Quick start

We use users table come with Laravel for example,the structure of table is:

users
    id          - integer
    name        - string
    email       - string
    password    - string
    created_at  - timestamp
    updated_at  - timestamp

And the model for this table is App\User.php

You can follow these steps to setup CURD interfaces of table users:

Add controller

Use the following command to create a controller for App\User model

php artisan admin:make UserController --model=App\\User

// under windows use:
php artisan admin:make UserController --model=App\User

In v1.8.0 version, you can use the admin:controller command to create a controller:

php artisan admin:controller --model=App\User

The above command will create the controller in app/Admin/Controllers/UserController.php.

Add route

Add a route in app/Admin/routes.php：

$router->resource('demo/users', UserController::class);

Open http://localhost:8000/admin/auth/menu, add menu link and refresh the page, then you can find a link item in left menu bar.

Where uri fills in the path part that does not contain the prefix of the route, such as the full path http://localhost:8000/admin/demo/users, just input demo/users, If you want to add an external link, just fill in the full url, such as http://laravel-admin.org/.

Write CURD page logic

The controller app/Admin/Controllers/UserController.php created by the admin:make command is as follows:

<?php

namespace App\Admin\Controllers;

use App\Models\User;
use Encore\Admin\Controllers\AdminController;
use Encore\Admin\Form;
use Encore\Admin\Grid;
use Encore\Admin\Show;

class UserController extends AdminController
{
    protected $title ='Users';

    protected function grid()
    {
        $grid = new Grid(new User());

        $grid->column('id', __('Id'));
        $grid->column('name', __('Name'));
        $grid->column('email', __('Email'));
        $grid->column('password', __('Password'));
        $grid->column('created_at', __('Created at'));
        $grid->column('updated_at', __('Updated at'));

        return $grid;
    }

    protected function detail($id)
    {
        $show = new Show(User::findOrFail($id));

        $show->field('id', __('Id'));
        $show->field('name', __('Name'));
        $show->field('email', __('Email'));
        $show->field('password', __('Password'));
        $show->field('created_at', __('Created at'));
        $show->field('updated_at', __('Updated at'));

        return $show;
    }

    protected function form()
    {
        $form = new Form(new User());

        $form->textarea('name', __('Name'));
        $form->textarea('email', __('Email'));
        $form->textarea('password', __('Password'));

        return $form;
    }
}

The $title attribute is used to set the title of this CURD module, which can be modified to any other string.

The grid method corresponds to the list page of the data. Refer to [model-grid documentation] (model-grid) to implement the related functional logic of the list page.

The detail method corresponds to the details page of the data, click on the detail display button in the operation column of the list page, and refer to [model-show documentation] (model-show.md) to realize the details page Related functional logic.

The form method corresponds to the create and edit pages of the data. Refer to [model-form documentation] (model-form.md) to implement the relevant functional logic of the data creation and edit pages.
