Repeater Field does not store values using wire:model.defer

[viezel]

Describe the bug
When using Repeater Form Field combined with wire:model.defer only the very last field in the repeater is stored. Please have a look at the screenshots attached.
I need to use "defer" due to a very large form.

Environment:

• Tall-forms version: 7.8.0
• Livewire version: latest
• Laravel version: latesst
• AlpineJS version (only needed if problem is Alpine related):
• $wrapWithLayout true/false: false
• Optional model binding?
• Have you published the view files?: no
• Have you published, and edited the config file?: no
• Is it a Create or Update form?: both

Fields Definition

Input::make('Name')
    ->rules('required')
    ->wire('wire:model.defer'),
          
Repeater::make('Ingredients *', 'ingredients')
    ->fields([
        Input::make('Quantity')->type('number')->rules('required')->colspan(3)->wire('wire:model.defer'),
        Select::make('Unit')->options($unitList)->rules('required|integer')->colspan(3)->wire('wire:model.defer'),
        Select::make('Ingredient')->options($ingredientList)->rules('required|integer')->colspan(6)->wire('wire:model.defer'),
    ])
    ->sortable()
    ->wire('wire:model.defer')
    ->help('Click to add an Ingredient'),

Input::make('Servings')
    ->type('number')
    ->rules('required|integer')
    ->wire('wire:model.defer'),

Screenshots

If I fill out all fields and hit "save" I get:

The below is posted to the backend via Livewire. All the fields and input data are present.

If I use Selects, Input, Trix etc. outside of a Repeater - then defer works.

Hi @viezel
This is something with your project. ->wire() is ignored on Repeater, KeyVal, Panel and Group fields.

I tested both updatedFoo(), saveFoo() and checked the database after normal submit.

But, I added the ->wire() methods to these field types, it's available in v7.8.1

Check that you added $cast to array on the Model for this field?
It's recommended that your field in db is a json column.

alright.. ill keep fighting. Thanks for the update 👍

@viezel Just a thought. Try removing wire() on all nested fields and apply it only to the Repater.

Haven't tested that scenario.

Please report back if it solved it.
