Attaching values ​in a Magento2 XML type input - magento

Question

I tried to add a value in my UI form which is in xml type but I didn't succeed with the methods I found.
For example: this is my code
<field name="client_id">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">text</item>
<item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">ClientId</item>
<item name="value" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Module\Core\DataObjects</item>
<item name="formElement" xsi:type="string">input</item>
<item name="source" xsi:type="string">smartbusiness</item>
<item name="dataScope" xsi:type="string">client_id</item>
<item name="validation" xsi:type="array">
<item name="required-entry" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
<item name="min_text_length" xsi:type="number">10</item>
<item name="max_text_length" xsi:type="number">250</item>
<item name="no-whitespace" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
</item>
</item>
</argument>
</field>
And in my custom class I have that
<?php
namespace Module\Core\DataObjects;
use Module\Core\Model\SettingsFactory;
use Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager;
class SettingsData
{
protected array $setting = [];
public function __construct()
{
$objectManager = ObjectManager::getInstance();
$modelFactory = $objectManager->get(SettingsFactory::class);
$collection = $modelFactory->create()->getCollection();
$collection->getSelect()->limit(1);
if ($collection->getSize()) {
$this->setting = $collection->getData()[0];
}
}
public function getData()
{
return $this->getClientId();
}
}
Any ideas how I could try?
I also tried to put class="Name of my class" in value, but it didn't work
I tried the above method + to attach the class name in the class attribute

Step 1:- Create a ui_form in
view/adminhtml/ui_component/sunarc_demo_type_form.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<form xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/Ui/etc/ui_configuration.xsd">
<!--main part of the grid-->
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="js_config" xsi:type="array">
<!--Define where to find the data sources-->
<item name="provider" xsi:type="string">sunarc_demo_type_form.sunarc_demo_type_form_data_source</item>
<item name="deps" xsi:type="string">sunarc_demo_type_form.sunarc_demo_type_form_data_source</item>
</item>
<item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Add Dummy Data</item>
<item name="layout" xsi:type="array">
<item name="type" xsi:type="string">tabs</item>
</item>
<!-- <item name="buttons" xsi:type="array">
<item name="back" xsi:type="string">Sunarc\Enquiry\Block\Adminhtml\Type\Edit\BackButton</item>
<item name="reset" xsi:type="string">Sunarc\Enquiry\Block\Adminhtml\Type\Edit\ResetButton</item>
<item name="save" xsi:type="string">Sunarc\Enquiry\Block\Adminhtml\Type\Edit\SaveButton</item> -->
<!-- </item> -->
</argument>
<dataSource name="sunarc_demo_type_form_data_source">
<argument name="dataProvider" xsi:type="configurableObject">
<argument name="class" xsi:type="string">Sunarc\Demo\Model\Ui\DataProvider</argument>
<argument name="name" xsi:type="string">sunarc_demo_type_form_data_source</argument>
<argument name="primaryFieldName" xsi:type="string">entity_id</argument>
<argument name="requestFieldName" xsi:type="string">id</argument>
</argument>
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="js_config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="component" xsi:type="string">Magento_Ui/js/form/provider</item>
<item name="submit_url" xsi:type="url" path="*/*/save"/>
</item>
</argument>
</dataSource>
<fieldset name="demo">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true">Add/Edit Type</item>
</item>
</argument>
<!-- This field represents form id and is hidden -->
<field name="entity_id">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="visible" xsi:type="boolean">false</item>
<item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">text</item>
<item name="formElement" xsi:type="string">input</item>
<item name="source" xsi:type="string">type</item>
</item>
</argument>
</field>
<field name="demo_data">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="label" xsi:type="string">Demo Data</item>
<item name="visible" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
<item name="dataType" xsi:type="string">text</item>
<item name="formElement" xsi:type="string">input</item>

<settings>

</settings>
</field>
<!-- IF YOU WANT TO SHOW STATIC VALUE -->
<field name="text_example" formElement="input">
<argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
<item name="config" xsi:type="array">
<item name="default" xsi:type="string">SAMPLE TEXT HERE</item>

</argument>
<settings>
<label translate="true">SAMPLE TEXT</label>
<visible>true</visible>
<disabled>false</disabled>
<elementTmpl>ui/form/element/text</elementTmpl>
</settings>
</field>
</fieldset>
</form>
Step 2:- Create a DataSource File in Model/Ui/DataProvider.php
<?php
namespace Sunarc\Demo\Model\Ui;
use Sunarc\Demo\Model\ResourceModel\Demo\CollectionFactory;
class DataProvider extends \Magento\Ui\DataProvider\AbstractDataProvider
{
protected $loadedData;
/**
* #param string $name
* #param string $primaryFieldName
* #param string $requestFieldName
* #param CollectionFactory $typeCollectionFactory
* #param array $meta
* #param array $data
*/
public function __construct(
$name,
$primaryFieldName,
$requestFieldName,
CollectionFactory $typeCollectionFactory,
array $meta = [],
array $data = []
) {
$this->collection = $typeCollectionFactory->create();
parent::__construct($name, $primaryFieldName, $requestFieldName, $meta, $data);
}
/**
* Get data
*
* #return array
*/
public function getData()
{
if (isset($this->loadedData)) {
return $this->loadedData;
}
$items = $this->collection->getItems();
foreach ($items as $item) {
$this->loadedData[$item->getData('entity_id')]['demo']['demo_data'] = $item->getData('demo_data');
}
return $this->loadedData;
// return [];
}
}
