Laravel Submit Form with Toggle Checkbox

Question

There is a switch button in the form. My purpose of using this switch button is to determine whether it is passive or active. When I submit the submit form, its value is "on". What I want to do is to go to the controllers as "passive" if its value is "active" if it is selected, and write it to the database like that.

Add standard form only, not ajax

HTML Code below

<div class="col-lg-6">
  <span class="switch">
    <label>
      <input name="status" type="checkbox" checked="checked"/>
      <span></span>
    </label>
  </span>
  <span class="form-text text-muted">{{ __('Is it active?') }}</span>
</div>
</div>

Checkbox value wont pass to controller, if the checkbox is not checked — STA

You can use $model->status = ($request->status) ?? 1 : 0 ; — STA

If you just want to know whether the checkbox is checked, then the answer provided by @Aian will work. You can also use has() on the Request object to determine if a property is present:

if ($request->has('status')) {
    // 'status' property present, do something
}

If you want to send the value passive to your controller rather than use the default on value, then you need to provide that on your input:

<input name="status" type="checkbox" checked="checked" value="passive" />

Now if your checkbox is checked, the value of $request->status will be passive rather than on.
