Optional

You can publish views using below command.

    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=comments-admin-panel-resources

Usage

All you need to do is navigate to the package's default route end point /admin/comments/dashboard

Config

Config file is published as comments-admin-panel.php in the config directory.

If it is missing, you can re-publish it using the command below.

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=comments-admin-panel-config

This will publish following config file

//config/comments-admin-panel.php
<?php

use LakM\Comments\AdminPanel\Middleware\AdminPanelAccessMiddleware;

return [
        'enabled' => true,
        'routes' => [
            'middlewares' => [
                'web',
                AdminPanelAccessMiddleware::class, // Removing this, allow users to access admin panel if enabled is set to true !
            ],
            'prefix' => 'admin',
        ],
        /**
         * Commentable models(must implement CommentableContract) that the admin panel must track
         * Keep empty to use models auto-discovery
         */
        'commentable_models' => [],
];

Authorization

By default, routes are enabled if it is not in production environment. You can change this behaviour by setting enabled variable to false in the config file.

'enabled' => false

Production

Before deploying to production (in production mode), the canAccessAdminPanel method must be implemented in the auth model; otherwise, you will receive a 404 status. This behaviour is handled by the AdminPanelAccessMiddleware::class middleware.

//config/comments-admin-panel.php
  public function canAccessAdminPanel(): bool
  {
     return true;
  }

Note

Don't forget to set 'enabled' => true in the config file.

Models Discovery

By default, package scan all the commentable models in App/Models namespace. You can change this behaviour by explicitly defining models you want admin panel to track.

//config/comments-admin-panel.php
return [
    'commentable_models' => [Post::class], // Admin panel only track for post class
]

Route

You can access to the admin panel visiting default route end point /admin/comments/dashboard

Prefix

By default, admin prefix is added to package's routes you can change it as following example.

'routes' => ['prefix' => 'admin'],

Middlewares

By default, web and AdminPanelAccessMiddleware::class middlewares are applied you can change it as following example.

 'routes' => [
            'middlewares' => [
                'web',
                AdminPanelAccessMiddleware::class, // Removing this, allow users to access admin panel if enabled is set to true !
            ],
        ],

Customization

You can customize all the views by publishing them using below commands,

    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=comments-admin-panel-resources

This will publish views to the \resources\views\comments-admin-panel directory.

Assets

Package's install command comments-admin-panel:install, publish assets to the \public\vendor\lakm\comments-admin-panel directory.

Here is the command to publish them manually.

    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=comments-admin-panel-assets

Build assets

You can build assets using any assets building tool. By default, package has used laravel vite plugin. Make sure to use right build directory public\vendor\lakm\comments-admin-panel\build

Important

When building assets the re should be only one input file and that is should be app.js. You can do that as following using vite.

// vite.config.js

import { defineConfig } from 'vite';
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin';

export default defineConfig({
   plugins: [
       laravel({
           hotFile: 'public/vendor/lakm/comments-admin-panel/comments-admin-panel.hot',
           buildDirectory: 'vendor/lakm/comments-admin-panel/build', // This is important
           input: ['resources/js/app.js'], // This is important
           refresh: true,
       }),
   ],
});
