Usage with Laravel Nova

[vpratfr]

Has anyone successfully managed to setup Nova with Binary UUIDs?

Currently trying to do so, but it seems to be a loooonnnnnggggg way till I get it to work.

Several reports here and there of people not being able to use it even with String UUIDs ...

Related Nova support issue for reference: laravel/nova-issues#873

That issue link seems to be a 404. Maybe because of GitHub being messed up?

Link is working here.

I am able to create records but get a 404 when Nova redirects to the newly created record detail page. But index page works fine. I have tried a lot of tricks but keep getting 404 after creating a new record. Here is my code

use Spatie\BinaryUuid\HasBinaryUuid;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

abstract class BaseModel extends Model
{
    use HasBinaryUuid;

    public $incrementing = false;

    public function getKeyName()
    {
        return 'id';
    }

    /**
     * Get the value of the model's route key.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function getRouteKey()
    {
        return $this->decodeUuid($this->attributes['id']);
    }

    public function getIdAttribute()
    {
        if(array_key_exists('id', $this->attributes)) {
            return $this->decodeUuid($this->attributes['id']);
        }
        return null;
    }
}

class Product extends BaseModel
{
    protected $table = 'products';

        /**
     * The binary UUID attributes that should be converted to text.
     *
     * @var array
     */
    protected $uuids = [
        'id' // foreign or related key
    ];

}

In Base Resource, I had to override detailQuery to transform string uuid back to binary uuid but still no luck even when the log statement returns the right record

use Ramsey\Uuid\Uuid;
use Laravel\Nova\Resource as NovaResource;
use Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest;

abstract class Resource extends NovaResource
{
    public static function hasUUIDKey()
    {
        return false;
    }

    public static function encodeUuid($uuid): string
    {
        if (! Uuid::isValid($uuid)) {
            return $uuid;
        }

        if (! $uuid instanceof Uuid) {
            $uuid = Uuid::fromString($uuid);
        }

        return $uuid->getBytes();
    }
    
     ...

    /**
     * Build a "detail" query for the given resource.
     *
     * @param  \Laravel\Nova\Http\Requests\NovaRequest  $request
     * @param  \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder  $query
     * @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder
     */
    public static function detailQuery(NovaRequest $request, $query)
    {
        if(static::hasUUIDKey()) {
           //  the log statement returns the right record
            info(json_encode($request->model()::withUuid($request->resourceId)->first(), JSON_PRETTY_PRINT));
            return $request->model()::withUuid($request->resourceId);
        }
        return parent::detailQuery($request, $query);
    }

}

    public static $category = "Catalogs";

    public static $search = [
        'name',
    ];

    public static function hasUUIDKey()
    {
        return true;
    }

    /**
     * Get the fields displayed by the resource.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request

     */
    public function fields(Request $request)
    {
        return [
            ID::make()->sortable(),
            Text::make("Name")->sortable(),
            TextArea::make("description")->onlyOnForms(),
            Boolean::make("Active?", "is_active"),
            Date::make('Created', 'created_at')->onlyOnIndex(),
        ];
    }

    /**

     *

     * @return array
     */
    public function cards(Request $request)
    {
        return [];
    }

    /**
     * Get the filters available for the resource.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return array
     */
    public function filters(Request $request)
    {
        return [];
    }

    /**
     * Get the lenses available for the resource.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return array
     */
    public function lenses(Request $request)
    {
        return [];
    }

    /**
     * Get the actions available for the resource.
     *
     * @param  \Illuminate\Http\Request  $request
     * @return array
     */
    public function actions(Request $request)
    {
        return [];
    }
}

Any idea how to make this work?
