ModelResource

Fields

Basics

Fields usually refer to database table fields. Within the CRUD, they will be displayed on the main page of the section (resource) with the list and on the page for creating and editing records. In the MoonShine admin panel, there are many types of fields that cover all possible requirements! They also encompass all possible relationships in Laravel and are conveniently named after the relationship methods BelongsTo, BelongsToMany, HasOne, HasMany, HasOneThrough, HasManyThrough, MorphOne, MorphMany.

Adding fields to ModelResource is very simple!

You can use methods that allow you to declare fields for the corresponding pages: indexFields(), formFields(), or detailFields().

namespace App\MoonShine\Resources;
 
use App\Models\Post;
use MoonShine\UI\Fields\ID;
use MoonShine\UI\Fields\Text;
use MoonShine\Laravel\Resources\ModelResource;
 
class PostResource extends ModelResource
{
    protected string $model = Post::class;
 
    protected string $title = 'Posts';
 
    //...
 
    protected function indexFields(): iterable
    {
        return [
            ID::make(),
            Text::make('Title'),
        ];
    }
 
    protected function formFields(): iterable
    {
        return [
            ID::make(),
            Text::make('Title'),
            Text::make('Subtitle'),
        ];
    }
 
    protected function detailFields(): iterable
    {
        return [
            Text::make('Title', 'title'),
            Text::make('Subtitle'),
        ];
    }
 
    //...
}
