Nested HasMany Repeater – deleteAction always receives parent record instead of child

[torpid jetty]

Hey everyone 👋

I have a nested Repeater setup — basically a HasMany inside another HasMany.
When I call ->deleteAction($record) on the inner repeater and dd($record) inside the action’s body, I always get the parent record, not the specific child item that was deleted.

This makes it impossible to check certain conditions before deleting a specific child.

Has anyone run into this before or found a way to access the actual child record inside the delete action of a nested repeater?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Can you provide the full code? Might need to use $state.

[torpid jetty]

It is basicaly this code:

Repeater::make('frameworkGoals')
    ->hiddenLabel()
    ->relationship('frameworkGoals')
    ->deleteAction(fn ($record) => dd($record)) // is returning the schema model (in my case ActionPlan) but I need the FrameworkGoal
    ->schema([
        Repeater::make('targetGoals')
            ->hiddenLabel()
            ->relationship('targetGoals')
            ->deleteAction(fn ($record) => dd($record)) // is returning the parent model (in my case FrameworkGoal) but I need the TargetGoal
            ->schema([]),
    ])

So the delete action will do that as fn($record), is the parent record as you passed it in, what I think you'll want is:

->deleteAciton(fn($action) => $action->action(fn($record) => dd($record)))

I think

That makes sense. I will try that later. 🤔

hum, not sure if you can access the record, but I think you can access the itemState

->deleteAction(fn (Action $action) => $action
    ->action(function (array $arguments, Repeater $component) {
        $itemData = $component->getItemState($arguments['item']);
    })
)

example

Wow, thanks. How did I miss that in the docs? I actually read this chapter... 🤦‍♂️

no problem 🙂
