Filament v3 Resource does not fill the Edit form

Hello i integrated the Filament package into a existing Laravel 10 project. When i followed the guide for the panels i discovered that after i have created a Resource ( when i filled the logic for the Table ) it doesn't fill the Edit form with the selected record. My table looks like this (from the docs and demo on github )

->columns([
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('name'),
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('defectCategory.weight'),
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('')->label('Check type')
        ->description(fn (Defect $defect): string => $defect->qualityCheck)
])
->filters([
    //
])
->actions([
    EditAction::make(),
])
->emptyStateActions([
    CreateAction::make(),
]);

->columns([
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('name'),
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('defectCategory.weight'),
    Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('')->label('Check type')
        ->description(fn (Defect $defect): string => $defect->qualityCheck)
])
->filters([
    //
])
->actions([
    EditAction::make(),
])
->emptyStateActions([
    CreateAction::make(),
]);

And my Edit page is almost blank

protected static string $resource = DefectResource::class;
protected function getHeaderActions(): array
{
    return [
        Actions\DeleteAction::make(),
    ];
}

protected static string $resource = DefectResource::class;
protected function getHeaderActions(): array
{
    return [
        Actions\DeleteAction::make(),
    ];
}

Was looking around found some were doing with the ->record() method so i tried

EditAction::make()
    ->record(function ($record) {
        return Defect::find($record);
    }),

EditAction::make()
    ->record(function ($record) {
        return Defect::find($record);
    }),

But didn't make a difference So what do i need to do to fill my Edit form with the selected record ?

You need to fill in your form in your resource if i am correct

https://filamentphp.com/docs/3.x/forms/fields/getting-started if you use the textInput for your name , then you could see the name in the edit

i do have the make() method on my text inputs in the form

->schema([
    // create form
    Forms\Components\Section::make()
        ->schema([
            Forms\Components\TextInput::make('defect')
                ->required()
                ->maxLength(255)
                ->label(__()),
            Forms\Components\Select::make('categoryId')->label('Category')
                ->required()
                ->options(
                    DefectCategory::fillamentElements() // custom method in the class
                ),
            Forms\Components\Select::make('checkTypeId')->label("Check Type")
                ->required()
                ->options(
                    Defect::getQualityCheck(),
                )
        ])
        ->columns(3)
        ->columnSpan(['lg' => fn (?Defect $record) => $record === null ? 3 : 2]),
    // Show additional Section if a record is selected
    Forms\Components\Section::make()
        ->schema([
            Forms\Components\Placeholder::make('created_at')
                ->content(fn (Defect $record): ?string => $record->created_at?->diffForHumans()),
            Forms\Components\Placeholder::make('updated_at')
                ->content(fn (Defect $record): ?string => $record->updated_at?->diffForHumans()),
        ])
        ->columnSpan(['lg' => 1])
        ->hidden(fn (?Defect $record) => $record === null),
])

->schema([
    // create form
    Forms\Components\Section::make()
        ->schema([
            Forms\Components\TextInput::make('defect')
                ->required()
                ->maxLength(255)
                ->label(__()),
            Forms\Components\Select::make('categoryId')->label('Category')
                ->required()
                ->options(
                    DefectCategory::fillamentElements() // custom method in the class
                ),
            Forms\Components\Select::make('checkTypeId')->label("Check Type")
                ->required()
                ->options(
                    Defect::getQualityCheck(),
                )
        ])
        ->columns(3)
        ->columnSpan(['lg' => fn (?Defect $record) => $record === null ? 3 : 2]),
    // Show additional Section if a record is selected
    Forms\Components\Section::make()
        ->schema([
            Forms\Components\Placeholder::make('created_at')
                ->content(fn (Defect $record): ?string => $record->created_at?->diffForHumans()),
            Forms\Components\Placeholder::make('updated_at')
                ->content(fn (Defect $record): ?string => $record->updated_at?->diffForHumans()),
        ])
        ->columnSpan(['lg' => 1])
        ->hidden(fn (?Defect $record) => $record === null),
])

So i need to add the name() method also ?

Quin.•14mo ago

you do return the $form?

icoOP•14mo ago

yes

Quin.•14mo ago

hmmm thats a good one man, You don't need to add the name it isn't required. But it does create your records?

icoOP•14mo ago

hmmm it flashesh but it doesn't create the record in the DB

Dennis Koch•14mo ago

If this is an EditPage in a Panel you don't need to do anything.

icoOP•14mo ago

it is i created a new AppPanleProvider and when i typed the command for a new resource it asked me for witch panel i wanted the resource to be so i did select the app panel provider that i created and all i did after was to fill the $table and the $form

Dennis Koch•14mo ago

Anything special about your Defect model? Can you share that code?

icoOP•14mo ago

nothing special

class Defect extends Model
{
    use HasFactory, SoftDeletes, Varied;

    protected $guarded = [];

    public static function getQualityCheck(): Collect
    {
        return collect([
            1 => 'Visual',
            2 => 'Metric',
        ]);
    }

    public function getQualityCheckAttribute(): strin
    {
        return self::getQualityCheck()[$this->checkTypeId];
    }

    

Relationships to other tables
..........

Is Varied doing anything special?

icoOP•14mo ago

no it for generating the data in the DB it has nothing to do with filament

Dennis Koch•14mo ago

Can you make it work with any other model? Just to make sure

icoOP•14mo ago

haven't tested with other resources yet
