Edit resource page as the page index

I'm attempting to set up the edit page as the primary view for a filamentphp resource, specifically for managing page settings. These settings will consist of a single data row, and I want to restrict it to only being editable, with no option to create new rows or delete the existing one. Despite my efforts to find a solution, I haven't been able to. I'm open to any pointers, workarounds, or alternative approaches that could help me achieve this. Thanks for your assistance!

custom page would be the solution i guess

ObalaOP•15mo ago

Yes it does work, but the problem comes when I am editing the page, am using ->fill() on the form, when I try to edit it refreshes with the data from the database

krekas•15mo ago

I don't get it. If it's only for settings shouldn't it work that way? For example you can check how settings page is done here https://github.com/ploi/roadmap/blob/main/app/Filament/Pages/Settings.php

That fill should only happen on the mount() function and not on your form. You are always re-filling the form.

Yes, have noticed, now have changed to

public function mount(): void
{
$this->form->fill($this->getSetting()->toArray());

//And it works

}

public function mount(): void
{
$this->form->fill($this->getSetting()->toArray());

//And it works

}

But now ```php public function create(Setting $setting): void { $setting->update($this->form->getState()); $setting->save(); //Its just saving new setting row with all the fields to null }

ModestasV•15mo ago

Upp, you don't need $setting->update(...) and then $setting->save(); Just use the update and it should work 🙂

ObalaOP•15mo ago

its not updating the row still

message.txt

ModestasV•15mo ago

Can you try to add:

    public function create(Setting $setting): void
    {
        dd($this->form);
        $setting->update($this->form->getState());
    }

    public function create(Setting $setting): void
    {
        dd($this->form);
        $setting->update($this->form->getState());
    }

If that doesn't work, just check what you get from:

$this->data;

$this->data;

Because I used exactly the same approach with:

  public function create(): void
    {
        // ...
        $count = count(array_diff($questionsList, $this->data));

  public function create(): void
    {
        // ...
        $count = count(array_diff($questionsList, $this->data));

ObalaOP•15mo ago

with the dd($this->data); the data is dumped with no issues but $setting->update($this->data); still does not update the row

ModestasV•15mo ago

dump the $setting variable and see what it returns maybe it's not correctly auto-loaded 🙂

ObalaOP•15mo ago

yes, after dumping $setting from the Setting $setting found it was empty so i change to this

public function create(): void
    {
        $setting = $this->getSetting();
        $setting->update($this->data);
    }

public function create(): void
    {
        $setting = $this->getSetting();
        $setting->update($this->data);
    }

ModestasV•15mo ago

👍

ObalaOP•15mo ago

but again its not saving 😫

ModestasV•15mo ago

It's not null and you have data? 🙂 Ps. By checking dd($setting) make sure that it has an ID attached in attrributes

ObalaOP•15mo ago

yes its not nulled since the $this->getSetting(); retrieves the first row in the table

ModestasV•15mo ago

Um... Can you show me your model that is attached to this? I suspect that you have missed $fillable definition there 🙂

ObalaOP•15mo ago

am not using id 😆 the primary key is set to company_name i have protected $fillable

ModestasV•15mo ago

well, whatever primary key you are using - if it has it - then it's okay 😄 all the fields you are trying to update are there?

ObalaOP•15mo ago

yes

ModestasV•15mo ago

Hmm Double check that the Data isn't wrapped with anything else and has a correct structure 🙂 Or use saving like this:

        $question = Question::first();
        
        $question->fill($this->data);
        
        $question->save();

        $question = Question::first();
        
        $question->fill($this->data);
        
        $question->save();

Then you can dd($setting) before the save and see if it was filled correctly

ObalaOP•15mo ago

dd() on getSetting()

ModestasV•15mo ago

check the #attributes and what's inside 🙂

ObalaOP•15mo ago

clear views, route etc and tried this again and it works

public function create(): void
    {
        $setting = Setting::first();
        $setting->fill($this->form->getState());
        $setting->save();
    }

public function create(): void
    {
        $setting = Setting::first();
        $setting->fill($this->form->getState());
        $setting->save();
    }
