Tricks

Twitter like user popover

To achieve this we will use Ryan Chandler's alpine-tooltip plugin as it is already integrated into filament. We need to register the light theme of tippy in the service provider because the tooltip's background is black in the default configuration.

Filament::registerStyles([
'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/tippy.js/2.5.4/themes/light.css',
'https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/tippy.js/6.3.2/animations/shift-away-subtle.min.css',
]);

This is the html part for popover.

<div x-data data-id="{{ $user->getAuthIdentifier() }}">
<template x-ref="template">
 
{{-- Loading indicator --}}
<div class="text-center">
<div role="status">

const id = $root.dataset.id;
 
fetch(`/admin/popover/user/${id}`)
.then((response) => response.text())

<a href="route-to-account" class="flex items-center text-base leading-6 font-medium text-gray-800 dark:text-white hover:underline">
{{ $user->name }}
</a>
</div>
</div>

Then you need to register the route.

Route::get('/popover/user/{user}', [UserController::class, 'popover']);

The controller has only one action that returns the blade view.

use App\Models\User;
use Illuminate\Contracts\View\View;
use Illuminate\Routing\Controller;
 
class UserController extends Controller
{
public function popover(User $user): View
{
return view('user.popover', [
'user' => $user,
]);
}
}

And at the end, create the view file that contains the content that will be displayed in the popover.

<div class="p-3">
<div class="flex items-center justify-between mb-2">
<a href="route-to-account">
<img class="w-10 h-10 rounded-full" src="{{ $userAvatar }}" alt="{{ $user->name }}">
</a>
<div>
<x-filament::button class="rounded-full">{{ __('Follow') }}</x-filament::button>
</div>
</div>
<p class="text-base font-semibold leading-none text-gray-900 dark:text-white">
<a href="route-to-account">{{ $user->name }}</a>
</p>
<p class="mb-3 text-sm font-normal">
<a href="route-to-account" class="hover:underline">{{ '@'.$user->username }}</a>
</p>
<p class="mb-4 text-sm font-light">
Some text about user
</p>
<ul class="flex text-sm font-light">
<li class="mr-2">
<a href="#" class="hover:underline">
<span class="font-semibold text-gray-900 dark:text-white">125</span>
<span>{{ __('Following') }}</span>
</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" class="hover:underline">
<span class="font-semibold text-gray-900 dark:text-white">289</span>
<span>{{ __('Followers') }}</span>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

And the final result:
