Installation

Install the package in to a Laravel app that uses Nova via composer:

composer require outl1ne/nova-input-filter

Usage

Accepts an array of columns as first parameter and filter name as second parameter. Can optionally pass in multiple columns: ['email', 'id'], similarly to nova's search.

use Outl1ne\NovaInputFilter\InputFilter;
use Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest;

// ..

public function filters(NovaRequest $request): array
{
    return [
        InputFilter::make()->forColumns(['email'])->withName('Email'),

        // Or

        InputFilter::make(['email'], 'email'),
    ];
}

Customizing

Out of the box, InputFilter works exactly like Nova's search field. If you wish to change it, you can extend the InputFilter class and override apply() function.

use Outl1ne\NovaInputFilter\InputFilter;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest;

class ExtendedInputFilter extends InputFilter
{
    public function apply(NovaRequest $request, Builder $query, mixed $value)
    {
        return $query->where('email', 'like', "%$value%");
    }
}
