README

A package that simplifies the creation of dynamic, class-based Laravel components.

This package allows you to build complex, reusable UI components in PHP, making your backend and frontend integration seamless.

Note

About this fork.

This repository is a fork of Chat-Agency/laravel-backend-component. I worked on this repository while I was working with that company and decided to fork it and take ownership of it.

Install the package via Composer:

composer require juaniquillo/laravel-backend-component

To use the package’s Tailwind themes, configure Tailwind to scan the package's Blade files. The method differs slightly between Tailwind versions:

Tailwind CSS v3:

Add the package's view path to the content array in your tailwind.config.js file:

// tailwind.config.js
export default {
    content: [
        './vendor/juaniquillo/laravel-backend-component/resources/views/**/*.blade.php', // <- Add this line
        // other paths
    ],
    // ...
};

Tailwind CSS v4:

In your main CSS file (e.g., resources/css/app.css), use the @source at-rule to include the package's view path:

@import 'tailwindcss';

/* Add the path for the package's views */
@source '../../vendor/juaniquillo/laravel-backend-component/resources/views/**/*.blade.php';

Basic use

Use the MainBackendComponent class to construct your component. Pass the component name/path as the first parameter:

use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\MainBackendComponent;

$button = new MainBackendComponent('inline.button');

Alternatively, builders and an enum are available to streamline instance creation:

use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Builders\ComponentBuilder;
use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Enums\ComponentEnum;

$button = ComponentBuilder::make(ComponentEnum::BUTTON);

Since the main component class implements Laravel’s Htmlable interface, you can output the component using simple Blade syntax—no escaping needed:

{{-- This will render the button's HTML --}}
{{ $button }}

Components can be composed with other components:

use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Builders\ComponentBuilder;
use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Enums\ComponentEnum;

$divWithButton = ComponentBuilder::make(ComponentEnum::DIV)
    ->setContent(
        ComponentBuilder::make(ComponentEnum::BUTTON)
            ->setContent('Click me!')
    );

Theming

The package supports theming, primarily designed for use with Tailwind CSS classes. All themes are stored inside resources/views/_themes/tailwind by default, ensuring they are automatically discovered by Tailwind's scanner.

You can apply a theme using the setTheme method:

use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Builders\ComponentBuilder;
use Juaniquillo\BackendComponents\Enums\ComponentEnum;

$button = ComponentBuilder::make(ComponentEnum::BUTTON)
    ->setTheme('theme_file', 'theme_name');

Tests

Run tests using Composer:

composer test
