use Filament\Notifications\Notification;
 
SocialShareAction::make()
    ->before(function () {
        // Execute before sharing modal opens
        Notification::make()
            ->title('Opening share options...')
            ->info()
            ->send();
    })
    ->after(function () {
        // Execute after sharing process
        \Log::info('User opened social share modal');
    })
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin()

#Default Colors

The plugin comes with sensible default colors for each platform:

Facebook: #3b82f6 (Blue)
LinkedIn: #1d4ed8 (Dark Blue)
Reddit: #ea580c (Orange)
Email: #000000 (Black)

#Different Approaches to Define Configurations

Using named parameters in main social plataform method

SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook(
        enabled: true,
        icon: 'fab-facebook-f',
        tooltip: 'Share this post on Facebook',
        color: '#1877f2'
    )
    ->linkedin(
        icon: 'fab-linkedin-in',
        color: '#0077b5',
        tooltip: 'Share on LinkedIn network'
    )
    ->reddit(
        color: '#ff4500',
        tooltip: 'Post to Reddit'
    )

Using pure dedicated methods

SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
        ->facebookIcon('fab-facebook-f')
        ->facebookTooltip('Share this amazing post on Facebook')
        ->facebookColor('#1877f2')
    ->linkedin()
        ->linkedinColor('#0077b5')
        ->linkedinTooltip('Share on LinkedIn network')
    ->reddit()
        ->redditColor('#ff4500')

Mixed approach (Maximum Flexibility)

SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook(icon: 'fab-facebook-f')  // Named parameter for icon
        ->facebookTooltip('Custom tooltip')  // Dedicated method for tooltip
        ->facebookColor('#1877f2')           // Dedicated method for color
    ->linkedin(color: '#0077b5')        // Named parameter for color
        ->linkedinIcon('fab-linkedin-in')    // Dedicated method for icon
    ->reddit()                          // Enable with all defaults
        ->redditColor('#ff4500')

Conditional/Dynamic Configuration

$action = SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin();
 
// Conditionally customize based on user preferences
if ($user->prefers_custom_colors) {
    $action->facebookColor('#custom-color')
           ->linkedinColor('#another-color');
}
 
if ($user->is_premium) {
    $action->reddit()
           ->redditTooltip('Premium user sharing');
}

#Customizing the action

Any method available to Filament action can be used, for example, to use an icon instead of button for share action:

use Tapp\FilamentSocialShare\Actions\SocialShareAction;
 
 SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->iconButton(),

#Executing code before or after the action

The before() and after() methods could be used to execute some extra logic before or after the action:

before() - Runs code before the main sharing action occurs.
after() - Runs code after the sharing modal is displayed/processed.

Example: Send Notification After Sharing

use Filament\Notifications\Notification;
use Tapp\FilamentSocialShare\Actions\SocialShareAction;
 
SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin()
    ->after(function () {
        // Send notification after user opens share modal
        Notification::make()
            ->title('Share options displayed')
            ->body('The social sharing options have been presented to the user.')
            ->success()
            ->send();
    }),

Example: Log Sharing Activity

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Log;
use Tapp\FilamentSocialShare\Actions\SocialShareAction;
 
SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin()
    ->before(function () {
        // Log that user initiated sharing
        Log::info('User opened social share modal', [
            'user_id' => auth()->id(),
            'timestamp' => now(),
            'url' => request()->url()
        ]);
    })
    ->after(function () {
        // Log completion
        Log::info('Social share modal displayed successfully');
    })

Example: Custom Authorization Check

use Filament\Notifications\Notification;
use Tapp\FilamentSocialShare\Actions\SocialShareAction;
 
SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin()
    ->before(function () {
        // Check if user has permission to share
        if (!auth()->user()->can('share_content')) {
            Notification::make()
                ->title('Permission Denied')
                ->body('You do not have permission to share content.')
                ->danger()
                ->send();
 
            throw new \Exception('Unauthorized sharing attempt');
        }
    })

Example: Track Analytics

use Tapp\FilamentSocialShare\Actions\SocialShareAction;
 
SocialShareAction::make()
    ->facebook()
    ->linkedin()
    ->before(function () {
        // Track sharing intent in analytics
        event('social_share_initiated', [
            'user_id' => auth()->id(),
            'content_type' => 'article',
            'content_id' => request()->route('id')
        ]);
    })
