Laravel Nova - Point Nova path to resource page

I need to point Nova path to a resouce. So that when a user login, he`ll directed to that particular resource.

I have updated this path in /config/nova.php:

'path' => '/crm/resources/clients'

Now after login, I can see the URL updated. But the page is still Welcome Nova page.

Any idea on this?

Solution

You can create a custom Asset or Tool to hook into the Vue Router. In our specific case, we wanted to redirect to our custom tool instead of a resource or the dashboard. Creating a tool generates a tool.js file where it allows you to hook into the vue-router.

Redirect from the dashboard to a named route

router.beforeEach((to, from, next) => {
   if (to.name == "dashboard.custom") {
      next({
          name: "reports" // Route added by our tool
      });
   } else {
      next();
   }
});

Redirect from the dashboard to a resource index

router.beforeEach((to, from, next) => {
   if (to.name == "dashboard.custom") {
      next({
          name: "index",
          params: {
            resourceName: 'model' // replace with resource name
          }
      });
   } else {
      next();
   }
});

Note resourceName is the name of the dynamic segment defined in the index route.
