Import data to your Laravel Nova models. You can use jobs if you're expecting large files.

[ See it in action in a GIF ](https://marshmallow.dev/cdn/readme/package-nova-data-importer/marshmallow-small.gif)Installation
------------

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require marshmallow/nova-data-importer
```

The importer needs to have a table to store some data so please run a migration.

```
php artisan migrate
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In `app/Providers/NovaServiceProvider.php` you need to add the Import tool.

```
public function tools()
{
    return [
        ...
        new \Marshmallow\NovaDataImporter\NovaDataImporter,
    ];
}

```

Set up queues (optional)
------------------------

[](#set-up-queues-optional)

First, we need to make sure you are able to run queues. If you are already running queues you don't have to change your current behaviour.

Prepare your application to handle queues from the database. Skip this if you already have queues set up.

```
php artisan queue:table
php artisan migrate
```

Update your `.env` file first:

```
QUEUE_CONNECTION=database

BROADCAST_DRIVER=pusher

PUSHER_APP_ID=XXX
PUSHER_APP_KEY=XXX
PUSHER_APP_SECRET=XXX
PUSHER_APP_CLUSTER=eu
```

Last; Inside your `config/app.php` uncomment the line below if it is still commented.

```
[
   'providers' => [

        /*
         * Laravel Framework Service Providers...
         */
        Illuminate\Broadcasting\BroadcastServiceProvider::class,
    ],
]
```

Start your worker and you're good to go!

```
php artisan queue:work --queue=default
```

Options
-------

[](#options)

If you want to override some of the default options, you need to publish the config file with `php artisan vendor:publish`.
