Allow TextColumn descriptions to be rendered as html

[dreftas]

It would be nice to have possibility to allow TextColumn descriptions to be rendered as HTML.

I'm pretty sure you can just do that.

TextColumn::make('name')
  ->description(fn () => new HtmlString('<span class="text-red-500">hi</span>'))

No, we can't.
Blade view for text column does not parse HTML tags. You can see in text-column.blade.php
Here
and
Here

There is no control whether output using {!! !!}, or {{ }} so it just shows HTML tags.

Mhh. Maybe i misunderstood but:

 Tables\Columns\TextColumn::make('id')
      ->description(function () {
          return view('test');
      })
      ->label('ID')
      ->searchable(),

<!-- test.blade.php -->
<div class="flex flex-col gap-x-2 prose w-full">
    <div>hi?
        <x-filament::icon icon="heroicon-o-user" class="w-4 h-4"/>
    </div>
    <div>
        <h1>hi</h1>
    </div>
    <div>
        <h2>hi</h2>
    </div>
</div>

Gives me:

Heh.. Everything ok, my mistake...
I've been using like this:
->description(fn (MyModel $record) => $record->myHtmlString)

and in model:
public function getMyHtmlStringAttribute(): string { return new HtmlString('test<br>test'); }

And it printed out test<br>test in description, and this was all because my getMyHtmlStringAttribute() return type was declared as string, so I believe returned HtmlString() were converted back to string.

Anyway, declaring return type as HtmlString worked. :)

->getStateUsing(function ($record) { return strip_tags($record->body); })
