Nova Recent Posts Card

What is this package about?

This will add a simple full width card in your dashboard with a list of recent posts.

You obviously need to have a basic blogging system already setup in order to use this. It just need a posts table and a with at least title column in it and a one-to-many relationship with the user.

Both the posts model and the relationship name - as well as other parameters - can be altered from the card constructor.

Installation

You can install the package in to a Laravel app that uses Nova via composer:

composer require mattmangoni/nova-recent-posts

Next, you must register the card with Nova. This is typically done in the cards method of the NovaServiceProvider.

// in app/Providers/NovaServiceProvder.php

// ...
public function cards()
{
    return [
        // ...

        // all the parameters are optional
        new \Mattmangoni\RecentPosts\RecentPosts(
            string $authorRelationName = 'user',
            string $dateFormat = 'Y-m-d',
            int $postsNumber = 5,
            string $postModel = 'App\Post',
            string $userUriKey = 'users'
        ),
    ];
}
