#Usage

#Create a Simple Tab Widget

Create tabbed interfaces with individual Livewire components using the TabsWidget::make() method. This is the quickest way to get started with basic tab functionality.

#Step 1: Register the TabsWidget

First, register the TabsWidget in your Filament panel provider:

<?php
 
namespace App\Providers\Filament;
 
use Filament\Panel;
use Filament\PanelProvider;
 
class AdminPanelProvider extends PanelProvider
{
    public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
    {
        return $panel
            ->widgets([
                \SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Widgets\TabsWidget::class,
            ]);
    }
}

#Step 2: Implement in Your Resource

// In App\Filament\Resources\Users\Pages\ListUsers.php
 
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Schemas\SimpleTabSchema;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Widgets\TabsWidget;
 
class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    protected function getHeaderWidgets(): array
    {
        return [
            TabsWidget::make([
                SimpleTabSchema::make(
                    label: 'Account Widget',
                    id: 'account_widget',
                )->livewireComponent(\Filament\Widgets\AccountWidget::class),
 
                SimpleTabSchema::make(
                    label: 'Edit User',
                )->livewireComponent(\App\Filament\Resources\Users\Pages\EditUser::class, ['record' => 1]),
 
                SimpleTabSchema::make('Link')
                    ->url('https://example.com', true)
                    ->icon('heroicon-o-globe-alt'),
            ]),
        ];
    }
}

This approach provides three ways to configure tabs:

1. TabWidgetContentConfiguration object - Most explicit and type-safe
2. Array syntax - Simpler for basic configurations
3. Chain tab() method - Useful for adding tabs conditionally

#Create a Advanced Tab Widget

You can also create multiple Livewire components, HTML, and strings inside each tab. You can even make a tab act as a redirect link by extending the TabsWidget class.

To generate a Tab widget:

php artisan make:filament-tab-widget DummyTabs

You will then define the child components in the schema() method to display inside:

 
namespace App\Filament\Widgets;
 
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs\Tab as TabLayoutTab;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Schemas\Components\LivewireContainer;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Schemas\Components\TabContentContainer;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Widgets\TabsWidget as BaseWidget;
 
class DummyTabs extends BaseWidget
{
    protected function schema(): array
    {
        return [
 
            TabLayoutTab::make('Label 1')
                ->icon('heroicon-o-bell')
                ->badge('39')
                ->schema([
 
                    // Display Livewire component
                    LivewireContainer::make(\Filament\Widgets\AccountWidget::class),
 
                    // Display HTML
                    str('
## This is dummy HTML code inside a tab
 
- This is a bullet point
- Another bullet point
```php
echo "This is a code block";
```')->markdown()->toHtmlString(),
                ]),
 
            TabLayoutTab::make('Label 2')
                ->schema([
 
                    // Display raw string
                    'Raw string here',
 
                    // Display Livewire component
                    app(\App\Livewire\Dummy::class, ['__id' => uniqid() . '-dummy']),
 
                    // Display Livewire component with data
                    LivewireContainer::make(\App\Filament\Resources\Users\Pages\EditUser::class)
                        ->data(['record' => 1]),
 
                    LivewireContainer::make(\Filament\Widgets\AccountWidget::class)
                        ->columnSpan(1),
 
                    LivewireContainer::make(\Filament\Widgets\AccountWidget::class)
                        ->columnSpan(1),
                ])
                ->columns(2),
 
            // External link
            TabLayoutTab::make('Go To FilamentPHP (Link)')
                ->url("https://filamentphp.com/", true),
        ];
    }
}

#Customize the Icon and Badge

Tabs may have an icon and badge, which you can set using the icon() and badge() methods:

TabLayoutTab::make('Label 1')
    ->icon('heroicon-o-bell')
    ->badge('39')
    ->schema([
        // ...
    ]),

#Assign Parameters to Components

Additionally, you have the option to pass an array of data to your component.

protected function schema(): array
{
    return [
        TabLayoutTab::make('Label 1')
            ->icon('heroicon-o-bell')
            ->badge('39')
            ->schema([
                LivewireContainer::make(\Filament\Widgets\AccountWidget::class),
 
                // Display Livewire component with data
                LivewireContainer::make(ViewProductCategory::class)
                    // The Data of target component
                    ->data(['record' => 1]),
            ]),
 
        TabLayoutTab::make('Label 2')
            ->schema([
                LivewireContainer::make(\Filament\Widgets\FilamentInfoWidget::class),
            ]),
    ];
}

Then, add the tab widget to your page, e.g.:

// In App\Resources\UserResource\ListUsers.php
 
class ListUsers extends ListRecords
{
    protected function getHeaderWidgets(): array
    {
        return [
            \App\Filament\Widgets\DummyTabs::class,
        ];
    }
}

#Set Default Active Tab

Control which tab is active when the widget loads. You can set this either dynamically with a callback or with a static tab order.

use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Widgets\TabsWidget as BaseWidget;
 
class DummyTabs extends BaseWidget
{
    public static function tabs(Tabs $tabs): Tabs
    {
        return $tabs
            // Dynamic: Use a callback to determine the active tab
            ->activeTab(function (self $livewire, Tabs $component): int {
                return 2; // Second tab will be active
            })
            // Static: Set a specific tab as active by order
            ->activeTab(2); // Second tab will be active
    }
}

#Persist Active Tab in URL

Maintain the selected tab state when users reload the page or share URLs. This feature saves the active tab in the browser's query string, providing a better user experience.

Requirements:

• Each tab must have a unique id
• The tab group needs an id attribute
• Define a Livewire property to store the active tab state

use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs\Tab as TabLayoutTab;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Widgets\TabsWidget as BaseWidget;
 
class DummyTabs extends BaseWidget
{
    // Property to store the active tab state
    public $activeTab = '';
 
    // Enable Livewire query string binding for URL persistence
    public function queryString()
    {
        return ['activeTab'];
    }
 
    public static function tabs(Tabs $tabs): Tabs
    {
        return $tabs
            ->id('dummy-tabs') // Required: unique ID for the tab group
            // Option 1: Use a callback to determine the query parameter name
            ->persistTabInQueryString(function ($component, $livewire) {
                return 'activeTab'; // Property name to sync with URL
            })
            // Option 2: Direct property name for URL persistence
            ->persistTabInQueryString('activeTab');
    }
 
    protected function schema(): array
    {
        return [
            TabLayoutTab::make(label: 'Tab 1', id: 'sample-1')
                ->schema([
                    // Tab 1 content...
                ]),
            TabLayoutTab::make(label: 'Tab 2', id: 'sample-2')
                ->schema([
                    // Tab 2 content...
                ]),
        ];
    }
}

Note: When using URL persistence, each tab must have a unique id and the tab group needs an id attribute.

#Removing the Styled Container

By default, tabs and their content are wrapped in a styled card container. You can remove this container styling using the contained() method:

use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs;
 
class DummyTabs extends BaseWidget
{
    public static function tabs(Tabs $tabs): Tabs
    {
        return $tabs
            ->contained(false);
    }
}

#Create Your Own Tab Container

In addition to using the LivewireContainer component, you can create your own custom tab layout components by extending the TabLayoutComponent class or using the php artisan tab-layout:component command.

For example, the following PHP code defines a FilamentInfoWidget class that extends TabLayoutComponent and specifies a ComponentTabComponent as the tab component to use. The getData method can be used to populate the component with data.

<?php
 
namespace App\Filament\Tabs\Components;
 
use Filament\Widgets\FilamentInfoWidget as ComponentTabComponent;
use SolutionForest\TabLayoutPlugin\Components\Tabs\TabLayoutComponent;
 
class FilamentInfoWidget extends TabLayoutComponent
{
    protected ?string $component = ComponentTabComponent::class;
 
    public function getData(): array
    {
        return [
            // Data to assign to component
        ];
    }
}

You can also use the php artisan tab-layout:component command to generate the code for a new tab layout component. For example, to generate a FilamentInfoWidget component, you can run the following command:

php artisan tab-layout:component FilamentInfoWidget Filament\Widgets\FilamentInfoWidget

After creating your custom tab layout component by extending the TabLayoutComponent class, you can register it on the schema of a TabLayoutTab instance.

protected function schema(): array
{
    return [
        ...
        TabLayoutTab::make('Label 3')
            ->schema([
                \App\Filament\Tabs\Components\FilamentInfoWidget::make()
                    // ->data([]),  // Also can assign data here
            ]),
    ];
}
