laravel - Updating input field by leaving

Question

Is it possible with Laravel livewire to change a field in the database when leaving the input field?

Answer 1

You can use wire:model.lazy to achieve an action when leaving (loosing focus) on an input field.

<div>
    <input type="text" class="form-control" wire:model.lazy="billingRate">
</div>

class Rate extends Component
{
     public $billingRate;


    public function updatedBillingRate(){

       dd($this->billingRate);     // don't forget to use $this to access class property

        // persist to database here
    }
}

In the above example, whenever billingRate value changes, it will trigger the updatedBillingRate() method.
