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.

#Documentation
The full documentation is available at guava.cz.
#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.
