Provides a render element that wraps child elements in a container.

Surrounds child elements with a <div> and adds attributes such as classes or an HTML ID.

Properties:

  • #optional: Indicates whether the container should render when it has no visible children. Defaults to FALSE.

Usage example:

$form['needs_accommodation'] = [
    '#type' => 'checkbox',
    '#title' => $this->t('Need Special Accommodations?'),
];
$form['accommodation'] = [
    '#type' => 'container',
    '#attributes' => [
        'class' => [
            'accommodation',
        ],
    ],
    '#states' => [
        'invisible' => [
            'input[name="needs_accommodation"]' => [
                'checked' => FALSE,
            ],
        ],
    ],
];
$form['accommodation']['diet'] = [
    '#type' => 'textfield',
    '#title' => $this->t('Dietary Restrictions'),
];
