A powerful resource picker for Filament.

Adds a new ResourcePicker form component that lets users browse and select models using your existing resources in modal.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require unexpectedjourney/filament-modal-resource-picker

Usage

Add the plugin to your panel provider

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\FilamentResourcePickerPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        ->plugins([
            FilamentResourcePickerPlugin::make(),
        ])
    ])
}

Then add the component to your form

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Forms\Components\ResourcePicker;

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            ResourcePicker::make('component_id')
                ->resource(ProductResource::class),
        ]);
}

This adds a button to your form that when clicked opens a modal with the table from the resource specified in the resource() method. All columns and filters will be available while all Actions are removed.

Just click a record to select it and click it again to deselect it. When a record is selected it will show up in the right hand sidebar. You may deselect a record in this sidebar by hovering your mouse over it and clicking the trash icon that appears.

Once you've selected the record (or records in the case of a multiple select) click the update and close. The modal will close and you will see the selected records reflected in your form. You may remove a record from the selection by hovering your mouse over it and clicking the trash icon that appears.

Selecting multiple records (and sorting)

To select multiple records use the multiple() method.

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Forms\Components\ResourcePicker;

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            ResourcePicker::make('component_id')
                ->resource(ProductResource::class)
                ->multiple(),
        ]);
}

If you would like the selected records to be sortable than call the sortable() method.

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Forms\Components\ResourcePicker;

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            ResourcePicker::make('component_id')
                ->resource(ProductResource::class)
                ->multiple()
                ->sortable(),
        ]);
}

Integrating with an Eloquent relationship

You may employ the relationship() method of the ResourcePicker to configure a HasMany relationship. The ResourcePicker will load the item data from the relationship, and save it back to the relationship when the form is submitted. If a custom relationship name is not passed to relationship(), the field name will be used as the relationship name:

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Forms\Components\ResourcePicker;

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            ResourcePicker::make('cross_sell_products')
                ->resource(ProductResource::class)
                ->relationship()
                ->multiple(),
        ]);
}

Sorting items in a relationship

By default, reordering relationship items is disabled. This is because your related model needs a sort column to store the order of related records. To enable sorting, you may use the orderColumn() method, passing in a name of the column on your related model to store the order in:

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Forms\Components\ResourcePicker;

public static function form(Form $form): Form
{
    return $form
        ->schema([
            ResourcePicker::make('cross_sell_products')
                ->resource(ProductResource::class)
                ->relationship()
                ->multiple()
                ->orderColumn('sort')
        ]);
}

Searching selected records

When selecting multiple records you can search the selected records using the text input above the selected records on the right hand side of the ResourcePicker modal. By default, this filter will use search the recordTitleAttribute configured on the resource. You can configure the columns used in this filter on a resource by resource basis by configuring your resource pickers.

Configuring your resource pickers

Inside the boot method of a service provider call ResourcePickerManager::configure() and pass a key value array. The key is the class name of the resource you want to configure and the value is a closure that receives a ResourcePickerConfiguration argument named $configuration.

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Facades\ResourcePickerManager;

public function boot(): void
{
    ResourcePickerManager::configure([
        ProductResource::class => fn(ResourcePickerConfiguration $configuration) => $configuration,
    ]);
}

Configuring fields used for searching results

Use the searchColumns method of the ResourcePickerConfiguration to pass an array of columns that should be used when searching through the results in the ResourcePicker modal.

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Facades\ResourcePickerManager;

public function boot(): void
{
    ResourcePickerManager::configure([
        ProductResource::class => fn(ResourcePickerConfiguration $configuration) => $configuration
            ->searchColumns([
                'name',
                'part_number',
                'vendor.name',
            ]),
    ]);
}

Configuring the selected record previews

The ResourcePicker displays the record title configured on your Filament resource by default. Use the previewComponent() method on the ResourcePickerConfiguration and pass it the name of a Blade component to be used to display the preview.

use UnexpectedJourney\FilamentResourcePicker\Facades\ResourcePickerManager;

public function boot(): void
{
    ResourcePickerManager::configure([
        ProductResource::class => fn(ResourcePickerConfiguration $configuration) => $configuration
            ->previewComponent('products.card.mini')
    ]);
}

Your Blade component can access the selected record by adding a record property as documented https://laravel.com/docs/10.x/blade#data-properties-attributes.
