BelongsTo field with dependency support for Nova
================================================

[](#belongsto-field-with-dependency-support-for-nova)

This package is an extension of Laravel Nova's existing BelongsTo field and Vue components.

Originally created by manmohanjit, the original package was abandoned. Then followed by webparking/nova-belongs-to-dependency, but I corrected some issues with large recordsets and addedd support for searchable fields.

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

[](#installation)

You can install this package on a Laravel app that uses [Nova](https://nova.laravel.com) via composer:

```
composer require scops/nova-belongs-to-dependency
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The following will list categories with `type_id` equal to the value set in the first BelongsTo field.

```
use Scops\BelongsToDependency\BelongsToDependency;
...
return [
    ...
    BelongsTo::make('Type'),

    BelongsToDependency::make('User')
        ->dependsOn('type', 'type_id'),
    ...
];
```

Look at the [example](#example) below for other use cases.

Example
-------

[](#example)

Database Structure

- Type (id, name)
- Posts (id, type\_id, category\_id, title, body)
- Category (id, type\_id, title)

We should only be able to assign categories to posts that belong to the same type.

This is how you would achieve it on the Nova category resource:

```
use Scops\BelongsToDependency\BelongsToDependency;
...
return [
    ...
    BelongsTo::make('Type'),

    BelongsToDependency::make('User')
        ->dependsOn('type', 'type_id'),
    ...
];
```

This would work if you used a text/enum `type` field too.

```
use Scops\BelongsToDependency\BelongsToDependency;
...
return [
    ...
    Select::make('Type')->options([
        'post' => 'Post',
        'page' => 'Page',
    ])>displayUsingLabels(),

    BelongsToDependency::make('User')
        ->dependsOn('type', 'type'),
    ...
];
```
