Latest Version on Packagist Total Downloads

This plugin adds a markdown powered knowledge base to your filament app. You write markdown files, and the package turns them into a fully navigable documentation panel with a sidebar, breadcrumbs, a table of contents and global search.

A companion plugin integrates the knowledge base into your regular panels: a help menu on your resources and pages, documentation previews in modals and a link to the knowledge base in the sidebar.

Showcase

#Documentation

#Version compatibility

Filament version Plugin version
3.x 1.x
4.x 2.x
5.x 3.x

For older filament versions, please check the branch of the respective version.

#Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require guava/filament-knowledge-base

Next, install @tailwindcss/typography if you don't have it already, since we use prose to style the markdown output:

npm install -D @tailwindcss/typography

Then publish the package assets:

php artisan filament:assets

Finally, make sure you have a custom filament theme (read here how to create one) and add the following to your theme.css file so the CSS is properly built:

@plugin "@tailwindcss/typography";
@source '../../../../vendor/guava/filament-knowledge-base/src/**/*';
@source '../../../../vendor/guava/filament-knowledge-base/resources/views/**/*';

For the remaining setup steps, please see the installation docs.

#Usage

The knowledge base needs its own panel. Register the KnowledgeBasePlugin on it:

use Guava\FilamentKnowledgeBase\Plugins\KnowledgeBasePlugin;

$panel->plugin(KnowledgeBasePlugin::make());

And the KnowledgeBaseCompanionPlugin on your regular panel(s):

use Guava\FilamentKnowledgeBase\Plugins\KnowledgeBaseCompanionPlugin;

$panel->plugin(KnowledgeBaseCompanionPlugin::make()
    ->knowledgeBasePanelId('knowledge-base')
);

Then create your first documentation page:

php artisan docs:make

Everything else, including the markdown features, modal previews, help menus and help actions, is covered in the documentation.
