Problem with spatie/laravel-tags

[quiquegarcia]

Someone has tried to make a CRUD panel for a Tag Model extending Spatie\Tags\Tag?

To create a CRUD I needed to use CRUDTrait, so I extended from Spatie\Tags\Tag Model:

App\Models\Tag.php

namespace App\Models;

use Backpack\CRUD\app\Models\Traits\CrudTrait;
use Spatie\Tags\Tag as SpatieTagModel;

class Tag extends SpatieTagModel
{
    use CrudTrait;
}

And set it up my CRUD Controller:

app\Http\Controllers\Admin\TagCrudController.php

protected function setupCreateOperation()
{
    CRUD::setValidation(TagRequest::class);

    $this->crud->addFields([
        ['name' => 'name', 'label' => __('labels.name'), 'type' => 'text'],
        ['name' => 'slug', 'label' => __('labels.slug'), 'type' => 'text'],
        [
            'name' => 'type', 'label' => __('labels.type'), 'type' => 'select2_from_array',
            'options' => ['category' => __('labels.category'), 'topic' => __('labels.topic')],
        ],
    ]);
}

protected function setupUpdateOperation()
{
    $this->setupCreateOperation();
}

This resulted in a properly rendered CRUD Panel

But when I try to create or update a Tag, translated attributes like name becomes null:

SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'slug' cannot be null (SQL: update `tags` set `name` = {"es":null}, `slug` = ?, `tags`.`updated_at` = 2020-11-17 22:25:27 where `id` = 13) 

I noticed that when I manually update the form with the input attribute name="name" to name="name[es]" update and creation works well.

This can be a bug or I'm missing something?

Hello @quiquegarcia

I think I didn't fully understand, problem is with slug can't be null, but you solved it changing name in html ?

I think the problem here relies on the slug beeing translatable.

Are you using backpack slug traits ?

use Backpack\CRUD\app\Models\Traits\SpatieTranslatable\Sluggable;
use Backpack\CRUD\app\Models\Traits\SpatieTranslatable\SluggableScopeHelpers;

https://backpackforlaravel.com/docs/4.1/crud-operation-update#translatable-models-and-multi-language-cruds

Best,

Hi @pxpm

Yes, solved when I temporally change name in html.

Slug is failing because the value of name property in the model is null so Slugger is trying to generate an slug from null string.

I think the problem relies in the value of the form not being sending to the controller, when I change namein html everything works well.

I tested using HasTranslation from Backpack instead of Spatie, but since Tag Model is extending from Spatie various methods are incompatible
