Preserve nested datatable values on ML locale switch/copy (#33) - #117
Preserve nested datatable values on ML locale switch/copy (#33)#117LukeTowers wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
A datatable form widget inside a translatable repeater/nested form lost its values on locale switch: the Table widget only serialises its client-memory data for handlers listed in postbackHandlerName (default onSave), but the ML widgets switch/copy via onSwitchItemLocale / onCopyItemLocale, so the datatable's data was never posted and got dropped from the previous locale. Building on the Table widget's handler-list support (winter/winter#560), the ML repeater / nested form / blocks widgets now inject their own namespaced onSwitchItemLocale + onCopyItemLocale handlers into any nested datatable field's postbackHandlerName (preserving onSave and any existing handlers), so the data posts on those requests and survives the switch — no per-field config needed. Adds unit coverage for the injection (incl. nested forms, dedupe, and leaving non-datatable fields untouched). Fixes #33 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
WalkthroughThe change adds multilingual datatable handler registration to Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change can still lose nested datatable values when a nested form uses supported reference or configuration-based definitions because those definitions are not normalized before traversal.

Assert the complete handler set for nested datatables.
The nested test checks only w::onSwitchItemLocale. It would pass if w::onCopyItemLocale were omitted or if the default onSave handler were lost. Assert all three handlers in $inner['inner_specs']['postbackHandlerName'].

Winter CMS Backend NestedForm form configuration string reference configuration object makeConfig documentation
💡 Result:
In Winter CMS, the NestedForm form widget allows you to render a nested form within a field, storing the data as a JSON array [1][2]. Configuration Object and makeConfig The makeConfig method is part of the System\Traits\ConfigMaker trait, which is utilized by backend controllers, widgets, and form behaviors to process configuration files [3][4][5]. It is not specific to the NestedForm widget, but rather a core mechanism for handling configuration across the Winter CMS backend [3]. When defining forms in Winter CMS, you typically use a YAML configuration file (e.g., config_form.yaml) or a PHP array [4]. The makeConfig method takes these definitions and converts them into a configuration object (or array) that the system can use [3]. Key details regarding this process: 1. System\Traits\ConfigMaker: This trait provides makeConfig(array $configFile = [], array $requiredConfig = []) [3]. It reads the supplied file or array and applies it to the object, ensuring required configuration keys are present [3]. 2. Backend Form Configuration: When you define a nested form, the form property within the NestedForm field definition contains the nested form's specific structure (fields, tabs, etc.) [1][2]. This structure follows the same syntax as standard backend forms [1][2]. 3. Implementation: While you generally define your form structure in YAML, the underlying system uses these methods to parse and build the form widgets [4][6]. If you are working within a custom class or extending existing functionality, you can use $this->makeConfig to process your own configuration files [3][4]. NestedForm Specifics To use the NestedForm widget, define the field type as nestedform and provide a form definition [1][2]: content: type: nestedform usePanelStyles: false form: fields: title: label: Title type: text For this to function correctly, the model attribute bound to the field must be a jsonable type or otherwise capable of storing array data [1][2].

💡 Result:
In Winter CMS, NestedForm.php refers to the backend form widget used to embed a secondary form within a primary form [1]. The method makeConfig() is a standard utility method in Winter CMS Backend widgets (provided by the Backend\Classes\WidgetBase or similar core infrastructure) used to load and parse configuration files [2]. When using NestedForm, you typically define the nested form's configuration—usually located in a separate YAML file—within your main field definition. Usage in a fields.yaml file looks like this: my_nested_field: label: Nested Form type: nestedform form: $/author/plugin/models/mymodel/fields_nested.yaml When the NestedForm widget initializes, it uses makeConfig() to process the path provided in the form property, converting that YAML configuration into a configuration object that the widget uses to render the child form fields [2]. Key points: 1. The form property in your nestedform field configuration should point to the location of the YAML file defining the nested fields [3]. 2. The makeConfig() method handles resolving path shortcuts like ~/ (base path) or $/ (plugins path) automatically [3]. 3. If you are extending a form programmatically (e.g., in a Controller's extendFormFields method), you might manually invoke makeConfig() if you are constructing the widget or the configuration array yourself [2]. If you are encountering issues where the NestedForm is not saving or displaying data, ensure that the data structure being handled by the nested form matches the expectations of the underlying model or relation [3]. Note that NestedForm is primarily designed for embedding forms; if you are trying to manage complex model relations, you may need to ensure your data is being correctly mapped to the parent model [4][3].

site:github.com/wintercms wintercms "function makeConfig" "ConfigMaker.php"
💡 Result:
There is no standard class named ConfigMaker.php or a function called makeConfig in the core Winter CMS framework. It appears you are likely looking for the Winter Laravel Config Writer library, which was originally part of the Storm library in Winter CMS and later extracted as a standalone utility [1][2][3]. This library is used to programmatically create and modify Laravel-style PHP configuration files while preserving formatting and comments [1][4]. In the Winter Laravel Config Writer library, the class used to manipulate PHP array-based configuration files is Winter\LaravelConfigWriter\ArrayFile [1][4]. Key usage patterns for this library include: 1. Opening a file: Use ArrayFile::open to open an existing configuration file or to create a new one [1][2]. use Winter\LaravelConfigWriter\ArrayFile; $config = ArrayFile::open(base_path('config/app.php')); 2. Setting values: Use the set method to modify keys and values [1][3]. $config->set('debug', false); 3. Adding function calls: You can add PHP function calls to your configuration file using the function method [2][4]. $config->function('env', ['APP_DEBUG', true]); 4. Finalizing changes: Always call the write method to save the changes to the file [1][2]. $config->write; If you are trying to manage environment variables specifically, Winter CMS provides the php artisan winter:env command, which helps convert configuration files to use.env variables [5].

💡 Result:
The term NestedForm refers to a specific form field type used in the Winter CMS backend development framework [1][2]. It allows developers to render a secondary, nested form directly within a primary form [1][2]. Key characteristics include: - Functionality: It collates reusable fields and makes them available across multiple forms [1]. The data submitted through the nested form is returned as an array [1][2]. - Storage: To store this data, the model attribute must be capable of handling arrayed data, such as a jsonable attribute [1]. - Configuration: A nested form supports standard form syntax, including the use of tabs, secondary tabs, and outside fields [1]. - Recursion: It is possible to nest forms within other nested forms [1]. - Options: Common configuration options include form (to define the form structure) and usePanelStyles (a boolean determining if the nested form should be wrapped in a panel container, defaulting to true) [1]. Example configuration: content: type: nestedform usePanelStyles: false form: fields: added_at: label: Date added type: datepicker details: label: Details type: textarea title: label: This is the title type: text

Normalize nested form configurations before traversal.
applyLocaleDatatableHandlers() only processes array-valued form definitions. Winter supports $/... references and configuration objects for nested forms. Normalize $config['form'] before calling addLocaleDatatableHandlers() so nested datatables receive the locale switch and copy handlers. Otherwise, their client-side values can be dropped during those requests.

Problem
Fixes #33.
A
datatableform widget inside a translatable repeater / nested form loses its values when the locale is switched. The Table widget only serialises its client-memory data for AJAX handlers listed in itspostbackHandlerName(defaultonSave), but the ML widgets switch/copy locales viaonSwitchItemLocale/onCopyItemLocale. So the datatable's data is never posted on those requests, and the previous locale's copy is stored without it — dropping the values.winter/wn-translate-plugin#560 added
postbackHandlerNamelist support to the Table widget, which is the mechanism to fix this — but nothing wired the ML widgets' (dynamically namespaced) switch/copy handlers into nested datatables, so out of the box the loss still happened.Fix
MLRepeater,MLNestedFormandMLBlocksnow inject their own namespacedonSwitchItemLocale+onCopyItemLocalehandlers into thepostbackHandlerNameof every nesteddatatablefield before the inner form is built. Existing handlers (incl. the defaultonSave) are preserved and de-duplicated. No per-field configuration is required.Implemented as a small shared helper on the
MLControltrait, called from each widget'sinit()beforeparent::init().Tests
tests/unit/traits/MLControlDatatableHandlersTest.php): the injection adds both handlers to datatable fields (keepingonSave), de-dupes existing handlers, descends into nested-form datatables, and leaves non-datatable fields untouched.Notes
Requires the Table widget's
postbackHandlerNamelist support from winter/winter#560 (already ondevelop/main). Datatables inside theblockswidget aren't covered yet — their field definitions come from the block registry rather than the widget'sform/groupsconfig; can follow up if needed.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
