#Installation

1. Install the package

composer require alperenersoy/filament-export

#Configuring for Standalone Table Builder (Experimental)

To use this package in a standalone table builder instead of Filament Admin Panel you need to follow these steps. Otherwise, some features such as print and preview may not work properly.

1. Import filament-export.css in your /resources/app.css

@import '../../vendor/alperenersoy/filament-export/resources/css/filament-export.css';

2. Import filament-export.js in your /resources/app.js

import '../../vendor/alperenersoy/filament-export/resources/js/filament-export.js';

3. Compile your assets

npm run dev

#Using

#Simple Usage

#Bulk Action

You can export selected rows with the bulk action.

Filament Admin Panel

$table->bulkActions([
    ...
    FilamentExportBulkAction::make('export')
    ...
]);

Filament Table Builder

protected function getTableBulkActions(): array
{
    return [
        ...
        FilamentExportBulkAction::make('Export'),
        ...
    ];
}

#Header Action

You can filter, search, sort and export your table with the header action.

Filament Admin Panel

$table->headerActions([
    ...
    FilamentExportHeaderAction::make('export')
    ...
]);

Filament Table Builder

protected function getTableHeaderActions(): array
{
    return [
        ...
        FilamentExportHeaderAction::make('Export'),
        ...
    ];
}

Since ButtonAction is deprecated you may use this action with ->button() instead.

#Full Usage

Both actions provide functions for configuration.

FilamentExportBulkAction::make('export')
    ->fileName('My File') // Default file name
    ->timeFormat('m y d') // Default time format for naming exports
    ->disablePdf() // Disable PDF format for download
    ->disableXlsx() // Disable XLSX format for download
    ->disableCsv() // Disable CSV format for download
    ->defaultFormat('pdf') // xlsx, csv or pdf
    ->defaultPageOrientation('landscape') // Page orientation for pdf files. portrait or landscape
    ->directDownload() // Download directly without showing modal
    ->disableAdditionalColumns() // Disable additional columns input
    ->disableFilterColumns() // Disable filter columns input
    ->disableFileName() // Disable file name input
    ->disableFileNamePrefix() // Disable file name prefix
    ->disablePreview() // Disable export preview
    ->disableTableColumns() // Disable table columns in the export
    ->withHiddenColumns() //Show the columns which are toggled hidden
    ->fileNameFieldLabel('File Name') // Label for file name input
    ->formatFieldLabel('Format') // Label for format input
    ->pageOrientationFieldLabel('Page Orientation') // Label for page orientation input
    ->filterColumnsFieldLabel('filter columns') // Label for filter columns input
    ->additionalColumnsFieldLabel('Additional Columns') // Label for additional columns input
    ->additionalColumnsTitleFieldLabel('Title') // Label for additional columns' title input 
    ->additionalColumnsDefaultValueFieldLabel('Default Value') // Label for additional columns' default value input 
    ->additionalColumnsAddButtonLabel('Add Column') // Label for additional columns' add button 
    ->withColumns([TextColumn::make('additionalModelColumn')]) // Export additional model columns that aren't visible in the table results
    ->csvDelimiter(',') // Delimiter for csv files
    ->modifyExcelWriter(fn (SimpleExcelWriter $writer) => $writer->nameCurrentSheet('Sheet')) // Modify SimpleExcelWriter before download
    ->modifyPdfWriter(fn (\Barryvdh\DomPDF\PDF|\Barryvdh\Snappy\PdfWrapper $writer) => $writer->setPaper('a4', 'landscape')) // Modify DomPdf or Snappy writer before download
    ->formatStates([
        'name' => fn (?Model $record) => strtoupper($record->name),
    ]) // Manually format states for a specific column

You can also use default bulk action and header action functions to customize actions.

#Performance Tips for Large Datasets

• Since header action does server-side pagination you may choose header action over bulk action.
• You may disable preview.
• You may enable direct download.

#Configuration

Publish configuration

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="AlperenErsoy\FilamentExport\FilamentExportServiceProvider" --tag="config"

You can configure these settings:

return [
    'default_format' => 'xlsx',
    'time_format' => 'M_d_Y-H_i',
    'default_page_orientation' => 'portrait',
    'disable_additional_columns' => false,
    'disable_filter_columns' => false,
    'disable_file_name' => false,
    'disable_preview' => false,
    'use_snappy' => false,
    'action_icon' => 'heroicon-o-document-download',
    'preview_icon' => 'heroicon-o-eye',
    'export_icon' => 'heroicon-o-download',
    'print_icon' => 'heroicon-o-printer',
    'cancel_icon' => 'heroicon-o-x-circle'
];

#Overriding Views

Publish views

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="AlperenErsoy\FilamentExport\FilamentExportServiceProvider" --tag="views"

This package has two views:

1. "components\table_view.blade.php" view is used for preview.

2. "pdf.blade.php" view is used as pdf export template.

3. "print.blade.php" view is used as print template.

#Using Custom Variables In Templates

FilamentExportBulkAction::make('export')
    ->extraViewData([
        'myVariable' => 'My Variable'
    ])

or use closures

FilamentExportHeaderAction::make('export')
    ->extraViewData(fn ($action) => [
        'recordCount' => $action->getRecords()->count()
    ])

Then use them in the templates as regular blade variables:

{{ $myVariable }}

#Using Snappy

By default, this package uses dompdf as pdf generator.

If you want to use Snappy instead you need to install barryvdh/laravel-snappy to your project and configure it yourself. (See barryvdh/laravel-snappy for more information.)

To use snappy for PDF exports:

1. You can simply add ->snappy() to your actions.

FilamentExportBulkAction::make('export')
    ->snappy()

or

FilamentExportHeaderAction::make('export')
    ->snappy()

2. You can update the config file to use it as default.

[
    ...
    'use_snappy' => true,
    ...
