## Introduction

The repeatable entry allows you to repeat a set of entries and layout components for items in an array or relationship.

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry;
use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

RepeatableEntry::make('comments')
    ->schema([
        TextEntry::make('author.name'),
        TextEntry::make('title'),
        TextEntry::make('content')
            ->columnSpan(2),
    ])
    ->columns(2)
```

As you can see, the repeatable entry has an embedded `schema()` which gets repeated for each item.

For example, the state of this entry might be represented as:

```php
[
    [
        'author' => ['name' => 'Jane Doe'],
        'title' => 'Wow!',
        'content' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nullam euismod, nisl eget aliquam ultricies, nunc nisl aliquet nunc, quis aliquam nisl.',
    ],
    [
        'author' => ['name' => 'John Doe'],
        'title' => 'This isn\'t working. Help!',
        'content' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nullam euismod, nisl eget aliquam ultricies, nunc nisl aliquet nunc, quis aliquam nisl.',
    ],
]
```

Alternatively, `comments` and `author` could be Eloquent relationships, `title` and `content` could be attributes on the comment model, and `name` could be an attribute on the author model. Filament will automatically handle the relationship loading and display the data in the same way.

## Grid layout

You may organize repeatable items into columns by using the `grid()` method:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry;

RepeatableEntry::make('comments')
    ->schema([
        // ...
    ])
    ->grid(2)
```

This method accepts the same options as the `columns()` method of the [grid](../schemas/layouts#grid-system). This allows you to responsively customize the number of grid columns at various breakpoints.

<UtilityInjection set="infolistEntries" version="5.x">As well as allowing a static value, the `grid()` method also accepts a function to dynamically calculate it. You can inject various utilities into the function as parameters.</UtilityInjection>

## Removing the styled container

By default, each item in a repeatable entry is wrapped in a container styled as a card. You may remove the styled container using `contained()`:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry;

RepeatableEntry::make('comments')
    ->schema([
        // ...
    ])
    ->contained(false)
```

<UtilityInjection set="infolistEntries" version="5.x">As well as allowing a static value, the `contained()` method also accepts a function to dynamically calculate it. You can inject various utilities into the function as parameters.</UtilityInjection>

## Table repeatable layout

You can present repeatable items in a table format using the `table()` method, which accepts an array of `TableColumn` objects. These objects represent the columns of the table, which correspond to any components in the schema of the entry:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\IconEntry;
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry;
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry\TableColumn;
use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

RepeatableEntry::make('comments')
    ->table([
        TableColumn::make('Author'),
        TableColumn::make('Title'),
        TableColumn::make('Published'),
    ])
    ->schema([
        TextEntry::make('author.name'),
        TextEntry::make('title'),
        IconEntry::make('is_published')
            ->boolean(),
    ])
```

<AutoScreenshot name="infolists/entries/repeatable/table" alt="Repeatable entry with table layout" version="5.x" />

The labels displayed in the header of the table are passed to the `TableColumn::make()` method. If you want to provide an accessible label for a column but do not wish to display it, you can use the `hiddenHeaderLabel()` method:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry\TableColumn;

TableColumn::make('Name')
    ->hiddenHeaderLabel()
```

You can enable wrapping of the column header using the `wrapHeader()` method:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry\TableColumn;

TableColumn::make('Name')
    ->wrapHeader()
```

You can also adjust the alignment of the column header using the `alignment()` method, passing an `Alignment` option of `Alignment::Start`, `Alignment::Center`, or `Alignment::End`:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry\TableColumn;
use Filament\Support\Enums\Alignment;

TableColumn::make('Name')
    ->alignment(Alignment::Center)
```

You can set a fixed column width using the `width()` method, passing a string value that represents the width of the column. This value is passed directly to the `style` attribute of the column header:

```php
use Filament\Infolists\Components\RepeatableEntry\TableColumn;

TableColumn::make('Name')
    ->width('200px')
```
