A Laravel Nova field to run actions.

#Nova Action Button

This package allows you to execute an action directly on your resource table view.

#Installation

composer require pdmfc/nova-action-button

#Usage

use App\Nova\Actions\ChangeRole;
use Pdmfc\NovaFields\ActionButton;
 
//...
 
public function fields()
{
    return [
        ActionButton::make('Action')
            ->action(ChangeRole::class, $this->id)
            //->action(new ChangeRole(), $this->id) using a new instance
    ];
}

The action() method requires two params - the action class name or a new instance, and the target resource id.

#

#Disabling button

You can use the native Laravel nova readonly() method to prevent users from clicking the button:

ActionButton::make('Action')
    ->action(ChangeRole::class, $this->id)
    ->readonly(function () {
        return $this->role->name === 'admin';
    })

#Change the button text

To edit the button text content, use the text() method.

->text('Execute')

#Enable the loading animation on button and change color

To enable the loading animation on button and change color, use showLoadingAnimation() and loadingColor('#fff') method.

->showLoadingAnimation()
->loadingColor('#fff') # default is #000

#Add a svg to the button

In order to add a svg to the button, you first need to create a vue component containing a svg and then pass the component name to the svg() method.

->svg('VueComponentName')

#Change button color

To change button color, use buttonColor('#21b970') method.

->buttonColor('#21b970') # default is .btn-primary color

#Caveats

• Currently, in order to use this field, you still have to declare the action in your resource actions() method.
