List Draft/Revisions in a separate Filament Tab

[mansoorkhan96]

Problem

For some reason the table actions for draft/revisions table would not work. I have tried to add them separately and also tried to allow user to pass those actions but nothing works.

Solution

The work around for me was to use Tabs on ListRecord pages to filter records. This allowed the usage of existing actions. Other benefit of using tabs is:

• Less space on page
• Better UI
• Less code to maintain, we can remove the list-draftable-records view file and the livewire components it loads
• We dont need to define/pass which fields, actions and filters to load. Those will be loaded from resource itself.

The code we need:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Filament\Resources\Pages\ListRecords\Tab;

public function getTabs(): array
{
    return [
        'all' => Tab::make()
            ->modifyQueryUsing(fn (Builder $query) => $query->withoutDrafts()),
        'drafts' => Tab::make()
            ->modifyQueryUsing(fn (Builder $query) => $query->onlyDrafts()->where('is_current', true)),
    ];
}

@LukasFreyCZ I am planning to send this Pull request. I need to hear your thoughts.

Thanks :)
