Simple repeater and $get

Hi, When using $get on a simple repeater, the state shown is not the simple array of value shown in the doc, but the internal representation of the repeater. 
Repeater::make('invitations')
    ->simple(
        TextInput::make('email')
            ->email()
            ->required(),
    )
Placeholder::make('foo')->content(fn (Get $get) => dump($get('invitations'))
Repeater::make('invitations')
    ->simple(
        TextInput::make('email')
            ->email()
            ->required(),
    )
Placeholder::make('foo')->content(fn (Get $get) => dump($get('invitations'))
returns 
"invitations" => array:2 [
    "cc35096d-4cfc-4207-bbc5-05b70db95fee" => array:1 [
      "email" => array:1 [
        "email" => null
      ]
    ]
    "e44bad27-018c-4ef2-af1e-2edd2947687b" => array:1 [
      "email" => null
    ]
  ]
"invitations" => array:2 [
    "cc35096d-4cfc-4207-bbc5-05b70db95fee" => array:1 [
      "email" => array:1 [
        "email" => null
      ]
    ]
    "e44bad27-018c-4ef2-af1e-2edd2947687b" => array:1 [
      "email" => null
    ]
  ]
Is this a known behavior? An issue? Thanks.

Hi @mathieutu, that's the normal behavior if I'm not mistaken (nice to see you finally get into filament ;))

normal behavior
Yeah, but I find it weird to not have the same value from $get than when stored in DB or passed in as default.
finally get into filament
Not without pain, I'm afraid 😅

Yeah, $get() doesn't query the DB, it gets the livewire object or something like that... What are you trying to do? Maybe I can help, I had some repeaters in my last project as well By the way, a big major version of Filament is about to come (no date yet), so if you're not in a hurry I'd advise to wait for it...

No need to query the dB here. But just to have the same result when using $get and getState() on the same form. Good to know, thanks! But my project is well started, so I'll see and update when the new version will come.
