Does anyone have any experience with displaying belongsTo relationship details in separate panel?
For an example, we have an Order resource and in details page of it I would like to display fields from Customer (belongsTo) in separate panel.
Currently I am using BelongsTo Field, but this generates only link to Customer resouce.
@STEREOH - I understand one to many relationship, but I am having problem displaying said relationship in Laravel Nova. By default, resource displays belongsTo relationship as a name of resource with link to said resource, but I want it to display specific fields of said resource.
You can read more about it here https://nova.laravel.com/docs/1.0/resources/relationships.html#belongsto
@zhigad Did you eventually find a way around this?
Yeah sorry, I didn't see the nova tag.
Never used it so I can't help you.
@drflash If I remember correctly I solved it using callback. For an example:
Text::make('Relation', function () {
return $this->resource->relation ? $this->resource->relation->relation_data : null;
})
``
You can do it by using the display-function to select what to display. See example below, you can also use this relation multiple times to display more than one field.
BelongsTo::make('MyRessource', 'myressource', 'App\Nova\myressource')->display(function ($myressource) { return $myressource->Field_to_display; }),
