Soudle.js – jQuery Plugin for Subscription Form + Laravel & CodeIgniter Admin Panel

Introduction

Soudle.js is a jQuery plugin that provides a user-friendly and customizable subscription form for your website. With Soudle.js, you can easily integrate a subscription form on your website and manage subscriptions using a Laravel or CodeIgniter admin panel. In this tutorial, we will cover how to use Soudle.js to create a subscription form and manage subscriptions using a Laravel or CodeIgniter admin panel.

Prerequisites

Before starting this tutorial, you should have the following:

• A basic understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
• A Laravel or CodeIgniter project set up on your local machine
• A MySQL database set up for your Laravel or CodeIgniter project
• A text editor or IDE (Integrated Development Environment)

Step 1: Install Soudle.js

To install Soudle.js, you can use npm or yarn:

• npm: npm install soudele.js
• yarn: yarn add soudele.js

Alternatively, you can download the Soudle.js plugin from the official website and include it in your project manually.

Step 2: Create a Subscription Form

To create a subscription form using Soudle.js, you need to add the following code to your HTML file:

<form id="subscription-form">
    <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name">
    <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email">
    <input type="password" name="password" placeholder="Password">
    <button type="submit">Subscribe</button>
</form>

Step 3: Initialize Soudle.js

To initialize Soudle.js, you need to add the following code to your JavaScript file:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#subscription-form').soudle({
        url: 'path/to/your/server-side-script',
        onSuccess: function(data) {
            // handle success
        },
        onFailure: function(error) {
            // handle error
        }
    });
});

Replace path/to/your/server-side-script with the URL of your server-side script that will handle the subscription form submission.

Step 4: Create a Server-Side Script

To create a server-side script that will handle the subscription form submission, you need to create a new PHP file in your Laravel or CodeIgniter project. For example, you can create a file called SubscriptionController.php in your Laravel project or Subscription.php in your CodeIgniter project.

Here is an example of a server-side script that will handle the subscription form submission using Laravel:

<?php

namespace AppHttpControllers;

use IlluminateHttpRequest;

class SubscriptionController extends Controller
{
    public function store(Request $request)
    {
        // validate the request data
        $request->validate([
            'name' => 'required',
            'email' => 'required|email',
            'password' => 'required'
        ]);

        // create a new subscription
        $subscription = new Subscription();
        $subscription->name = $request->input('name');
        $subscription->email = $request->input('email');
        $subscription->password = bcrypt($request->input('password'));
        $subscription->save();

        // return a success response
        return response()->json(['message' => 'Subscription created successfully']);
    }
}

And here is an example of a server-side script that will handle the subscription form submission using CodeIgniter:

<?php

defined('BASEPATH') or exit('No direct script access allowed');

class Subscription extends CI_Controller
{
    public function store()
    {
        // validate the request data
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('name', 'Name', 'required');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('email', 'Email', 'required|valid_email');
        $this->form_validation->set_rules('password', 'Password', 'required');

        if ($this->form_validation->run() == FALSE) {
            // return a failure response
            echo json_encode(['message' => 'Failed to create subscription']);
        } else {
            // create a new subscription
            $subscription = new Subscription();
            $subscription->name = $this->input->post('name');
            $subscription->email = $this->input->post('email');
            $subscription->password = password_hash($this->input->post('password'), PASSWORD_DEFAULT);
            $subscription->save();

            // return a success response
            echo json_encode(['message' => 'Subscription created successfully']);
        }
    }
}

Step 5: Test the Subscription Form

To test the subscription form, open your HTML file in a web browser and fill out the form with valid data. Click the submit button to submit the form. If the form submission is successful, you should see a success message returned from the server-side script.

Conclusion

In this tutorial, we have covered how to use Soudle.js to create a subscription form and manage subscriptions using a Laravel or CodeIgniter admin panel. By following these steps, you can easily integrate a subscription form on your website and manage subscriptions using a server-side script.
