howdu/filament-record-switcher

Resource title navigation dropdown with search for Filament

Subtly convert the page title into a dropdown navigation that's displayed on click.

It works similar to Filament's global search but only shows results for the current resource.

Compatibility

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require howdu/filament-record-switcher

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-record-switcher-views"

Usage

1. Register plugin inside your PanelProvider(s). E.g app/Filament/Providers/AdminPanelProvider.php

use Howdu\FilamentRecordSwitcher\FilamentRecordSwitcherPlugin;

class AdminPanelProvider extends PanelProvider
{
    public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
    {
        return $panel
            // ...
            ->plugin(
                FilamentRecordSwitcherPlugin::make(),
            );
    }
}

2. Add the HasRecordSwitcher trait to each of your edit record Page. E.g app/Filament/Resources/Category/Pages/EditCategory.php

use Howdu\FilamentRecordSwitcher\Filament\Concerns\HasRecordSwitcher;

class EditCategory extends EditRecord
{
    use HasRecordSwitcher;
}

Note: this trail will overwrite the getHeading() method if you've overwritten it in your Page you need to overwrite getRecordTitle() instead.

If you want to add custom logic to the afterSave() method, you can do so by using the recordSwitcherAfterSave() method from the trait.

 use HasRecordSwitcher {
    afterSave as recordSwitcherAfterSave;
}

protected function afterSave(): void
{
    /// Custom logic

    $this->recordSwitcherAfterSave();
}

3. Check your Resource class e.g CategoryResource has the record title attribute set which's used as the label in the select dropdown.

protected static ?string $recordTitleAttribute = 'title';

4. Finally publish plugin assets.

php artisan filament:assets
