Allows Laravel Eloquent models to implement a 'favorite' or 'remember' or 'follow' feature.
- Install the package via Composer
$ composer require manzadey/laravel-favorite- You need to publish the migration to create the
favoritestable:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\FavoriteServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"- After that, you need to run migrations:
php artisan migratePublishing the config file is optional:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\FavoriteServiceProvider" --tag="config"This is the default content of the config file:
declare(strict_types=1);
return [
/*
* The fully qualified class name of the favorite model.
*/
'model' => \Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\Models\Favorite::class,
];Your User model should import the Favoriteability trait, FavoriteabilityContract implements interface and use it, that trait allows the user to favorite the models.
(see an example below):
use Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\Traits\Favoriteability;
use Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\Contracts\FavoriteabilityContract;
class User extends Authenticatable implements FavoriteabilityContract;
{
use Favoriteability;
}Your models should import the Favoriteable trait, FavoriteableContract implements interface and use it, that trait has the methods that you'll use to allow the model be favoriteable.
In all the examples I will use the Post model as the model that is 'Favoriteable', that's for example proposes only.
(see an example below):
use Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\Traits\Favoriteable;
use Manzadey\LaravelFavorite\Contracts\FavoriteableContract;
class Post extends Model implements FavoriteableContract
{
use Favoriteable;
}That's it ... your model is now "favoriteable"! Now the User can favorite models that have the favoriteable trait.
The models can be favorite with and without an authenticated user (see examples below):
If a param is passed in the favorite method, then the model will assume the user with that user model.
$user = User::first();
$post = Post::find(1);
$post->addFavorite($user); // user with that id added to favorites this post
$post->removeFavorite($user); // user with that id removed from favorites this post
$post->toggleFavorite($user); // user with that id toggles the favorite status from this postThe user model can also add to favorites and remove from favorites:
$user = User::first();
$post = Post::first();
$user->addFavorite($post); // The user added to favorites this post
$user->removeFavorite($post); // The user removed from favorites this post
$user->toggleFavorite($post); // The user toggles the favorite status from this postA user can return the objects he marked as favorite.
You just need to pass the class in the getFavorite() method in the User model.
$user = Auth::user();
$user->getFavorite(Post::class, Article::class); // returns a collection with the Posts the User marked as favoriteYou can return the users who marked this object, you just need to call the favoriteBy() method in the object
$post = Post::find(1);
$post->favoriteBy(); // returns a collection with the Users that marked the post as favorite.You can check if the Auth user have already favorite an object, you just need to call the isFavorite() method in the object
$post = Post::find(1);
$post->isFavorite(); // returns a boolean with true or false.The package have integrated testing, so everytime you make a pull request your code will be tested.
