# ACF Builder
Create configuration arrays for [Advanced Custom Fields Pro](https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/pro/) using the builder pattern and a fluent API.
Quickly create, register, and reuse ACF configurations, and keep them in your source code repository. To read more about registering ACF fields via php consult https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/register-fields-via-php/

### Simple Example
```php
$banner = new StoutLogic\AcfBuilder\FieldsBuilder('banner');
$banner
->addText('title')
->addWysiwyg('content')
->addImage('background_image')
->setLocation('post_type', '==', 'page')
->or('post_type', '==', 'post');
add_action('acf/init', function() use ($banner) {
acf_add_local_field_group($banner->build());
});
```
`$banner->build();` will return:
```php
[
'key' => 'group_banner',
'title' => 'Banner',
'fields' => [
[
'key' => 'field_title',
'name' => 'title',
'label' => 'Title',
'type' => 'text'
],
[
'key' => 'field_content',
'name' => 'content',
'label' => 'Content',
'type' => 'wysiwyg'
],
[
'key' => 'field_background_image',
'name' => 'background_image',
'label' => 'Background Image',
'type' => 'image'
],
],
'location' => [
[
[
'param' => 'post_type',
'operator' => '==',
'value' => 'page'
]
],
[
[
'param' => 'post_type',
'operator' => '==',
'value' => 'post'
]
]
]
]
```
As you can see it saves you a lot of typing and is less error-prone. But brevity and correctness isn't the only benefit, you can reuse field configurations in multiple places. For example, a group of fields used for backgrounds:
### Reuse Example
```php
use StoutLogic\AcfBuilder\FieldsBuilder;
$background = new FieldsBuilder('background');
$background
->addTab('Background')
->addImage('background_image')
->addTrueFalse('fixed')
->instructions("Check to add a parallax effect where the background image doesn't move when scrolling")
->addColorPicker('background_color');
$banner = new FieldsBuilder('banner');
$banner
->addTab('Content')
->addText('title')
->addWysiwyg('content')
->addFields($background)
->setLocation('post_type', '==', 'page');
$section = new FieldsBuilder('section');
$section
->addTab('Content')
->addText('section_title')
->addRepeater('columns', ['min' => 1, 'layout' => 'block'])
->addTab('Content')
->addText('title')
->addWysiwyg('content')
->addFields($background)
->endRepeater()
->addFields($background)
->setLocation('post_type', '==', 'page');
```
Here a `background` field group is created, and then used in two other field groups, including twice in the `section` field group. This can really DRY up your code and keep your admin UI consistent. If you wanted to add a light/dark field for the text color field based on the background used, it would just need to be added in one spot and used everywhere.
## Install
Use composer to install:
```
composer require stoutlogic/acf-builder
```
If your project isn't using composer, you can require the `autoload.php` file.
## Tests
To run the tests you can manually run
```
vendor/bin/phpunit
```
or you can use the built in gulp task to run it on file change
```
npm install
gulp
```
## Requirements
PHP 5.4 through 7.2 supported but automated tests cannot be run anymore so it might stop working at some point.
>= 7.4, 8 Tested
