Event visibility

What events are shown by default?

Events for Nova resources the current user is not authorized to see due to Laravel policies are excluded from the calendar automatically.

All instances of a Nova resource will be shown if no Laravel policy is defined for the underlying Eloquent model or if the static authorizable method on the Nova resource class returns false, unless you hide specific instances manually by implementing the excludeResource method on your CalendarDataProvider; see below.

Hiding individual events

You can exclude specific instances of Nova resources from the calendar by implementing the excludeResource method on your CalendarDataProvider.

For example, if you want to hide events for resources with an Eloquent model that have an is_finished property that is true, you could write:

use Laravel\Nova\Resource as NovaResource;

protected function excludeResource(NovaResource $resource) : bool
{
    return $resource->model()->is_finished;
}

In older versions, this method was simply called exclude. That method still works but is deprecated now.
