composer require upline/nova-link-field

• Link is displayed as a resource link in the index and detail views.
• In forms, the link is shown as a text input.

Usage

use Upline\NovaLinkField\Link; class User extends Resource { // ... public function fields(NovaRequest $request) { return [ // ... Link::make('Instagram') // Get link from instagram model field ->text(fn() => 'Instagram link') // Set static anchor  ->target('_blank') // Set target attribute ]; } }

use Upline\NovaLinkField\Link; class User extends Resource { // ... public function fields(NovaRequest $request) { return [ // ... Link::make('Instagram', fn($resource) => 'https://instagram.com/' . $resource->instagramId) // Compute link ->text('instagram_username') // Use instagram_username field as anchor text ->target('_blank') ]; } }

Why it is better than formatting text as link

In this example we don't escape $username, so we can get some security troubles.

Text::make('Twitter Profile', function () { $username = $this->twitterUsername; return "<a href='https://twitter.com/{$username}'>@{$username}</a>"; })->asHtml(), 

Same, using this package:

Link::make('Twitter Profile', function () { $username = $this->twitterUsername; return "https://twitter.com/{$username}"; })->text('username'), 

However, in this case link and username will be escaped. If you need to use html in anchor text, you still can use asHtml() method.
