Show success message on Drupal form submission
One of the functions that Drupal offers to its users are forms. As they explain in their official documentation “The web form module allows you to create any type of form to collect any type of data, which can be sent to any application or system. Every behavior and aspect of your forms and their inputs are customizable.”
One of the characteristics that Drupal forms have is that they can execute a success message once a visitor to the page enters their data, so both the visitor and the person who configures the page are aware that the whole process is over. executed correctly.
To achieve this, you must use this code sequence:
<?php
namespace Drupal\my_module\Form;
use Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface;
use Drupal\Core\Form\FormBase;
use Drupal\Core\Ajax\AjaxResponse;
use Drupal\Core\Ajax\HtmlCommand;
/**
* Ajax form example.
*/
class AjaxFormSubmitExample extends FormBase {
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function getFormId() {
return 'ajax_form_submit_example';
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function buildForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state) {
$form['message'] = [
'#type' => 'markup',
'#markup' => '<div id="result-message"></div>'
];
$form['data'] = [
'#type' => 'text field',
'#title' => $this->t('Some data'),
];
$form['submit'] = [
'#type' => 'submit',
'#name' => 'submit',
'#value' => $this->t('Submit'),
'#ajax' => [
'callback' => '::submitForm',
'event' => 'click',
'progress' => [
'type' => 'throbber',
],
],
];
return $form;
}
/**
* {@inheritdoc}
*/
public function submitForm(array &$form, FormStateInterface $form_state) {
\Drupal::messenger()->addMessage($this->t('Form Submitted Successfully'), 'status', TRUE);
$message = [
'#theme' => 'status_messages',
'#message_list' => drupal_get_messages(),
];
$messages = \Drupal::service('renderer')->render($message);
$response = new AjaxResponse();
$response->addCommand(new HtmlCommand('#result-message', $messages));
return $response;
}
}
In this way the data submission success message is achieved in the Drupal form. You can already collect all the data you need from your visitors, for example, to create contact databases or a list of participants in an event.
