Creating and managing additional table actions

[afatmustafa]

This PR adds creating and managing additional table actions within the {moduleName}Controller

Description

This feature is actually available in Twill, called "filterLinks", but this PR gives you a more flexible environment while adding additional table actions.

Using Scenario

Imagine you have a newsletter module, for user convenience you want to provide options such as "Send Email", "Edit Email Template" and "Export List" in this table. and at that moment this feature will save you.

Usage

Usage is very simple, just go to the module's controller, use additionalTableActions function and return an array.

   public function additionalTableActions()
    {
        return [
            'exportAction' => [ // Action name.
                'name' => 'Export Newsletter List', // Button action title.
                'variant' => 'primary', // Button style variant. Available variants; primary, secondary, action, editor, validate, aslink, aslink-grey, warning, ghost, outline, tertiary
                'size' => 'small', // Button size. Available sizes; small
                'link' => route('newsletter.export'), // Button action link.
                'target' => '', // Leave it blank for self.
                'type' => 'a', // Leave it blank for "button".
            ]
        ];
    }

Example

In App\Http\Controllers\Admin\NewsletterController.php

    public function additionalTableActions()
    {
        return [
            'sendEmail' => [
                'name' => 'Send Email',
                'variant' => 'action',
                'size' => 'small',
                'link' => route('newsletter.sendEmail'),
                'target' => '',
                'type' => 'a',
            ],
            'editEmailTemplate' => [
                'name' => 'Edit Email Template',
                'variant' => 'primary',
                'size' => 'small',
                'link' => route('newsletter.editEmailTemplate'),
                'target' => '',
                'type' => 'a',
            ],
            'exportAction' => [
                'name' => 'Export List',
                'variant' => 'secondary',
                'size' => 'small',
                'link' => route('newsletter.export'),
                'target' => '',
                'type' => 'a',
            ],
        ];
    }
