| description | Create, modify, review, or test the Vendra Activity Log package in packages/vendra-activity-log. Use for ActivityLog records, activity capture/listeners, model contracts, migrations, policies, permission enums, Filament listing and filters, configuration, translations, package registration, and activity-log tests. |
Vendra Activity Log
Workflow
Translatable Persistence
-
Making a persisted model field translatable is an explicit domain choice unless this package already requires it.
-
Every field listed in a model's $translatable array must definitely use a JSON database column. Keep its model traits/casts, factories, validation, Filament locale UI, API serialization, and tests translation-aware.
-
A field not listed in $translatable must use the appropriate scalar database type and must not use Spatie Translatable, translatable slug traits, locale switchers, translated callbacks, or translation-shaped array data.
-
Register every table whose migration calls TenantSchema::addTenantColumn() with TenantTableRegistry in this package's service provider, preserving configured table names and connections, so vendra-tenant:enable {tenant} can retrofit schemas migrated before tenancy was enabled.
Always use this skill together with laravel-best-practices for Laravel PHP and pest-testing when tests are added or changed. Use tailwindcss-development only when editing Blade or Tailwind UI.
Before code changes, use Laravel Boost application-info and search-docs for the relevant packages. Prefer Boost database and browser tools over ad hoc debugging.
Module Boundary
Treat packages/vendra-activity-log as the source of activity-log domain behavior and Filament admin UI.
- Use namespace
Misaf\VendraActivityLog.
- Keep domain models, factories, seeders, policies, observers, console commands, Filament classes, config, migrations, translations, and tests inside this module.
- Do not place activity-log domain code in the host app unless the host app is only integrating the module.
- Keep cross-module dependencies explicit in
composer.json; do not introduce a dependency without approval.
Domain Model Standards
Follow the existing ActivityLog patterns for new activity-log entities.
- Use
declare(strict_types=1), final classes, typed method signatures, and PHPDoc generics for relationships.
- Follow Laravel comment style: document with PHPDoc (array shapes, generics,
@see) and reserve inline comments for genuinely complex logic. Match the surrounding file's density and do not add comments that restate the code.
- Prefer only the Laravel attributes already used by the affected sibling model; do not add model attributes merely because another package uses them.
- Keep the module tenant-agnostic: derive tenant awareness purely from the bound
TenantResolver in misaf/vendra-support (TenantAwareness, BelongsToTenant, TenantSchema, RequiresCurrentTenant). The module must build and run whether or not a tenant provider is installed, so never reference a concrete provider such as Misaf\VendraTenant anywhere — models, migrations, factories, seeders, or fixtures. There is no tenant_aware config toggle.
- Hide
tenant_id and keep tenant behavior centralized in the support layer; do not duplicate tenant scoping or tenant_id assignment in models, Filament resources, factories, or seeders. BelongsToTenant assigns tenant_id on creating from the current tenant.
- Reuse only the traits and conventions present on the affected sibling model; do not infer translations, media, slugs, sorting, or soft deletes from another package.
Filament Standards
Keep every resource that declares a $cluster, including its pages, schemas, tables, relation managers, actions, and resource-scoped widgets, under src/Filament/Clusters/Resources/ with the matching Misaf\VendraActivityLog\Filament\Clusters\Resources namespace and plugin discovery path. Resources without a cluster belong under src/Filament/Resources/. Keep dashboard widgets in src/Filament/Widgets.
- Register module UI through the module
Plugin and ServiceProvider; do not manually wire resources in unrelated panel providers.
- Keep
ActivityLogResource thin by delegating table configuration to Tables/ActivityLogTable.php. Do not add a form schema unless activity records intentionally become editable.
- Use Filament v5 namespaces: form fields from
Filament\Forms\Components, layout from Filament\Schemas\Components, table columns from Filament\Tables\Columns, filters from Filament\Tables\Filters, actions from Filament\Actions, and icons from Filament\Support\Icons\Heroicon.
- Use this module's translation keys (
vendra-activity-log::attributes, vendra-activity-log::navigation) for labels, breadcrumbs, and navigation.
- Keep cluster resources ungrouped and assign
$navigationSort from their package-specific NavigationPriority case; never hardcode numeric resource sort values.
- Provide separate singular and plural resource labels in
en, de, and fa: model labels use the singular key, while navigation and plural model labels use the plural key. Keep navigation labels at 24 characters or fewer.
- Prevent N+1 issues in tables and relation managers with eager loading,
withCount, or computed state based on loaded relationships.
- Use public media visibility only when public access is actually required.
Permissions And Navigation
Use policy enums and policies as the permission source.
- Add enum cases for every resource action the panel exposes.
- Keep policy method names aligned with Filament actions:
viewAny, view, create, update, delete, deleteAny, restore, restoreAny, forceDelete, forceDeleteAny, replicate, and reorder as applicable.
- Update
PermissionPolicySeeder when new permissions are introduced.
- Keep navigation labels and groups configurable through the module
Plugin and config/vendra-activity-log.php. Do not add a tenant_aware config value; tenant awareness derives from the bound TenantResolver.
Data And Localization
Migrations, factories, seeders, and translation files are part of the contract.
- Use package migrations in
database/migrations, with stubs only when the install flow expects publishing.
- Keep Activity Log's event, batch UUID, and optional tenant fields in one final create migration; do not require Spatie's base or follow-up migrations.
- Use factories under
database/factories and seeders under database/seeders. Keep them tenant-safe: import no concrete tenant provider and set no tenant_id directly; let BelongsToTenant assign it from the current tenant so they work with tenancy on or off.
- Keep demo fixtures deterministic and tenant-safe.
- Update all supported locales together and keep translation keys sorted.
- Preserve translation key parity tests when adding labels or attributes.
Testing And Verification
Prefer focused Pest tests in the module.
- Keep tests purposeful and prevent unnecessary ones: cover behavior, contracts, and edge cases — not framework internals or trivially typed code. Do not duplicate coverage a focused test already proves, and do not add throwaway verification scripts (or
tinker) when a test fits.
- Add or update unit tests for model contracts, policy permission coverage, resolver-derived tenant awareness, navigation/config behavior, and translation parity.
- Keep Pest architecture tests in
tests/ArchTest.php: the php, security, and laravel presets, plus an expectation that the module stays tenant-agnostic, e.g. arch()->expect('Misaf\VendraActivityLog')->not->toUse('Misaf\VendraTenant').
- Add feature or Livewire tests when changing Filament behavior with meaningful user-visible effects.
- Run module checks from the package when possible:
composer --working-dir=packages/vendra-activity-log test and composer --working-dir=packages/vendra-activity-log analyse.
- If PHP files changed, run Pint for the touched code:
vendor/bin/pint --dirty --format agent from the host app, or the module formatter if working only inside the package.
