Usage
This plugin is already accessible within the Infolists builder and now supports both the ->state([]) and ->record() methods.
use JaOcero\ActivityTimeline\Enums\IconAnimation;
public function activityTimelineInfolist(Infolist $infolist): Infolist
{
return $infolist
->state([
'activities' => [
[
'title' => "Published Article 🔥 - <span class='italic font-normal dark:text-success-400 text-success-600'>Published with Laravel Filament and Tailwind CSS</span>",
'description' => "<span>Approved and published. Here is the <a href='#' class='font-bold hover:underline dark:text-orange-300'>link.</a></span>",
'status' => 'published',
'created_at' => now()->addDays(8),
],
[
'title' => 'Reviewing Article - Final Touches',
'description' => "<span class='italic'>Reviewing the article and making it ready for publication.</span>",
'status' => '',
'created_at' => now()->addDays(5),
],
[
'title' => "Drafting Article - <span class='text-sm italic font-normal text-purple-800 dark:text-purple-300'>Make it ready for review</span>",
'description' => 'Drafting the article and making it ready for review.',
'status' => 'drafting',
'created_at' => now()->addDays(2),
],
[
'title' => 'Ideation - Looking for Ideas 🤯',
'description' => 'Idea for my article.',
'status' => 'ideation',
'created_at' => now()->subDays(7),
]
]
])
->schema([
/*
You should enclose the entire components within a personalized "ActivitySection" entry.
This section functions identically to the repeater entry; you simply have to provide the array state's key.
*/
ActivitySection::make('activities')
->label('My Activities')
->description('These are the activities that have been recorded.')
->schema([
ActivityTitle::make('title')
->placeholder('No title is set')
->allowHtml(), // Be aware that you will need to ensure that the HTML is safe to render, otherwise your application will be vulnerable to XSS attacks.
ActivityDescription::make('description')
->placeholder('No description is set')
->allowHtml(),
ActivityDate::make('created_at')
->date('F j, Y', 'Asia/Manila')
->placeholder('No date is set.'),
ActivityIcon::make('status')
->icon(fn (string | null $state): string | null => match ($state) {
'ideation' => 'heroicon-m-light-bulb',
'drafting' => 'heroicon-m-bolt',
'reviewing' => 'heroicon-m-document-magnifying-glass',
'published' => 'heroicon-m-rocket-launch',
default => null,
})
/*
You can animate icon with ->animation() method.
Possible values : IconAnimation::Ping, IconAnimation::Pulse, IconAnimation::Bounce, IconAnimation::Spin or a Closure
*/
->animation(IconAnimation::Ping)
->color(fn (string | null $state): string | null => match ($state) {
'ideation' => 'purple',
'drafting' => 'info',
'reviewing' => 'warning',
'published' => 'success',
default => 'gray',
}),
])
->showItemsCount(2) // Show up to 2 items
->showItemsLabel('View Old') // Show "View Old" as link label
->showItemsIcon('heroicon-m-chevron-down') // Show button icon
->showItemsColor('gray') // Show button color and it supports all colors
->aside(true)
->headingVisible(true) // make heading visible or not
->extraAttributes(['class'=>'my-new-class']) // add extra class
]);
}
When utilizing the ->record() function, you provide your model in a manner similar to the code showcased below:
protected $activities;
public function __construct()
{
$this->activities = User::query()->with('activities')->where('id', auth()->user()->id)->first();
}
public function activityTimelineInfolist(Infolist $infolist): Infolist
{
return $infolist
->record($this->activities)
// ... remaining code
}
Sometimes, when we don't have any info to show to users, it's important to improve their experience by displaying something. So, I include an empty state, like the one in the Filament Table Empty State.
public function activityTimelineInfolist(Infolist $infolist): Infolist
{
return $infolist
->state([
'activities' => []
)]
->schema([
ActivitySection::make('activities')
// ... other code
->emptyStateHeading('No activities yet.')
->emptyStateDescription('Check back later for activities that have been recorded.')
->emptyStateIcon('heroicon-o-bolt-slash')
])
}
Usage with Spatie Activity Log Package
This plugin works with spatie/laravel-activitylog, making it easy to log user actions in your app. It can also automatically log model events, storing everything in the activity_log table. To use the plugin, just install spatie/laravel-activitylog, set it up, and you're good to go.
Creating a Custom Page
You are required to create a custom page within your resources to display all activities based on the record passed to the route.
php artisan make:filament-page ViewOrderActivities --resource=OrderResource --type=custom
Including the Page in your Resource Class
Simply include the custom page in the getPages() method so that we can access it.
public static function getPages(): array
{
return [
// ... other pages
// The format of route doesn't matter, as long as it includes the route parameter {record}.
'activities' => Pages\ViewOrderActivities::route('/order/{record}/activities'),
];
}
In the actions method of your table, include an additional custom action. This action should redirect users to the custom page we've generated earlier.
public static function table(Table $table): Table
{
return $table
->columns([
// ...
])
->filters([
// ...
])
->actions([
Tables\Actions\Action::make('view_activities')
->label('Activities')
->icon('heroicon-m-bolt')
->color('purple')
->url(fn ($record) => OrderResource::getUrl('activities', ['record' => $record])),
])
->bulkActions([
// ...
]);
}
Setting up your Custom Page
Changes are needed in your custom page. Instead of extending using the regular Page class will make use of a specific class called ActivityTimelinePage provided by the plugin. Additionally, you should include your resource class.
use App\Filament\Resources\OrderResource;
use JaOcero\ActivityTimeline\Pages\ActivityTimelinePage;
class ViewOrderActivities extends ActivityTimelinePage
{
protected static string $resource = OrderResource::class;
}
Configuration
Behind the scenes, the plugin utilizes the previously mentioned infolists entry. We only modify the properties/data, but the logic remains unchanged.
use App\Filament\Resources\OrderResource;
use JaOcero\ActivityTimeline\Pages\ActivityTimelinePage;
class ViewOrderActivities extends ActivityTimelinePage
{
protected static string $resource = OrderResource::class;
protected function configuration(): array
{
return [
'activity_section' => [
'label' => 'Activities', // label for the section
'description' => 'These are the activities that have been recorded.', // description for the section
'show_items_count' => 0, // show the number of items to be shown
'show_items_label' => 'Show more', // show button label
'show_items_icon' => 'heroicon-o-chevron-down', // show button icon,
'show_items_color' => 'gray', // show button color,
'aside' => true, // show the section in the aside
'empty_state_heading' => 'No activities yet', // heading for the empty state
'empty_state_description' => 'Check back later for activities that have been recorded.', // description for the empty state
'empty_state_icon' => 'heroicon-o-bolt-slash', // icon for the empty state
'heading_visible' => true, // show the heading
'extra_attributes' => [], // extra attributes
],
'activity_title' => [
'placeholder' => 'No title is set', // this will show when there is no title
'allow_html' => true, // set true to allow html in the title
/**

Style customization
Similar to Filament, this plugin also includes CSS hook classes that enable the customization of different HTML elements through CSS.
.fi-timeline-section {
@apply bg-transparent !important;
}
This plugin comes with numerous CSS hook classes. For a straightforward approach, consider using your browser's developer tools to carefully examine the element and identify these classes.
