#Usage

#Bulk Action

Add the export action to your table's bulk actions to allow users to export selected records:

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentExportAction\Actions\FilamentExportBulkAction;
use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentExportAction\Enums\ExportFormat;
use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentExportAction\ValueObjects\AdditionalColumn;

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->columns([
            TextColumn::make('name'),
            TextColumn::make('email'),
        ])
        ->bulkActions([
            FilamentExportBulkAction::make('export')
                ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv, ExportFormat::Xlsx, ExportFormat::Pdf])
                ->defaultFormat(ExportFormat::Xlsx)
                ->excludeColumns(['password', 'remember_token'])
                ->additionalColumns([
                    AdditionalColumn::make('exported_at')
                        ->defaultValue(now()->format('d/m/Y')),
                ])
                ->extraViewData(['companyName' => 'Acme Corp']),
        ]);
}

#Header Action

Add the export action to your table's header actions to export all records (respecting active filters, search, and sort):

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentExportAction\Actions\FilamentExportHeaderAction;
use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentExportAction\Enums\ExportFormat;

public function table(Table $table): Table
{
    return $table
        ->columns([
            TextColumn::make('name'),
            TextColumn::make('email'),
        ])
        ->headerActions([
            FilamentExportHeaderAction::make('export')
                ->formats([ExportFormat::Csv, ExportFormat::Xlsx, ExportFormat::Pdf])
                ->defaultFormat(ExportFormat::Xlsx)
                ->withFilters()
                ->withSearch()
                ->withSort()
                ->snappy()
                ->extraViewData(['companyName' => 'Acme Corp']),
        ]);
}

#Configuration Options

#Formats

->formats([ExportFormat::Csv, ExportFormat::Xlsx, ExportFormat::Pdf])
->defaultFormat(ExportFormat::Xlsx)

#File Name

// Custom file name
->fileName('my-report')

// File name prefix (prepended to the name)
->fileNamePrefix('users')

// Disable prefix
->disableFileNamePrefix()

// Custom time format for the filename suffix
->timeFormat('d_m_Y-H_i')

// Disable file name input in the modal
->disableFileName()

// Full control via closure
->fileNameUsing(fn ($action) => 'custom-' . now()->format('Y-m-d'))

#Direct Download

Skip the modal form and download immediately with default settings:

->directDownload()

#Columns

// Use specific columns
->columns(['id', 'name', 'email'])

// Exclude columns
->excludeColumns(['password', 'remember_token'])

// Add extra Filament Column objects
->withColumns([
    TextColumn::make('full_address'),
])

// Disable the column filter checkboxes in the modal
->disableFilterColumns()

// Include hidden (toggled) columns in the export
->withHiddenColumns()

// Disable table columns entirely (use only additional columns)
->disableTableColumns()

#Additional Columns

Add extra columns with user-fillable inputs in the export modal:

->additionalColumns([
    AdditionalColumn::make('exported_at')
        ->label('Exported At')
        ->defaultValue(now()->format('d/m/Y')),
    AdditionalColumn::make('notes')
        ->label('Notes')
        ->defaultValue('N/A'),
])

// Disable additional columns
->disableAdditionalColumns()

#Format States

Custom formatting for column values:

->formatStates([
    'name' => fn ($value, $record) => strtoupper($value),
    'created_at' => fn ($value) => Carbon::parse($value)->format('d/m/Y'),
    'status' => fn ($value) => match ($value) {
        'active' => 'Active',
        'inactive' => 'Inactive',
        default => $value,
    },
])

#CSV Delimiter

->csvDelimiter(';')  // Default: ','

#PDF Driver

By default, the package uses barryvdh/laravel-dompdf. You can switch to barryvdh/laravel-snappy:

composer require barryvdh/laravel-snappy

// Use Snappy
->snappy()

// Or set driver explicitly
->pdfDriver('snappy')

// Custom PDF options
->pdfOptions(['paper' => 'a4', 'orientation' => 'landscape'])

#Page Orientation

// Set default page orientation for PDF export
->defaultPageOrientation('landscape')  // Default: 'portrait'

#Preview & Print

// Disable preview in the modal
->disablePreview()

// Disable print button
->disablePrint()

#Writer Callbacks

Customize the Excel or PDF writer before the file is generated:

// Modify the SimpleExcelWriter (CSV/XLSX)
->modifyExcelWriter(fn (SimpleExcelWriter $writer) => $writer)

// Modify the PDF instance (DomPDF or Snappy)
->modifyPdfWriter(fn ($pdf) => $pdf->setWarnings(false))

#Extra View Data

Pass additional data to the PDF/print Blade templates:

// Static array
->extraViewData(['companyName' => 'Acme Corp'])

// Dynamic closure
->extraViewData(fn ($action) => [
    'recordCount' => $action->getRecords()->count(),
])

#Header Action Specific Options

// Apply active table filters to export
->withFilters()

// Apply active search to export
->withSearch()

// Apply active sort to export
->withSort()

// Modify the query before export
->modifyQueryUsing(fn ($query) => $query->where('active', true))

// Multiple query modifications (they stack)
->modifyQueryUsing(fn ($query) => $query->where('active', true))
->modifyQueryUsing(fn ($query) => $query->where('role', 'admin'))

All options can be set globally via the config file:
