Authentication

You can decide whether or not to use authentication to access the administration panel. You can define it with use_auth parameter in the configuration file monkyz.php.

If use_auth parameters is true, Monkyz uses Laravel authentication. If you want to use auth, you can run artisan command php artisan make:auth.

Otherwise, if use_auth is false, the access to Monkyz is automatic.

Artisan Commands

monkyz:tables

Monkyz provides the artisan command:

php artisan monkyz:tables

This command allows you to automatically fill in the monkyz-tables.php config file.

It will automatically create all the necessary references to Monkyz for the db structure. Not overwrite already entered parameters: only add the parameters have not been set.

Customize

Custom Fields

Monkyz allows the creation of types of custom fields in the edit page of the record.

To create it, follow these steps:

  1. If you have not already done so, to publish the views:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Lab1353\Monkyz\Providers\MonkyzServiceProvider"

The following command will be published the views files in: /resources/views/vendor/monkyz

  1. Go to the resources/views/vendor/monkyz/ folder and create a new file blade, appointing him as your new field (for example: custom):
cd resources/views/vendor/monkyz
touch custom.blade.php

You can add css references using the section css:

@section('css')
  @parent

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="..." />
@endsection

or js with the section scripts:

@section('scripts')
  @parent

  <script type="text/javascript" src="..."></script>
@endsection
  1. Edit the new file as you prefer. Know that, the view, the following variables are passed:
  • $field: name of database column
  • $record: the Eloquent Model (to retrieve the value of the field then use: $record->$field)
  • $params: array of field parameters
  1. Now you can use your personal type of field, setting the parameter of the input fields:
'table_name'	=> [	// name of table in db
	'fields'	=> [
		'field_name'	=> [	// name of field in db
			'input'	=> 'custom',	// <-- change 'custom' with your custom field name

Google Analytics

In the dashboard, you can view the statistics taken from Google Analytics.

Monkyz used spatie/laravel-analytics package that requires a particular configuration to be able to retrieve data from Google Analytics.

You have to follow the official guide to create the file storage/app/laravel-google-analytics/service-account-credentials.json. Once you create the file, set the viewId parameter in the Settings page.
