Nova Validation Toast
=====================

[](#nova-validation-toast)

Enhanced validation toast messages for Laravel Nova with deduplication and improved error handling.

🚨 The Problem
-------------

[](#-the-problem)

By default, Laravel Nova shows only a generic **"There was a problem submitting the form"** toast message when validation fails. The actual validation error messages are only visible in the browser console, making it difficult for users to understand what went wrong.

✅ The Solution
--------------

[](#-the-solution)

This package intercepts Nova's error handling and displays the actual error messages directly in toast notifications. Now users can see specific validation errors like "Database operation failed" or field-specific validation messages right in the UI, without the second generic toast message.

### Before (Standard Nova Behavior)

*Generic error message that doesn't help users understand what went wrong*

### Problem (Without Package)

*Users see both generic and specific messages, creating confusion*

### After (With Nova Validation Toast)

*Clean, specific error messages that help users understand and fix validation errors*

✨ Features
----------

[](#-features)

- **🎯 Replaces Generic Messages**: Shows actual validation errors instead of "There was a problem submitting the form"
- **🚫 Error Deduplication**: Prevents duplicate toast messages within a 2-second window
- **📱 Console to Toast**: Moves validation errors from browser console to user-visible toasts
- **📋 JsonResponse Support**: Displays error messages from JSON responses
- **1️⃣ Single Toast Display**: Shows only one toast per error, preventing message spam
- **🔧 Server Error Handling**: Automatically extracts and displays server validation errors
- **🌐 Axios Interceptors**: Hooks into Nova's requests to catch and display errors
- **⚙️ Configurable**: Easy to extend with additional error patterns
- **✅ Laravel 10, 11 & 12 Compatible**: Works with Laravel 10.x, 11.x, and 12.x
- **✅ Nova 4 & 5 Compatible**: Works with both Nova 4.x and 5.x

📦 Installation
--------------

[](#-installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require dmkulyk/nova-validation-toast
```

The package will automatically register its service provider.

🚀 Usage
-------

[](#-usage)

The component automatically activates when Nova boots and enhances the default error handling behavior. No additional configuration is required.

### Customization

[](#customization)

If you need to customize the error patterns or behavior, you can publish the JavaScript assets:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=nova-validation-toast-assets
```

Then modify the published JavaScript file in `public/vendor/nova-validation-toast/` to suit your needs.

⚙️ Configuration
----------------

[](#️-configuration)

You can modify the `KNOWN_ERRORS` object in the JavaScript to add more error patterns that should be suppressed or handled differently:

```
const KNOWN_ERRORS = {
    formSubmit: 'there was a problem submitting the form',
    // Add more known error strings here as needed
};
```

🔧 How it Works
--------------

[](#-how-it-works)

The component:

1. **Intercepts** Nova's error handling system
2. **Deduplicates** error messages to prevent spam
3. **Extracts** validation errors from server responses
4. **Displays** clean, user-friendly toast notifications
5. **Hooks** into both Nova's request system and global axios interceptors
