Usage examples

• Client Usage Example
• Model Usage Example
• Route Model Binding Example
• Multiple connections Example

##Client Usage Example Here you can see standart Laravel Controller that uses our service.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Clusterpoint\Client; // use our package.

class ExampleController extends Controller
{
    public function getIndex() {
		
		$cp = new Client(); // by defualt uses 'default' connection name from ./config/clusterpoint.php
		
		// Set the collection to work with to initalize the query builder for it.
		$collection = $cp->database("database.collection");

		// Build your query
		$results = $collection->where('color', 'red')
			->where('availability', true)
			->limit(5)
			->groupBy('category')
			->orderBy('price')
			->select(['name', 'color', 'price', 'category'])
			->get();
			
		// Access your results
		return $results[0]->price;
	}
}

##Model Usage Example First create your model in app folder:

<?php

namespace App;

use Clusterpoint\Model;

class Example extends Model
{
	protected $db = "database.collection"; // set your databse and collection names
	//protected $primaryKey = "custom_id"; // If you want to define specific specific primary key, default = _id
}

Now you can use model inside the controller.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Example; // use your model.

class ExampleController extends Controller
{	
    public function getIndex() {
		$example = Example::where('price', '>', 200)->first();
		
		$example->price = 300;
		$example->save();
		
		return view('example', compact('example'));
	}
}

##Route Model Binding Example We will use model created above to show this example, first bind your model in app/Http/routes.php file like this:

<?php

Route::model('example', 'App\Example');
Route::get('/examples/{example}', 'ExampleController@getIndex');

Now if you pass the primary key value in your url like myweb.dev/examples/42 you can access the document already inside your controller like this.

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Example;

class ExampleController extends Controller
{
	public function getIndex($example) {
		$id = $example->_id; // value is 42
		$name = $example->name;
		$price = $example->price;
		return view('example', compact('name','price'));
	}
}

##Multiple connections Example You can set multiple connections and use what you needed in the Model.

First add a connection setting array in the main config file config/clusterpoint.php. For example a connection named "test"

<?php

return array(
  "default" => array(
    'host' => env('CP_HOST', 'https://api-eu.clusterpoint.com/v4'),
    'account_id' => env('CP_ID', ''),
    'username' => env('CP_USERNAME', ''),
    'password' => env('CP_PASSWORD', ''),
  ),
  "test" => array(
    'host' => env('CP1_HOST', 'https://api-eu.clusterpoint.com/v4'),
    'account_id' => env('CP1_ID', ''),
    'username' => env('CP1_USERNAME', ''),
    'password' => env('CP1_PASSWORD', ''),
  )
);

However we recommend you to add your credentials to your .env file in the laravel project root directory.

CP1_HOST=https://api-eu.clusterpoint.com/v4  
CP1_ID=42  
CP1_USERNAME=myusername@clusterpoint.com  
CP1_PASSWORD=mypassword  

Now You can use the connection in Your Model:

<?php

namespace App;

use Clusterpoint\Model;

class Example extends Model
{
	protected $connection = "test";
}
