This package is an enhanced version of the original [nikans/text-linked](https://github.com/nikans/text-linked) field with additional features:

- open links in new tabs / targets
- trim functionality with nova tooltip support

**NB:** The field is compatible to the original one, if you plan to change to this package you only have to update the imports.

Nova custom Text Field with a link to a resource (or any URL) on index screen.

Nova links ID fields to a resource by default. The custom field is useful if you're using a [text ID field](https://github.com/laravel/nova-issues/issues/268)or want to **link a resource's title**, as shown below.

[![Nova TextLinked Field Example](https://github.com/lednerb/nova-text-linked-field/raw/master/nova-text-linked-field-example.png "Nova TextLinked Field Example")](https://github.com/lednerb/nova-text-linked-field/blob/master/nova-text-linked-field-example.png)

The field behaves just like the default text field on detail and form screens.

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

[](#installation)

```
composer require lednerb/nova-text-linked-field
```

Usage options
-------------

[](#usage-options)

### Automatically link a resource to a title or text ID field

[](#automatically-link-a-resource-to-a-title-or-text-id-field)

```
use Lednerb\TextLinked\TextLinked;

...

TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this),

TextLinked::make('ID')
    ->link($this),
```

### Link a resource by `uriKey` and `id`

[](#link-a-resource-by-urikey-and-id)

```
TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->linkResource($this->uriKey(), $this->id),
```

### Add a random URL

[](#add-a-random-url)

```
TextLinked::make('ID')
    ->url("https://novapackages.com"),
```

### Open the link in a new tab or target

[](#open-the-link-in-a-new-tab-or-target)

```
TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this)
    ->openInNewTab(),

TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this)
    ->openInNewTab('myTarget'),
```

### Trim long values to a specific amount of chars

[](#trim-long-values-to-a-specific-amount-of-chars)

[![Nova TextLinked Field Trim Functionality](https://github.com/lednerb/nova-text-linked-field/raw/master/tooltip-preview.png "Tooltip Preview")](https://github.com/lednerb/nova-text-linked-field/blob/master/tooltip-preview.png)

```
TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this)
    ->trim(), // Default are 50 chars

TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this)
    ->trim(60),
```

By default a tooltip will be shown on hover state with the full untrimed value. If you don't want the tooltip, you can disable it as follows:

```
TextLinked::make('Title', 'title')
    ->link($this)
    ->trim()
    ->hideTooltip(),
```
