        // ...
        ->plugins([
            FilamentDocsPlugin::make(),
        ]);
}

Configuration

Config file: config/filament-docs.php

return [
    // Visibility: 'public', 'admin', or 'password'
    'default_visibility' => env('DOCS_VISIBILITY', 'admin'),

    // Route prefixes
    'route_prefix' => 'docs',
    'api_prefix' => 'api/docs',

    // Middleware
    'admin_middleware' => ['web', 'auth', 'admin'],
    'public_middleware' => ['web'],

    // Features
    'features' => [
        'search' => true,
        'export' => true,
        'wiki_links' => true,
    ],

    // Media storage disk
    'media_disk' => env('DOCS_MEDIA_DISK', 'public'),

    // Custom admin check (optional)
    'admin_check' => null, // fn($user) => $user->hasRole('admin'),
];

Visibility Modes

API Endpoints

GET  /api/docs              - Navigation tree
GET  /api/docs/pages        - All pages list
GET  /api/docs/{slug}       - Page content with prev/next
GET  /api/docs/search?q=    - Search pages
POST /api/docs/verify-password - Verify password (for password mode)

Wiki-Links

Use Obsidian-style syntax in content:

[[getting-started]]              → Links to page with slug "getting-started"
[[getting-started|Get Started]]  → Links with custom display text
[[admin/users]]                  → Links to nested page

Broken links are highlighted in red. Backlinks appear at the bottom of each page.

Export

From the admin panel (Doc Pages list):

• Export to HTML - Downloads ZIP with static HTML files, inline CSS, and base64 images
• Export to PDF - Downloads single PDF with cover page and table of contents

Frontend Integration

Example React integration:

// API service
export const docsAPI = {
  getNavigation: () => api.get('/api/docs'),
  getPage: (slug) => api.get(`/api/docs/${slug}`),
  search: (query) => api.get('/api/docs/search', { params: { q: query } }),
};

// Usage
const { data } = await docsAPI.getPage('getting-started');
// data: { title, content, breadcrumb, children, prev, next, backlinks }

Search Setup (Optional)

For full-text search, configure Laravel Scout with Meilisearch:

composer require meilisearch/meilisearch-php

SCOUT_DRIVER=meilisearch
MEILISEARCH_HOST=http://localhost:7700
MEILISEARCH_KEY=your-master-key

php artisan scout:import "Vlotysh\FilamentDocs\Models\DocPage"
