I have large form, i need to split it in multiple form when on mobile view.
Desktop = 1 large form
Mobile = 2-3 smaller form, when i valid the 1 form, then new page 2 form, and so on..
I would like to do it in responsive way NOT sub-domaine like ( http://mobile/blah.com )
PS: I want to avoid third party bundle !!
Advice, recommandation, direction anything than can help me
My controller:
public function ownerRegisterAction(Request $request)
{
$em = $this->getDoctrine()->getManager();
$owner = new Owner();
$form = $this->createCreateForm($owner);
$form->handleRequest($request);
if($form->isSubmitted() && $form->isValid())
{
$password = $this->get('security.password_encoder')
->encodePassword($owner->getOwner(), $owner->getOwner()->getPassword());
$owner->getOwner()->setPassword($password);
$owner->getOwner()->setStatus('owner');
$owner->getOwner()->setIsValid(0);
$em->persist($owner);
$em->flush();
// Login users after registration
$this->get('apx_auth_after_register')->authenticateUser($tenant->getTenant());
$response = $this->forward('PagesBundle:SearchOwner:search', ['owner' => $owner]);
return $response;
}
return $this->render('::form/owner-register.html.twig', array(
'form' => $form->createView()
));
}
My Form Type :
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options)
{
$builder
->add('corporate', CorporateType::class, ['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => false, 'label' => false])
//->add('postcode', NumberType::class,['label' => false])
->add('type', TypeType::class, ['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => false,'label' => false])
->add('room', NbRoomType::class,['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => false,'label' => false])
->add('rent', NumberType::class,['label' => false])
->add('area', NumberType::class,['label' => false])
->add('images', CollectionType::class, [
'entry_type' => ImagesFlatType::class,
'allow_add' => true,
'required' => false,
'allow_delete' => true,
'label' => false,
])
->add('fee', NumberType::class, ['label' => false, 'required' => false])
// to be defined in list by city
->add('transport', TextType::class,['label' => false, 'required' => false])
->add('furnished', FurnishedType::class, ['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => false,'label' => false])
->add('vip', LesVipType::class, ['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => true,'label' => false])
->add('feature', FeatureType::class, ['expanded' => true, 'multiple' => true,'label' => false])
->add('description', TextareaType::class,['label' => false, 'required' => false])
// City ajax call to be fix
->add('location', EntityType::class, ['label' => false,
'class' => 'PagesBundle:City',
'choice_label' => 'zone']);
Thanks all

Well, I don't think it is a hard task. Actually it's seems somewhat obvious (at least for me though).
You could to use something like TabView or Accordion-like view. All of this can be achieved by using pure CSS (and maybe Javascript).
As you can see it is not related to Symfony at all. By using CSS + Media-queries I'm sure you can get done the desired UI.
If you want to split form using responsive way, you should format form output in your view (eg TWIG file). Place form parts in separate containers and then use CSS media queries and JS. Good luck!
I did something a few years back in which a passed a 'step' var into the formType which I incremented after each post.
I used an if statement in the formType to build the form depending on the step value.
When you use FormBuilder::add()
you create an instance of FormType which can be :
So they all behave the same way.
Then you can easily split your FormType in 3 SubFormTypes :
namespace AppBundle\Form;
/*
* When forms get heavy, it becomes handy to use aliases
* on import use statements since it eases the reading in code
* and reduces the list of imports.
*/
use Type as AppType;
use Symfony\Bridge\Doctrine\Form\Type as OrmType;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Extension\Core\Type as CoreType;
// An abstract class which all sub form will extend.
abstract class AbstractSubFormType extends AbstractType
{
/*
* We need to add a submit button on the sub form
* which will be only visible on mobile screens.
*
* Then to get help of css class :
* use ".submit-sub_owner { display: 'none'; }" for desktop screens,
* and ".submit-sub_owner { display: 'block'; }" for mobile screens.
*
* Plus we need dynamic hiding of next sub forms from controller :
* use ".sub_owner-next { display: 'none'; }" for mobile screens.
*/
public function buildForm(FormBuilderInterface $builder, array $options = array())
{
$builder->add('submit', CoreType\SubmitType::class,
'attr' => array(
// Needed to target sub owner controller.
'formaction' => $options['sub_action'],
// Hides sub owners submit button on big screens.
'class' => 'submit_sub_owner',
)
));
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$subNextNormalizer = function (Options $options, $subNext) {
$hideNextSubOwners = isset($options['sub_next']) && $subNext;
// Sets "attr" option of this sub owner type.
$options['attr']['class'] = $hideNextSubOwners ? 'sub_owner-next' : '';
}
// Allows custom options.
$resolver->setDefaults(array('sub_action' => '', 'sub_next' => false));

One FormType to wrap them all :
class OwnerType extends AbstractType
{

{
$sub = isset($option['sub_action']) ? $options['sub_action'] : false;
$next = isset($option['sub_next']) ? $options['sub_next'] : false;
$builder
->add('stage_one', AppType\SubOwnerOne::class, array(
'sub_action' => $sub, // get form action from controllers.
))
->add('stage_two', AppType\SubOwnerTwo::class, array(
'sub_action' => $sub,
'sub_next' => $next, // hide sub owners from main controller on mobile screens.
))
->add('final', AppType\SubFormTypeThree::class, array(
'sub_action' => $sub,
'sub_next' => $next,
))
->add('submit', CoreType\SubmitType::class, array(
'attr' => array(
// Allows using ".submit-owner { display: 'none'; }" for mobile screens.
'class' => 'submit-owner',
),
));
}
public function configureOptions(OptionsResolver $resolver)
{
$resolver->setDefaults(array(
'label' => false,
// Allows custom options
'sub_action' => '',
'sub_next' => false,
));

// ...
}

There are many php libraries to detect mobile browsers.
For example https://github.com/serbanghita/Mobile-Detect which provides a bundle for symfony : https://github.com/suncat2000/MobileDetectBundle
So you can even use a helper in a previous implementation :
$mobileDetector = $this->get('mobile_detect.mobile_detector');
$mobileDetector->isMobile();
$mobileDetector->isTablet()
