Form with Custom Fields

The main logic here lives in our CustomerResource classes form() method:

• We are using a Repeater to create a dynamic number of fields
• We are using a Pivot model to enable our Many-to-Many relationship between Customer and Field models
• We are turning off fields as soon as they are selected to prevent duplicates

Here's how that looks in our code:

app/Models/Field.php

class Field extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
    ];
}

app/Models/CustomerField.php

// ...
class CustomerField extends Pivot
{
    public function customer(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(Customer::class);
    }
 
    public function field(): BelongsTo
    {
        return $this->belongsTo(Field::class);
    }
}

Remember that this Model is required for the Repeater to work, as it's a Many-to-Many relationship. That's a Filament requirement.

app/Models/Customer.php

class Customer extends Model
{
    use HasFactory;
 
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'email',
        'phone',
    ];
 
    // We can access the many to many relationship with the fields() method
    public function fields(): BelongsToMany
    {
        return $this->belongsToMany(Field::class)->withPivot('value');
    }
 
    // But Filament uses this to fill the repeater
    public function customerFields(): HasMany
    {
        return $this->hasMany(CustomerField::class);
    }
}

And finally, here's how we are building the form itself:

app/Filament/Resources/CustomerResource.php

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            // We made a Section with our customer fields, nothing special
            Forms\Components\Section::make('Customer Details')
                ->schema([
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('name')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255),
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('email')
                        ->email()
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255),
                    Forms\Components\TextInput::make('phone')
                        ->required()
                        ->maxLength(255),
                ])
                ->columns(),
            // Here's the Repeater with our custom fields
            Forms\Components\Repeater::make('fields')
 
            // ...
