A placeholder field to just show some content on forms without any logic.

This package adds a Placeholder field which you can use in Laravel Nova. It only outputs some HTML in the forms of your resource. This is not a field to store any data — it just displays some stuff.

[![Nova Placeholder field example](resources/img/example-nova-placeholder-field.png)](resources/img/example-nova-placeholder-field.png)

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

[](#installation)

Install the package via Composer:

```
composer require marshmallow/nova-placeholder
```

The service provider is auto-discovered, so there is nothing else to register.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add the field to a Nova resource and pass the HTML you want to output to the `content()` method. That's it!

```
use Marshmallow\Placeholder\Placeholder;

Placeholder::make(__('Planning'))
    ->content('This lead is planned to be completed on august 1. This will be done by John Doe.Click here to view the full construction planning.'),
```

You can also render a Blade view instead of an inline string with the `view()` method. The first argument is the view name and the second is the data passed to it:

```
use Marshmallow\Placeholder\Placeholder;

Placeholder::make(__('Planning'))
    ->view('components.planning', [
        'lead' => $lead,
    ]),
```

The field never writes to the underlying model, so it is safe to use on create and update forms purely for display.
