Build consistent Nova resources that mirror domain models and evolve safely.
Fields
- Keep fields ordered: identifiers → primary attributes → relations → meta
- Use
->sortable()/->filterable()where it delivers value - Hide sensitive fields (e.g., tokens) from index/detail unless necessary
- Prefer
BelongsTo/HasMany/Morph*relations with searchable constraints
Authorization
- Use Nova policies mirroring model policies for
viewAny,view,create,update,delete - Avoid leaking existence via unauthorized search; scope queries
Actions
- Keep actions idempotent or provide safeguards
- Provide confirmation messages and clear result feedback
Filters & Lenses
- Filters: simple, commonly used constraints (status, owner, date range)
- Lenses: opinionated, task‑centric views (e.g., stale items)
Metrics
- Value/Trend/Partition metrics for essentials; cache appropriately
- Use explicit time ranges; label units clearly
Resource Organization
- Group resources by domain (navigation grouping)
- Keep display titles meaningful; use
title()consistently
Testing
- Prefer feature tests that exercise policy + query scope + resource logic
- For actions, test success and failure states with realistic seed data
