Persisting repeater changes to DB (TableRepeter)
I have a somewhat complex repeater table where I'm populating the table with custom calculations essentially, so when I use the
relationship()
method, it doesn't work. What I need to do is in each repeater field's afterStateUpdated
method, I want to get the current row and save the changes to the database. It seems like this should be pretty straight-forward, but I think the repeater is relying on a pretty simple relationship and not designed for my use case? Either that or I'm just too dumb to figure it out.
I've tried various things trying to get the $component->getContainer()
and use that to get the ID of the row? I really just need to get the ID of the row, which is in my data, so if I could get the row data I'd be happy.
I tried passing in array $data
, array $arguments
, Repeater $component
, nothing seems to give me anything useful. What am I missing, because it seems like this should be easy.

turns out I am dumb. I didn't realize that $get() would work on data that's not an actual field. The ID of my row isn't an input field...I just tried it on a whim and it returns my id, so I learned something new today.
