-form-builder:"^4.0"

You can publish the migrations with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-form-builder-migrations"

Warning

If you are using multi-tenancy please see the "Multi-Tenancy Support" instructions below before publishing and running migrations.

You can run the migrations with:

php artisan migrate

Optional: Publish the package's views, translations, and config

You can publish the view file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-form-builder-views"

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-form-builder-config"

Adding the plugins to panels

The package provides three plugins for different panel types:

1. Admin Panel Plugin (FilamentFormBuilderPlugin)

Add this plugin to your admin panel to manage forms, fields, and entries. This plugin registers the FilamentFormResource which provides CRUD operations for forms.

use Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\FilamentFormBuilderPlugin;

// In app/Providers/Filament/AdminPanelProvider.php
public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugins([
            FilamentFormBuilderPlugin::make(),
            //...
        ]);
}

2. Guest Panel Plugin (FilamentFormBuilderGuestPlugin)

Add this plugin to your guest panel (for unauthenticated users) to display forms and form entries. This plugin registers the ShowForm and ShowEntry pages for public access.

use Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\FilamentFormBuilderGuestPlugin;

// In app/Providers/Filament/GuestPanelProvider.php
public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugins([
            FilamentFormBuilderGuestPlugin::make(),
            //...
        ]);
}

3. Frontend/App Panel Plugin (FilamentFormBuilderFrontendPlugin)

Add this plugin to your app/frontend panel (for authenticated users) to display forms and form entries. This plugin registers the ShowForm and ShowEntry pages for authenticated access.

use Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\FilamentFormBuilderFrontendPlugin;

// In app/Providers/Filament/AppPanelProvider.php
public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ...
        ->plugins([
            FilamentFormBuilderFrontendPlugin::make(),
            //...
        ]);
}

Public Form Access

Forms can be accessed via the following routes (configured in config/filament-form-builder.php):

• Form View: /forms/{form} - Displays a form for submission
• Entry View: /entries/{entry} - Displays a submitted form entry

The routes automatically use the appropriate panel (guest or app) based on authentication status. Forms with permit_guest_entries enabled can be viewed by unauthenticated users in the guest panel, while authenticated users will be redirected to the app panel.

Configuration

You can customize the package behavior by publishing and editing the config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-form-builder-config"

Key configuration options include:

• Panel IDs: Configure which panel IDs are used for guest and app panels (guest-panel-id, app-panel-id)
• Login Route: Set the login route for redirecting unauthenticated users (login-route)
• Custom Page Classes: Override the default ShowForm and ShowEntry pages for guest and app panels
• Custom Middleware: Override the default SetFormPanel middleware for panel context switching
• Route URIs: Customize the form and entry route paths (filament-form-uri, filament-form-user-uri)

See config/filament-form-builder.php for all available configuration options.

Configuring Tailwind:

Add this to your tailwind.config.js content section:

    content: [
        ...
        "./vendor/tapp/**/*.blade.php",
    ],

Disabling Redirect

You can disable the redirect when including the Form/Show component inside of another component by passing the 'blockRedirect' prop as follows

    @livewire('tapp.filament-form-builder.livewire.filament-form.show', ['form' => $test->form, 'blockRedirect' => true])

Multi-Tenancy Support

This plugin includes comprehensive support for multi-tenancy, allowing you to scope forms, form fields, and entries to specific tenants (e.g., Teams, Organizations, Companies).

⚠️ Important: Configure Before Migration

You MUST enable and configure tenancy BEFORE running migrations! The migrations check the tenancy configuration to determine whether to add tenant columns to the database tables. Enabling tenancy after running migrations will require manual database modifications.

Configuration

Update your config/filament-form-builder.php configuration file:

'tenancy' => [
    // Enable tenancy support
    'enabled' => true,

    // The Tenant model class
    'model' => \App\Models\Team::class,

    // Optional: Override the tenant relationship name
    // (defaults to snake_case of tenant model class name: Team -> 'team')
    'relationship_name' => null,

    // Optional: Override the tenant foreign key column name
    // (defaults to relationship_name + '_id': 'team' -> 'team_id')
    'column' => null,
],

Setup Steps

1. Configure tenancy in config/filament-form-builder.php (set enabled to true and specify your tenant model)
2. Publish migrations: php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-form-builder-migrations"
3. Run migrations: php artisan migrate
4. Configure your Filament Panel with tenancy:

use Filament\Panel;
use App\Models\Team;
use Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\FilamentFormBuilderPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->tenant(Team::class)
        ->plugins([
            FilamentFormBuilderPlugin::make(),
        ]);
}

How It Works

When tenancy is enabled:

• Automatic Scoping: All queries within Filament panels are automatically scoped to the current tenant
• URL Structure: Forms are accessed via tenant-specific URLs: /admin/{tenant-slug}/filament-forms
• Data Isolation: Each tenant can only access their own forms, fields, and entries
• Cascade Deletion: Deleting a tenant automatically removes all associated form data

Disabling Tenancy

To disable tenancy, set enabled to false in your configuration:

'tenancy' => [
    'enabled' => false,
    'model' => null,
],

Events

Livewire

The FilamentForm/Show component emits an 'entrySaved' event when a form entry is saved. You can handle this event in a parent component to as follows.

class ParentComponent extends Component
{
    protected $listeners = ['entrySaved'];

    public function entrySaved(FilamentFormUser $survey)
    {
        // custom logic you would like to add to form entry saving logic
    }
}

Laravel

The component also emits a Laravel event that you can listen to in your event service provider

// In your EventServiceProvider.php
protected $listen = [
    \Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\Events\EntrySaved::class => [
        \App\Listeners\HandleFormSubmission::class,
    ],
];

// Create a listener class
namespace App\Listeners;

use Tapp\FilamentFormBuilder\Events\EntrySaved;

class HandleFormSubmission
{
    public function handle(EntrySaved $event): void
    {
        // Access the form entry
        $entry = $event->entry;
        
        // Perform actions with the form data
        // For example, send notifications, update other records, etc.
    }
}
