Nova Custom Views

This package allows you to create customizable views for specific Nova resources.

Installation

composer require digitalcloud/nova-custom-views

Then you need to add the service provider to your config/app.php after the NovaServiceProvider:

 /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Autoloaded Service Providers
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | The service providers listed here will be automatically loaded on the
    | request to your application. Feel free to add your own services to
    | this array to grant expanded functionality to your applications.
    |
    */

    'providers' => [

        ...
        App\Providers\NovaServiceProvider::class,
        ...
        devmtm\NovaCustomViews\NovaCustomViewsServiceProvider::class,
        ...

Create a new view This is the same process as for any other Nova Tool, ResourceTool or Field. You can simply use this command in your terminal:

php artisan nova:views resource-name view-name

This will create your view component in /nova-components/views/resource-name. If you've installed the dependencies during the previous process, you can directly go ahead and use:

cd ./nova-components/views/resource-name && npm run watch

Allowed values for view-name are [index | lens | detail | create | update | attach | update-attached]

If you dont provide view-name, it will create all previous nova views.

You can modify any view component inside /nova-components/views/resource-name/resources/js/views

Example Usage: Creating custom detail view for user resource

To create a new view, say user detail view, you can run the command:

php artisan nova:views user detail

This will create a new path: '/nova-components/views/user' which contains all generated user views. The new view is extended the default user nova detail view (using vue mixins). You can modify the default view by going to the path: '/nova-components/views/user/resources/js/views/Detail.vue' and add your custom code as the following:

<template>
   <div>YOUR_CODE_HERE</div>
</template>

Example Usage: Creating Custom Dashboard

To create a custom dashboard view, you can run the command:

php artisan nova:dashboard

This will create a new path: '/nova-components/views/dashboard' which contains the custom dashboard component. The new view is extended the default nova dashboard view (using vue mixins). You can modify the dashboard view by going to the path: '/nova-components/views/user/resources/js/views/Dashboard.vue' and add your custom code as the following:

<template>
   <div>YOUR_CODE_HERE</div>
</template>
