Introduction

Streams UI provides an interface for building data-driven, highly configurable control panels that can be integrated with any admin panel or UI kit.

A sensible and generic control panel UI theme is available by default.

Routing

You can use the the routes/cp.php file to define additional routes for the control panel. Routes defined there will be automatically prefixed and grouped.

Additionally, you can use the Route facade and cp method to define control panel routes.

Route::cp('custom/example/{entry}', 'Your\Controller@method');

Configuration

Before continueing please enable the control panel.

Components

Multiple stream-enhanced components are used to assemble the control panel.

Navigation

Navigation sections define the basic functional structure of your control panel.

Defining Navigation

// streams/cp/navigation/users.json
{
    "title": "Users"
}

Available Properties

Shortcuts

Shortcuts define globally displayed, highly configurable, actionable items.

Basic Example

Dropdowns

// streams/cp/shortcuts/profile.json
{
    "sort_order": 99,
    "image": "/user/avatar",
    "dropdown": {
        "profile": {
            "text": "Visit Website",
            "attributes.href": "/",
            "target": "_blank"
        }
    }
}

Layouts

Layouts define how to render the main content area of the control panel.

Themes

Themes define globally accessible variables for the UI. Themes are defined by the cp.themes stream:

Extending

By publishing the Streams UI package streams you can customize anything you need.
