Documentation

[](#documentation)

Simply add the `notes` MorphMany relationship to your model and add a field with a type of `notes` to your fields.yaml to get started.

Example `fields.yaml`:

```
fields:
    name:
        label: Name
        span: full

tabs:
    fields:
        notes: # The name of the relationship the FormWidget will use
            label: ''
            tab: Notes
            type: notes
            span: full
            # autosaveDelay: 2000 # The amount of milliseconds to delay after typing stops to trigger an autosave
            # dateFormat: 'Y-m-d H:i:s' # the php date format for updated_at column
```

Example MorphMany Relationship definition:

```
public $morphMany = [
    'notes' => [\Captive\Notes\Models\Note::class, 'name' => 'target']
];
```
