Create resources for "single" resources (key-value database structure), such as a settings table.

composer require norman-huth/nova-single-resource
The following description refers to the Model Settings as an example....
You can create a resource with php artisan nova:single-resource Setting.
The table still requires a primary ID and this package is designed to allow the Value column to be nullable.
use NormanHuth\SingleResource\Traits\ResourceTrait;
class Setting extends Resource
{
use ResourceTrait; // required
public function __construct($resource = null)
{
$this->bootResourceTrait(); // Required
parent::__construct($resource);
}
protected static function sections(): array
{
return [
'general-settings' =>
[
'name' => __('General Settings'),
'icon' => 'eye',
],
'system' =>
[
'name' => __('System'),
'faIcon' => 'fa-brands fa-laravel fa-fw',
],
];
}
/**
* The model the resource corresponds to.
*
* @var string
*/
public static string $model = \App\Models\Setting::class;
public function getGeneralSettingsFields(NovaRequest $request): array
{
return [
Currency::make('Price')->currency('EUR'),
Text::make(__('Text'), 'text'),
Boolean::make(__('Boolean'), 'boolean'),
];
}
public function getSystemFields(NovaRequest $request): array
{
return [
Date::make(__('Date'), 'Date'),
DateTime::make(__('DateTime'), 'DateTime'),
];
}
}
sections()'general-settings' => // Required: unique slug
[
'name' => 'My Settings' // Required: Display section name
'icon' => 'eye', // Optional: Heroicon icon https://heroicons.com/
'faIcon' => 'fa-brands fa-laravel fa-fw', // Optional: FontAwesome Icon (not included!) https://fontawesome.com/
],
And add for every section fields.
Format: get'.Str::studly($slug).'Fields: getGeneralSettingsFields(NovaRequest $request)
By default, the columns key and value are used in the database.
If you want to use others. You must specify them in the model:
class Setting extends Model
{
public static string $keyColumn = 'key';
public static string $valueColumn = 'value';
Text::make(__('SMTP Password'), 'smtp_password')
->cast('encrypted'),
In this resource must be used adjusted fields.
