I have this in the Nova fields method:
Number::make('views', function() {
return 'something: ' . number_format('views') . 'x';
})->sortable();
I want to sort by the raw views value in the database, while display some string version that formatted the views count. Is this possible?
Maybe this is what your are searching for: https://nova.laravel.com/docs/3.0/resources/fields.html#field-resolution-formatting
Maybe like...but you need to adjust it to your needs.
Number::make('views')->displayUsing(function ($views) {
return 'something: ' . number_format($views) . 'x';
})->sortable()
