nexus-cms/laravel
=================

[](#nexus-cmslaravel)

Headless Laravel content store for [Nexus CMS](https://nexus.mkiteg.com).

It is the **content store**, the **REST API** the Next.js client talks to, the **edit-mode token mint**, and it manages **versions** and **force-update**.

> Visual editing happens in the in-context overlay on the frontend. This package has **no Filament dependency** — drop it into any Laravel app and wire your own auth for token minting.

Docs:
Frontend packages: `npm install nexus-cms`

> **Migration:** `nexus-cms/filament` is deprecated. Use `nexus-cms/laravel`.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require nexus-cms/laravel
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="nexus-cms-migrations"
php artisan migrate
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="nexus-cms-config"
```

The service provider auto-registers. Import the schema produced by `nexus generate`:

```
php artisan nexus:import-schema .nexus/cms-schema.json
```

REST API
--------

[](#rest-api)

Mounted at `config('nexus-cms.route_prefix')` (default `api/nexus`):

MethodPathAuthPurposeGET`/schema`publicThe cms-schema.jsonGET`/content/{page}`public (published) / token (draft)Content documentPOST`/tokens`host-app auth (`token_middleware`)Mint edit-mode token (+ optional redirect)PUT`/content/{page}/override`Nexus tokenSave one region overrideDELETE`/content/{page}/override`Nexus tokenRevert one region (`?regionId=`)PUT`/content/{page}/overrides`Nexus tokenReplace full override mapPUT`/content/{page}/seo`Nexus tokenSave draft SEOPOST`/content/{page}/publish`Nexus tokenPublish draft, create version, force-updateGET`/content/{page}/versions`publicVersion historyGET`/content/{page}/versions/{id}`publicA version snapshotPOST`/content/{page}/versions/{id}/restore`Nexus tokenRoll back (`?publish=0` = draft only)POST`/media`Nexus tokenUpload an imageGET`/media`publicMedia library`{page}` is the encoded route: `/` → `_root`, `/a/b` → `a~b` (matches the Next.js client).

### Mint an edit token

[](#mint-an-edit-token)

```
curl -X POST "$API/api/nexus/tokens" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SANCTUM_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"page":"/"}'
```

Response:

```
{
  "token": "…",
  "editUrl": "https://yoursite.com/api/nexus/edit?token=…&to=/",
  "expiresAt": "…",
  "page": "/"
}
```

Pass `"redirect": true` to redirect the browser into `editUrl` instead of JSON. Configure mint auth with `NEXUS_TOKEN_MIDDLEWARE` (default `auth:sanctum`).

Handshake + force update
------------------------

[](#handshake--force-update)

- **Open editor** — your admin calls `POST /tokens`, then sends the user to `editUrl`(or opens it). The Next app exchanges the Nexus token with `createHttpAdapter`.
- **Publish / Force update** — POSTs to `FRONTEND_URL/api/nexus/revalidate` with the webhook secret so the page is revalidated instantly.

Key env
-------

[](#key-env)

```
NEXUS_FRONTEND_URL=https://yoursite.com
NEXUS_WEBHOOK_SECRET=change-me
NEXUS_SCHEMA_PATH=/path/to/.nexus/cms-schema.json
NEXUS_MEDIA_DISK=public
NEXUS_TOKEN_MIDDLEWARE=auth:sanctum
```

Development
-----------

[](#development)

```
composer install
./vendor/bin/phpunit
```
