Tag

The tag input type renders VInputTag, a tag picker backed by the Modularous Tag entity. It auto-resolves the list of available tags and the update endpoint from the current module/route context, or from an explicit taggable model class.

Hydrate

Class: TagHydrateConfig type: tagOutput type: input-tag → VInputTag

The hydrate:

1. Sets returnObject: false, chips: false, multiple: false as base defaults
2. Auto-resolution via _moduleName / _routeName (set automatically by the module config pipeline):
   • Resolves endpoint → {module}.{route}.tags action URL
   • Resolves updateEndpoint → {module}.{route}.tagsUpdate action URL
   • Fetches items via repository->getTags()
   • Sets taggable to the repository's model class
3. Explicit taggable class (when _moduleName is absent):
   • Fetches items via $taggableModel->localeTagsList() (translated) or Tag::whereNamespace($taggable)->get()
4. Falls back updateEndpoint to route('admin.tag.update') if not resolved
5. Sets default to the first item's itemValue (non-translated, non-empty items only)

Translated tags

When translated: true is set, the hydrate adds a cacheKey (locale-scoped) and an updatePayload carrying the current locale so tag updates are applied to the correct translation.

Usage

Auto-resolved (standard module context)

[
    'type'  => 'tag',
    'name'  => 'tags',
    'label' => 'Tags',
]

Translated tags

[
    'type'       => 'tag',
    'name'       => 'tags',
    'label'      => 'Tags',
    'translated' => true,
]

Explicit taggable model

[
    'type'     => 'tag',
    'name'     => 'tags',
    'label'    => 'Tags',
    'taggable' => \App\Models\Post::class,
]

Schema Defaults

Key	Default	Description

itemTitle	'name'	Field displayed for each tag
cascadeKey	'items'	Key used when cascading tag lists
