CRUD: generate slug before function rules

[falconandrea]

Hi all, I'm new with Orchid and I'm trying it in this days.
I want to create a simpe Blog PostResource but I have a problem with the slug auto generator.
In the create form I have only the Title field and when I save the form I want to generate the slug, but I don't know where insert the function before rules function that give me error because slug is required.
I'm trying to insert it in the Model with the function setTitleAttribute or in the boot of the model with the static function saving but seems this functions are not read.
Thanks for the help!

Hi, you can do it following way (in PostEditScreen):

 public function createOrUpdate(Post $post, Request $request)
 {
        // skipped

        $arr = $request->input('post');
        $merged = array_merge(['slug' => Str::slug($request->input('post.title'))], $arr);

        $request->merge(['post' => $merged]);

        $validated = Validator::make($request->get('post'), [
            'title' => 'required|max:255',
            'slug' => [
                'required',
                Rule::unique('posts')->ignore($post->id),
            ],
            // additional validation rules here
        ])->validate();

        // $validated array with validated input, including slug

        $post->fill($validated)->save();

        // messages etc

        return redirect()->route('admin.post.list');
 }
