ImageColumn and multiple avatars

shouldnt ImageColumn::make('belongsToManyRelationship.avatar') work? according to the docs, it looks like it should. Now all avatars would be defaults, but I checked with tinker and each of the relationships do return the avatar url, but not getting anything in the column. If I try using getStateUsing() to troubleshoot it, it says it only handles a string, which I would think wouldn’t be the case for multiple image support.

Solution:

looks like i had to append it like so:

protected $appends = ['avatar', 'phone'];

protected $appends = ['avatar', 'phone'];

...

are you getting null in the column or is the image being shrunk down by styling so that it looks like it isn't there?

hmm, just empty

<div class="fi-ta-image px-3 py-4"></div>

<div class="fi-ta-image px-3 py-4"></div>

. So if i do a TextColumn::make('belongsToManyRelationship.avatar'), i dont get anything either. I would think that would list the urls. If i do TextColumn::make('belongsToManyRelationship.name'), it does show the name

weird and it's a stored column on the model? or is avatar an attribute on the model

to the model

awcodes•16mo ago

that was my next question

Mark ChaneyOP•16mo ago

why is it sometimes required and others not to access the attribute?

awcodes•16mo ago

i honestly don't know. it has frustrated me before too. Are you defining it the the Attribute cast or the old way?

Mark ChaneyOP•16mo ago

had to do

    public function getAvatarAttribute(): ?string
    {
        return Filament::getUserAvatarUrl($this);
    }

    public function getAvatarAttribute(): ?string
    {
        return Filament::getUserAvatarUrl($this);
    }

to get avatars to work outside the panel

just wondering if this still requires the appends:

public function avatar(): Attribute
{
    return new Attribute(
      get: fn () => Filament::getUserAvatarUrl($this)
    );
}

public function avatar(): Attribute
{
    return new Attribute(
      get: fn () => Filament::getUserAvatarUrl($this)
    );
}

It probably does, i'm just curious though.
