Getting started

Overview

Entry classes can be found in the Filament\Infolists\Components namespace. You can put them inside the $infolist->schema() method:

use Filament\Infolists\Infolist;

public function infolist(Infolist $infolist): Infolist
{
return $infolist
->schema([
// ...
]);
}

Entries may be created using the static make() method, passing its unique name. You may use "dot notation" to access entries within relationships.

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')

TextEntry::make('author.name')
Entries in an infolist

Available entries

You may also create your own custom entries to display data however you wish.

Setting a label

By default, the label of the entry, which is displayed in the header of the infolist, is generated from the name of the entry. You may customize this using the label() method:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->label('Post title')

Optionally, you can have the label automatically translated using Laravel's localization features with the translateLabel() method:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->translateLabel() // Equivalent to `label(__('Title'))`

Entry URLs

When an entry is clicked, you may open a URL.

Opening URLs

To open a URL, you may use the url() method, passing a callback or static URL to open. Callbacks accept a $record parameter which you may use to customize the URL:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->url(fn (Post $record): string => route('posts.edit', ['post' => $record]))

You may also choose to open the URL in a new tab:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->url(fn (Post $record): string => route('posts.edit', ['post' => $record]))
->openUrlInNewTab()

Setting a default value

To set a default value for entries with an empty state, you may use the default() method. This method will treat the default state as if it were real, so entries like image or color will display the default image or color.

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->default('Untitled')

Adding placeholder text if an entry is empty

Sometimes you may want to display placeholder text for entries with an empty state, which is styled as a lighter gray text. This differs from the default value, as the placeholder is always text and not treated as if it were real state.

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->placeholder('Untitled')
Entry with a placeholder for empty state

Adding helper text below the entry

Sometimes, you may wish to provide extra information for the user of the infolist. For this purpose, you may add helper text below the entry.

The helperText() method is used to add helper text:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('name')
->helperText('Your full name here, including any middle names.')

This method accepts a plain text string, or an instance of Illuminate\Support\HtmlString or Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Htmlable. This allows you to render HTML, or even markdown, in the helper text:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;
use Illuminate\Support\HtmlString;

TextEntry::make('name')
->helperText(new HtmlString('Your <strong>full name</strong> here, including any middle names.'))

TextEntry::make('name')
->helperText(str('Your **full name** here, including any middle names.')->inlineMarkdown()->toHtmlString())

TextEntry::make('name')
->helperText(view('name-helper-text'))
Entry with helper text

Adding a hint next to the label

As well as helper text below the entry, you may also add a "hint" next to the label of the entry. This is useful for displaying additional information about the entry, such as a link to a help page.

The hint() method is used to add a hint:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint('Documentation? What documentation?!')

This method accepts a plain text string, or an instance of Illuminate\Support\HtmlString or Illuminate\Contracts\Support\Htmlable. This allows you to render HTML, or even markdown, in the helper text:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(new HtmlString('<a href="/documentation">Documentation</a>'))

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(str('[Documentation](/documentation)')->inlineMarkdown()->toHtmlString())

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(view('api-key-hint'))
Entry with hint

Changing the text color of the hint

You can change the text color of the hint. By default, it's gray, but you may use danger, info, primary, success and warning:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(str('[Documentation](/documentation)')->inlineMarkdown()->toHtmlString())
->hintColor('primary')
Entry with hint color

Adding an icon aside the hint

Hints may also have an icon rendered next to them:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(str('[Documentation](/documentation)')->inlineMarkdown()->toHtmlString())
->hintIcon('heroicon-m-question-mark-circle')
Entry with hint icon

Adding a tooltip to a hint icon

Additionally, you can add a tooltip to display when you hover over the hint icon, using the tooltip parameter of hintIcon():

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('apiKey')
->label('API key')
->hint(str('[Documentation](/documentation)')->inlineMarkdown()->toHtmlString())
->hintIcon('heroicon-m-question-mark-circle', tooltip: 'Read it!')

Hiding entries

To hide an entry conditionally, you may use the hidden() and visible() methods, whichever you prefer:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('role')
->hidden(! auth()->user()->isAdmin())
// or
TextEntry::make('role')
->visible(auth()->user()->isAdmin())

Calculated state

Sometimes you need to calculate the state of an entry, instead of directly reading it from a database entry.

By passing a callback function to the state() method, you can customize the returned state for that entry:

Infolists\Components\TextEntry::make('amount_including_vat')
->state(function (Model $record): float {
return $record->amount * (1 + $record->vat_rate);
})

Tooltips

You may specify a tooltip to display when you hover over an entry:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('title')
->tooltip('Shown at the top of the page')
Entry with tooltip

This method also accepts a closure that can access the current infolist record:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

TextEntry::make('title')
->tooltip(fn (Model $record): string => "By {$record->author->name}")

Custom attributes

The HTML of entries can be customized, by passing an array of extraAttributes():

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('slug')
->extraAttributes(['class' => 'bg-gray-200'])

These get merged onto the outer <div> element of each entry in that entry.

Global settings

If you wish to change the default behaviour of all entries globally, then you can call the static configureUsing() method inside a service provider's boot() method, to which you pass a Closure to modify the entries using. For example, if you wish to make all TextEntry components words(10), you can do it like so:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::configureUsing(function (TextEntry $entry): void {
$entry
->words(10);
});

Of course, you are still able to overwrite this on each entry individually:

use Filament\Infolists\Components\TextEntry;

TextEntry::make('name')
->words(null)
