Installation

Install the package in a Laravel Nova project via Composer and run migrations:

# Install nova-media-hub
composer require outl1ne/nova-media-hub

# Run migrations
php artisan migrate

Register the tool with Nova in the tools() method of the NovaServiceProvider:

// in app/Providers/NovaServiceProvider.php

public function tools()
{
    return [
        // ...
        \Outl1ne\NovaMediaHub\MediaHub::make()
        // You can choose to hide the Tool from the sidebar
          ->hideFromMenu()

          // Optionally add additional fields to Media items
          ->withCustomFields(
            ['copyright' => __('Copyright')],
            overwrite: false
          )
    ];
}

Usage

Fields

This package provides a field MediaHubField which allows you to select media. This saves the media as a JSON array into the database.

Example usage:

use Outl1ne\NovaMediaHub\Nova\Fields\MediaHubField;

// ...

MediaHubField::make('Media', 'media')
  ->defaultCollection('products') // Define the default collection the "Choose media" modal shows
  ->multiple(), // Define whether multiple media can be selected

Casting

The media column of models can be automatically cast as a Collection of Media models:

class Product extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'media' => \Outl1ne\NovaMediaHub\Casts\MediaCast::class,
    ];
}

    $cover = Product::first()->media->first();

    // ...

    $urls = Product::first()->media->pluck('url');

    // ...

    $collection = Product::first()->media->where('collection_name', 'Details');

Configure

The config file can be published using the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Outl1ne\NovaMediaHub\MediaHubServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Localization
