A Toggle Icon Column for Filament

While developing Advanced Tables (formerly Filter Sets), a premium Filament plugin that lets you save your existing filters into one easily accessible filter set, I needed a toggleable icon column to give users an easy way to see the status of their filter sets and interact with them as well. Out of this, Toggle Icon Column was born.

Toggle Icon Column is a mashup of Filament's interactive Toggle Column and the Icon Column allowing an icon to be toggled on or off in a table, with different icons and colors representing it's different states.

It should be noted that Filament's current Toggle Column is a more obvious and intuitive UX for most people and even supports icons in the toggle button. However, for some, like myself, Toggle Icon Column will give you a great way to add some visual distinction to your tables.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require gigcodes/filament-toggle-icon-column

Optionally, you can publish the views using

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filament-toggle-icon-column-views"

Filament v3 recommends developers create a custom theme to better support a plugin's additional Tailwind classes. After you have created your custom theme, add Toggle Icon Columns' views to your new theme's tailwind.config.js file usually located in resources/css/filament/admin/tailwind.config.js:

content: [
    ...
    './vendor/gigcodes/filament-toggle-icon-column/**/*.php',
],

Next, compile your theme:

npm run build

Finally, run the Filament upgrade command:

php artisan filament:upgrade

Usage

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;

return $table
    ->columns([
        ToggleIconColumn::make('is_active'),
    ]);

Customizing the icon

You may customize the icon representing each state. Heroicons v2 are supported at this time:

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_locked')
    ->onIcon('heroicon-s-lock-open')
    ->offIcon('heroicon-o-lock-closed')

Customizing the size

The default icon size is lg, but you may customize the size to be either xs, sm, md, lg or xl:

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_locked')
    ->size('xl')

Customizing the color

You may customize the icon color representing the on or off state. These may be either primary, secondary, success, info, warning, danger, or secondary:

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_locked')
    ->onColor('primary')
    ->offColor('secondary')

Customizing the hover color

By default the hover color will be the inverse of the on/off colors. These may also be customized to be either primary, secondary, success, info, warning, danger, or secondary.

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_locked')
    ->hoverColor('success')

For further customization you can call a Closure.

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_locked')
    ->hoverColor(fn (Model $record) => $record->is_locked ? 'text-gray-300' : 'text-success-500'),

Other options

As ToggleIconColumn extends Filament's Column class, most other methods are available as well such as:

use Gigcodes\ToggleIconColumn\Columns\ToggleIconColumn;
 
ToggleIconColumn::make('is_bookmarked')
    ->label('Bookmark status')
    ->translateLabel()
    ->alignCenter()
    ->disabled(fn () => ! auth()->user()->isAdmin())
    ->tooltip(fn (Model $record) => $record->is_bookmarked ? 'Unbookmark' : 'Bookmark')
    ->sortable()
