];

#Usage

use Schmeits\FilamentCharacterCounter\Forms\Components\TextInput;
use Schmeits\FilamentCharacterCounter\Forms\Components\Textarea;

TextInput::make('title')
    ->characterLimit(50),

Textarea::make('description')
    ->characterLimit(155),

RichEditor::make('content')
    ->characterLimit(155),

maxLength can also be used to limit the maximum number of characters, there is no need to specify the characterLimit as well.

TextInput::make('title')
    ->maxLength(50),

As an additional option, you can place the counter within your component using:

TextInput::make('title')
    ->showInsideControl(true)
    ->characterLimit(50),

You can also conditionally show or hide the coutner on a per-field basis:

// Hide the counter on this field
TextInput::make('slug')
    ->showCharacterCounter(false)
    ->characterLimit(100),

// Conditionally display via Closure
Textarea::make('bio')
    ->showCharacterCounter(fn (Get $get) => $get('is_pulic'))
    ->characterLimit(255),
