The Encore Digital Group Filament Helpers package is a collection of pre-built Filament components that we find ourselves frequently using. Rather than constantly rebuilding the same component across multiple resources and projects, we centralized these common configurations into a single shared package. Each helper class method returns a pre-configured Filament component that can be used in your resource classes. Because the helper classes return a Filament component, you can chain additional method calls to further configure the component as needed.

#Installation

To install the Filament Helpers package, you can use Composer:

composer require encoredigitalgroup/filament-helpers

#Upgrading to v2

The only change between v1 and v2 is a slight namespace change. v1 used EncoreDigitalGroup\FilamentHelpers. v2 now uses EncoreDigitalGroup\Filament\Helpers. This change was made to make this package consistent with other packages Encore Digital Group has. A simple find and replace will work for this upgrade as there are no other changes, breaking or otherwise, in this release.

#Upgrading to v3

The EncoreDigitalGroup\Filament\Helpers\Forms\GroupSection class had the following modifications:

• The make() method now only has one parameter: $schema. No changes are required for use of this parameter.

  • The $render parameter has been removed. Use of make($schema) automatically renders the component.
  • The $fluent parameter has been removed. Use GroupSection::fluent($schema) instead.
  • The $innerColumns parameter has been removed. Use GroupSection::fluent($schema)->innerColumns($int) instead.
  • The $outerColumns parameter has been removed. Use GroupSection::fluent($schema)->outerColumns($int) instead.
  • The $innerColumnSpan parameter has been removed. Use GroupSection::fluent($schema)->innerColumnSpan($int) instead.
  • The $outerColumnSpan parameter has been removed. Use GroupSection::fluent($schema)->outerColumnSpan($int) instead.

• The fluent() method has been added:

  • As the name suggests, this method does not automatically render the component. You can make your adjustments using the provided methods. Once you are finished making adjustments, you can call render() to render the component.
