Passing data from form to fieldset

Question

I've got custom fieldset class like CustomerFieldset. I add it to the form like this:

$someData = $this->getSomeData();

$this->add(array(
    'name' => 'customfieldset',
    'type' => CustomFieldset::class,
));

How to pass $someData to this fieldset?

Answer 1

If you want to access the fieldset elements and set a value simply use

$form->get('customfieldset')->get('elementName')->setvalue('value');

If you want to pass other data then in your fielset create a property to hold it and create a setter.

private $propertyName;

public function setProperty($value)
(
    $this->propertyName = $value;
    return $this;
}

and call it from your form

$form->get('customfieldset')->setProperty($value);

Hope this points you in the right direction.
