    ->height(400)
    ->withToolbar()
    ->castState()
    ->autoFormat()
    ->dark()
    ->rules(['yaml'])
    ->placeholder("# paste your YAML here\n")

#Table Action (View YAML in Modal)

Use the ViewYamlAction to add a button in your table that opens a modal with the YAML content displayed in a read-only CodeMirror editor.

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentYamlEditor\Actions\ViewYamlAction;

Filament v4 / v5 (branches 2.x and 3.x):

->recordActions([
    ViewYamlAction::make()
        ->column('config')       // required: the model attribute to display
        ->editorHeight(500)      // optional, default 400
        ->dark(),                // optional
])

Filament v3 (branch 1.x):

->actions([
    ViewYamlAction::make()
        ->column('config'),
])

#Infolist Entry

Displays YAML content in a read-only CodeMirror editor.

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentYamlEditor\Infolists\Components\YamlEditorEntry;

YamlEditorEntry::make('config')
    ->height(400)
    ->dark()

#Eloquent Cast

Use the YamlCast to automatically convert between YAML strings and arrays in your Eloquent models:

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentYamlEditor\Casts\YamlCast;

class Setting extends Model
{
    protected $casts = [
        'config' => YamlCast::class,
    ];
}

#Validation Rule

Use the ValidYaml rule directly or via the yaml string alias:

use JeffersonGoncalves\FilamentYamlEditor\Rules\ValidYaml;

// As a rule object
$request->validate([
    'config' => ['required', new ValidYaml],
]);

// As a string alias (registered by the service provider)
$request->validate([
    'config' => ['required', 'yaml'],
]);
