Nova 4 support (needs testing)

[tanerkay]

Thanks @mikebronner for the package, has been of great use so far! I've tried to tackle the changes necessary for Nova 4.x, and hoping for some feedback and testing help to get this ready to go.

Changes necessary to support:

• Nova 3.x -> 4.x
  • Vue 2 -> 3
    • vue2-leaflet -> @vue-leaflet/vue-leaflet
    • brought in vue2-leaflet-geosearch as a first party component as the vendor version only supports Vue 2.x

Other changes:

• maintain support for Laravel 8.x
• upgrade other outdated NPM packages

Issues:

• I haven't tested this PR thoroughly nor deployed it in production anywhere. In particular, the Geosearch part has not been tested.
• I'm also running a modified version of the field which uses a geospatial POINT field rather than a separate latitude and longitude field, but have tried to keep those changes separate from the PR.
• In my experience, for some reason the npm runners would dump some extra files into the dist/ directory, e.g. node_modules_leaflet_dist_images_marker-icon-2x_png.js. These are files that would otherwise be loaded in through promises. My workaround was to import some of the files preemptively, but it would be great to understand the root cause.

The workaround was adding the following to the top of resources/js/field.js:

import 'leaflet/dist/leaflet-src.esm';
import 'leaflet/dist/images/marker-icon-2x.png';
import 'leaflet/dist/images/marker-icon.png';
import 'leaflet/dist/images/marker-shadow.png';

@mikebronner
hi, any update?

I wanted to add an ability to draw and store polygons but I'm waiting to accept this PR

[mikebronner]

Hi sorry for the delay, guys. I haven't been using Nova anymore for a while. Let me merge this, but as I cannot test this myself, please let me know if it breaks anything, so I can revert it.

@mostafaznv that is cool functionality, for sure, but it goes beyond the scope of what this field is meant for. I would recommend creating your own field for marking on a map. I just wanted to let you know before you started work on a PR for that.

@mikebronner it does not work at all! the field does not show!

[mikebronner]

Thanks for the feedback, I'll revert it.

[mikebronner]

I'm open to another PR that introduces Nova 4 support.

yeap, because of ncaught Error: Cannot find module 'laravel-nova'

I've tried to fix it. but due to some SSR features in vue-leaflet (vue 3) plugin, It didn't work as I expected.

So I've decided to create a new package based on other map libraries with some new features.

If will be published soon.
After that, maybe I put some extra time to make good PR for this package too.

Could you share with it, if possible
