Input Types

Input type classes configure an Alert instance for SweetAlert2 input mode. The bundle ships both specialized classes and a generic HTML input wrapper.

Constructor overview

Class	Key constructor arguments
Text	label, value, placeholder, inputAttributes
Textarea	label, value, placeholder, inputAttributes
Select	options, label, value, inputAttributes
Radio	options, label, value, inputAttributes
Checkbox	label, value, inputAttributes
File	label, accept, inputAttributes
Range	label, value, min, max, step, inputAttributes
HtmlInputType	InputType enum value, label, value, placeholder, inputAttributes

Generic HTML inputs

Use HtmlInputType when you want a native HTML input that does not require a dedicated class, for example:

email
password
number
tel
url
search
date
datetime-local
time
week
month

  use Pentiminax\UX\SweetAlert\Enum\InputType;
use Pentiminax\UX\SweetAlert\InputType\HtmlInputType;

$alertManager->input(
    inputType: new HtmlInputType(
        type: InputType::Email,
        label: 'Work email',
        placeholder: 'name@company.com'
    ),
    title: 'Invite a colleague'
);

Why specialized classes still exist

Select, Radio, Checkbox, File, Range, and Textarea are intentionally specialized because they need custom option handling, placeholder rules, or attribute transformations.

For example:

Select and Radio translate options into SweetAlert inputOptions
File can write an accept attribute for you
Range maps min, max, and step to input attributes

Placeholder support

Not every SweetAlert input mode supports placeholders. The underlying InputType enum encodes these rules so unsupported placeholders are ignored automatically.
