asmit/resized-column

Resizable, reorderable, and pinnable table columns for Filament. Users drag column edges to resize, drag headers to reorder, and pin columns to the left — every choice persisted per user in the session, the database, or both.

Features

• Drag-to-resize — grab any column edge; widths persist per user
• Drag-to-reorder — ->dragReorderableColumns() puts a grip on each header
• Pinned columns — ->sticky() for developer defaults, ->stickableColumns() for a user-facing "Pin columns" panel with draft + Apply, plus click-the-pin to unpin from the header
• Persistence — session by default, database opt-in; widths, order, and pins share one settings row per user
• Works without a panel — the same trait drives tables in plain Livewire components
• Filament-native styling — pinned cells match Filament's own table surfaces in light and dark, and stay opaque while scrolling
• Customisable trigger — restyle the toolbar button via ->stickyManagerTriggerAction()

Requirements

• Filament 3, 4, or 5

Installation

composer require asmit/resized-column
npm --prefix vendor/asmit/resized-column run build
php artisan filament:assets

When developing the package from source (path repo), run npm run build inside the package directory whenever you change resources/css/ or resources/js/, then php artisan filament:assets in the host app.

Register the plugin in your panel provider:

use Asmit\ResizedColumn\ResizedColumnPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->plugins([
            ResizedColumnPlugin::make()
                ->preserveOnDB(), // optional — database persistence
        ]);
}

Database persistence also needs the settings table:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Asmit\ResizedColumn\ResizedColumnServiceProvider" --tag=resized-column-migrations
php artisan migrate

Usage

Add the trait to any list page or Livewire component that renders a table:

use Asmit\ResizedColumn\HasResizableColumn;

class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    use HasResizableColumn;

    protected static string $resource = UserResource::class;
}

Opt into reordering and pinning per table:

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->columns([
            TextColumn::make('name')->sticky(), // pinned by default
            TextColumn::make('email'),
            TextColumn::make('created_at'),
        ])
        ->dragReorderableColumns()
        ->stickableColumns();
}
