List Field Type Laravel Package

emange/list-field_type

A Laravel/PHP field type add-on for the Streams Platform that adds configurable list fields to forms and models. It makes it easy to define, store, validate, and render ordered options or values in PyroCMS/Streams-based applications, with a lightweight setup and straightforward Composer installation...

Product Decisions This Supports

  • Enables a lightweight content-modeling feature: repeatable lists of plain text or textareas (FAQs, bullet lists, steps, ingredients, feature lists) without creating a new stream/table for each list.
  • Informs build-vs-buy: a low-cost candidate to avoid building a custom field type for simple repeatable text inputs in a PyroCMS/Streams-style admin, provided the team is willing to vendor or fork it.
  • Supports roadmap sequencing: useful for fast prototypes and small editorial/admin improvements; defer complex repeatable-field work until requirements justify a maintained repeater solution.
  • Clarifies scope: good for unstructured or semi-structured text arrays embedded in an existing entry; not suitable for relational data, media lists, nested schemas, validation-heavy forms, or reporting/query requirements.
  • Signals risk: zero stars, zero dependents, and a zero package score mean this should be treated as tactical/reference code, not a strategic platform dependency.

When to Consider This Package

  • Consider it when the product already runs on PyroCMS/Streams or a compatible Laravel field-type system and needs simple arrays of text/textareas without stream proliferation.
  • Consider it when engineering can review, vendor, and own the code, and when license, Laravel/PHP compatibility, and security posture are acceptable.
  • Consider it for internal admin tooling, prototypes, or low-criticality editorial fields where a fallback to a JSON column or custom field is straightforward.
  • Look elsewhere when you need a maintained dependency, community support, security guarantees, automated updates, or clear long-term ownership.
  • Look elsewhere for structured repeaters, media/file lists, relationship fields, nested data, advanced validation, localization, search/reporting over list items, or modern Laravel admin stacks where Filament Repeater, Nova fields, or custom JSON casts are better supported.
  • Given the near-zero adoption signals, do not adopt without a code audit, compatibility spike, and exit plan.

How to Pitch It (Stakeholders)

  • Executives: This is a small field-type add-on that lets editors enter simple lists without creating new database streams. It can speed up lightweight CMS/admin improvements, but its low adoption means it should be a tactical or prototype choice, not a platform commitment.
  • Engineering: Evaluate it as reference code or a vendored field type. Confirm compatibility, tests, security, and maintenance ownership; isolate it behind an interface and keep a fallback to a JSON column or custom field.
  • Product: It unlocks simple content patterns sooner—FAQs, bullets, steps—without schema sprawl. Avoid using it for business-critical structured data until the team explicitly owns and supports it.
