Can you access the search state in a create action?

Sorry if the title doesn't make much sense I have a select like this

Select::make('user_id')
    ->createOptionAction(
        fn (Action $action) => $action
            ->modalWidth('3xl'),
    )
    ->createOptionForm(fn(Select $component) => [
        TextInput::make('name')
            ->default(fn () => $component->getState())
            ->required(),
    ])
    ->createOptionUsing(fn ($state, $data) => dd($state, $data))
    ->live()

Select::make('user_id')
    ->createOptionAction(
        fn (Action $action) => $action
            ->modalWidth('3xl'),
    )
    ->createOptionForm(fn(Select $component) => [
        TextInput::make('name')
            ->default(fn () => $component->getState())
            ->required(),
    ])
    ->createOptionUsing(fn ($state, $data) => dd($state, $data))
    ->live()

Is there a way to access what the user has typed in the select to be used as a default value in the createOptionForm? $component->getState() is null

Did you try passing $state in to th eaction?

Sorry, what do you mean? I need the state in the form, not the action 🤔 There's some weird interactions with the

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl'),
)

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl'),
)

it can affect the state of the fom, but I'm having trouble getting the actual state of the select hmm Hmm now that I think about it, getState() is wrong since this is the search, not the value of the select 🤔

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action, $state) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl'),
)

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action, $state) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl'),
)

Might not work... haven't checked the code.

Sorry, I wasn't clear in the original question - what I want to do is pre-fill the form with the text they're trying to search for. So let's say they are searching for someone named John and they want to create one, the createOptionForm would look something like this

->createOptionForm(fn(Select $component) => [
    TextInput::make('name')
        ->default(fn () => 'John')
        ->required(),
])

->createOptionForm(fn(Select $component) => [
    TextInput::make('name')
        ->default(fn () => 'John')
        ->required(),
])

which I don't think is possible. Oh well, maybe some filament wizard has an idea oh how to access the search value

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action, $state) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl')
->fillForm([‘name’ => $state])
)

->createOptionAction(
    fn (Action $action, $state) => $action
        ->modalWidth('3xl')
->fillForm([‘name’ => $state])
)

Might not work... haven't checked the code or if state works on the option form closure

ChesterSOP•2mo ago

Nope, doesn't work either 😦 I don't think 'state' is what I want in the first place since the search is not considered the state - it's something else that is not accessible at some point

toeknee•2mo ago

well the state should be the value of the input. Just access it via the livewire element?

ChesterSOP•2mo ago

Hmm I can't seem to find it :/ Not sure if the search is not passed down or if there's some DOM magic I can do to get it 🤔
