Action buttons

Action Buttons

Action buttons are displayed when browsing a BREAD next to each row
You can add your own buttons very easily. First we will create an Action-class which extends Voyagers AbstractAction in app/Actions/MyAction.php
<?php
namespace App\Actions;
use TCG\Voyager\Actions\AbstractAction;
class MyAction extends AbstractAction
{
public function getTitle()
{
return 'My Action';
}
public function getIcon()
{
return 'voyager-eye';
}
public function getPolicy()
{
return 'read';
}
public function getAttributes()
{
return [
'class' => 'btn btn-sm btn-primary pull-right',
];
}
public function getDefaultRoute()
{
return route('my.route');
}
}
Next we need to tell Voyager that we want to use this action. For this open your app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php and search for the boot() method
<?php
namespace App\Providers;
use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;
use Illuminate\Events\Dispatcher;
use TCG\Voyager\Facades\Voyager;
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
public function boot()
{
Voyager::addAction(\App\Actions\MyAction::class);
}
}
After that you will see your new button when browsing any BREAD

Showing/hiding actions

If you only want to show your action for special datatypes you can implement a function shouldActionDisplayOnDataType() in your action:
<?php
public function shouldActionDisplayOnDataType()
{
return $this->dataType->slug == 'posts';
}

Mass Actions

Mass actions are called for multiple instances of a model. If you want your action to be a mass action, just implement the following method:
<?php
public function massAction($ids, $comingFrom)
{
// Do something with the IDs
return redirect($comingFrom);
}
