Nova Action Button

Latest Version on Packagist Licence Total Downloads

This package allows you to execute an action directly on your resource table view.

Installation

composer require pdmfc/nova-action-button

Usage

use App\Nova\Actions\ChangeRole;
use Pdmfc\NovaFields\ActionButton;

//...

public function fields()
{
    return [
        ActionButton::make('Action')
            ->action(ChangeRole::class, $this->id)
            //->action(new ChangeRole(), $this->id) using a new instance
    ];
}

The action() method requires two params - the action class name or a new instance, and the target resource id.

Basic example

Disabling button

You can use the native Laravel nova readonly() method to prevent users from clicking the button:

ActionButton::make('Action')
    ->action(ChangeRole::class, $this->id)
    ->readonly(function () {
        return $this->role->name === 'admin';
    })

Disabling the button

Change the button text

To edit the button text content, use the text() method.

->text('Execute')

Caveats

  • Currently, in order to use this field, you still have to declare the action in your resource actions() method.
