Laravel Nova Enum Field
=======================

[](#laravel-nova-enum-field)

Nova field for enums in PHP 8.1 and above (both pure `Enum` and `BackedEnum`) with [datomatic/enum-helper](https://github.com/datomatic/enum-helper) and [datomatic/laravel-enum-helper](https://github.com/datomatic/laravel-enum-helper) compatibility.

[![Select field on form](branding/select-field.png)](branding/select-field.png)

There is also a Nova Select filter and Nova Boolean filter: [![Select filter](branding/select-filter.png)](branding/select-filter.png)[![Boolean filter](branding/boolean-filter.png)](branding/boolean-filter.png)

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install this package in a Laravel app that uses [Nova](https://nova.laravel.com) via composer:

```
composer require datomatic/nova-enum-field
```

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

```
use App\Enums\UserType;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Example extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'user_type' => UserType::class,
    ];
}
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

You can use the `Enum` field in your Nova resource like this:

```
namespace App\Nova;

use App\Enums\UserType;
use Datomatic\Nova\Fields\Enum\Enum;

class Example extends Resource
{
    // ...

    public function fields(Request $request)
    {
        return [
            // ...

            Enum::make('User Type','user_type')->attach(UserType::class),

            // ...
        ];
    }
}
```

Be aware that order in which methods on the field are called can be sigificant. For example `nullable()` must be called before *before* `attach()`, and `options()` must be called *after* `attach()`.

If you use [datomatic/laravel-enum-helper](https://github.com/datomatic/laravel-enum-helper) you can set optionally a custom dynamic property or/and a subset of cases.
The default property is `description`.

```
Enum::make('User Type','user_type')
    ->nullable()
    ->property('excerpt')
    ->cases([UserType::ADMINISTRATOR,UserType::MODERATOR])
    ->attach(UserType::class),
```

### Filters

[](#filters)

If you would like to use the provided Nova Select filter, you can include it like this:

```
namespace App\Nova;

use App\Enums\UserPermissions;
use App\Enums\UserType;
use Datomatic\Nova\Fields\Enum\EnumFilter;

class Example extends Resource
{
    // ...

    public function filters(Request $request)
    {
        return [
            EnumFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class),

             // With optional name and default value:
            EnumFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class)
                ->name(__('User Type'))
                ->default(UserType::ADMINISTRATOR)
        ];
    }
}
```

Alternatively, you may wish to use the provided Nova Boolean filter:

```
namespace App\Nova;

use App\Enums\UserPermissions;
use App\Enums\UserType;
use Datomatic\Nova\Fields\Enum\EnumBooleanFilter;

class Example extends Resource
{
    // ...

    public function filters(Request $request)
    {
        return [
            EnumBooleanFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class),

            // With optional name and default value:
            EnumBooleanFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class)
                ->name(__('User Type'))
                ->default([UserType::ADMINISTRATOR, UserType::MODERATOR])
        ];
    }
}
```

If you use [datomatic/laravel-enum-helper](https://github.com/datomatic/laravel-enum-helper) you can set optionally a custom dynamic property or/and a subset of cases.
The default property is `description`.

```
// Enum filter
EnumFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class)
    ->name('User Type')
    ->property('excerpt')
    ->cases([UserType::ADMINISTRATOR,UserType::MODERATOR])
// Boolean Enum filter
EnumBooleanFilter::make('user_type', UserType::class)
    ->name('User Type')
    ->property('excerpt')
    ->cases([UserType::ADMINISTRATOR,UserType::MODERATOR])
```
