Sharp Context

Sharp provide a way to grab some request context values in the application code.

Ask for context

The class handling the context is Code16\Sharp\Http\Context\CurrentSharpRequest, which is a singleton. So at any point in the request, you can get it via:

app(Code16\Sharp\Http\Context\CurrentSharpRequest::class);

or with the global helper:

currentSharpRequest();

Here's a quick example:

class MyForm extends SharpForm
{
    function buildFormFields()
    {
        $this->addField(
            SharpFormTextField::make("name")
                ->setReadOnly(currentSharpRequest()->isUpdate())
        );
        [...]
    }
    [...]
}

The context is often useful in a Form situation to display or hide fields depending on the instance status (creation, update), or in a Validator to add an id exception in an unique rule.

Methods

`entityKey(): string`

Grab the current entity key.

`isEntityList(): bool`

`isShow(): bool`

`isForm(): bool`

Find out the current page type.

`isUpdate(): bool`

`isCreation(): bool`

In Form case, check the current status.

`instanceId(): string`

In Form and Show cases, grab the instance id.

`breadcrumb(): Collection`

Returns a Collection of Code16\Sharp\Http\Context\Util\BreadcrumbItems

`getCurrentBreadcrumbItem(): BreadcrumbItem`

Get the current breadcrumb item.

`getPreviousShowFromBreadcrumbItems(?string $entityKey = null): ?BreadcrumbItem`

Get (if existing) the closest Show in the breadcrumb.

`globalFilterFor($filterName)`

Get the value of a Global Filter: see the Global Filter documentation to know more about this feature.
