Laravel 4 contained a Form helpers package called HTML but it was removed from 5 to cut down on cruft. HTML is still available as a first party package though so below are instructions on getting it back.
First require it in:
1 | composer require "illuminate/html":"5.0.*" |
Next up add the service provider and aliases. Open /config/app.php and update as follows:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 | 'providers' => [ ... 'Illuminate\Html\HtmlServiceProvider', ], 'aliases' => [ ... 'Form'=> 'Illuminate\Html\FormFacade', 'Html'=> 'Illuminate\Html\HtmlFacade', ], |
That’s it. To confirm it’s working use the following:
1 2 3 | php artisan tinker > Form::text('foo') "<input name=\"foo\" type=\"text\">" |
