Laravel SAB Hero Estimator

A comprehensive painting project estimator package for Laravel applications. This package provides a complete solution for collecting project details, calculating estimates, and managing painting project quotes with support for both interior and exterior projects.

Installation

1. Install via Composer

composer require fuelviews/laravel-sabhero-estimator

2. Run Installation Command

php artisan sabhero-estimator:install

This command will:

• Publish configuration file
• Publish and run migrations (including default data)
• Publish assets (house style images)
• Optionally publish views for customization

3. Configure Tailwind CSS

Add the package views to your tailwind.config.js:

export default {
    content: [
        // ... your existing paths
        './vendor/fuelviews/laravel-sabhero-estimator/resources/**/*.blade.php',
    ],
    // ... rest of your config
}

4. Setup FilamentPHP Integration

Register the plugin in your FilamentPHP panel provider:

use Fuelviews\SabHeroEstimator\Filament\EstimatorPlugin;

public function panel(Panel $panel): Panel
{
    return $panel
        // ... other configuration
        ->plugins([
            EstimatorPlugin::make(),
        ]);
}

5. Add the Estimator Component

Add the Livewire component to any Blade template:

@livewire('estimator::project-estimator')

Installation Options

Clean Installation

Remove old migrations before installing:

php artisan sabhero-estimator:install --fresh

Force Overwrite

Overwrite existing files:

php artisan sabhero-estimator:install --force

Silent Installation

php artisan sabhero-estimator:install --fresh --force --no-interaction

Manual Installation

For complete control over the installation process:

# 1. Publish config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="sabhero-estimator-config"

# 2. Publish migrations
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="sabhero-estimator-migrations"

# 3. Publish assets (images)
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="sabhero-estimator-assets"

# 4. Run migrations
php artisan migrate

# 5. (Optional) Publish views for customization
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="sabhero-estimator-views"

Configuration

The configuration file is published to config/sabhero-estimator.php:

Database Tables

'table' => [
    'prefix' => 'estimator_', // Customize table prefix
],

Form Endpoints

'form_endpoints' => [
    'production_url' => config('forms.forms.free_estimate.production_url'),
    'development_url' => config('forms.forms.free_estimate.development_url'),
],

Media Storage

'media' => [
    'disk' => 'public', // Use any Laravel filesystem disk (public, s3, etc.)
],

Usage

Basic Implementation

The package provides a complete multi-step estimation wizard:

1. Welcome - Introduction and project type selection
2. Contact Info - Customer details collection
3. Measurements - Project-specific measurements and options
4. Review - Final estimate display and submission

FilamentPHP Admin Resources

Access these resources in your admin panel:

• Projects - View and manage submitted estimates
• Rates - Configure pricing for different surface types
• Multipliers - Manage house styles, floors, conditions, coverage
• Settings - Customize deviation percentages and labels

API Usage

use Fuelviews\SabHeroEstimator\SabHeroEstimator;

$estimator = app(SabHeroEstimator::class);

// Get surface types for a project
$surfaces = $estimator->getSurfaceTypes('interior', 'partial');

// Get house styles with images
$houseStyles = $estimator->getHouseStyles();

// Get configuration options
$floorOptions = $estimator->getFloorOptions();
$paintConditions = $estimator->getPaintConditionOptions();
$coverageOptions = $estimator->getCoverageOptions();

// Manage settings
$deviationPercentage = $estimator->getDeviationPercentage();
$estimator->setSetting('key', 'value');

// Work with images
$imageUrl = $estimator->getImageUrl('pbg-ranch-1.jpg');

Model Usage

use Fuelviews\SabHeroEstimator\Models\Project;
use Fuelviews\SabHeroEstimator\Models\Rate;
use Fuelviews\SabHeroEstimator\Models\Multiplier;

// Query projects
$projects = Project::with(['areas.surfaces'])->latest()->get();
$interiorProjects = Project::where('project_type', 'interior')->get();
$premiumProjects = Project::where('estimated_high', '>', 5000)->get();

// Work with rates and multipliers
$rates = Rate::where('project_type', 'interior')->get();
$houseStyles = Multiplier::houseStyle()->get();

Troubleshooting

Images Not Loading

If images are showing duplicate paths:

1. Re-run migrations to fix image paths
2. Ensure images are published to the correct location
3. Check your media disk configuration

php artisan migrate:fresh
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="sabhero-estimator-assets" --force

Migration Issues

# Check migration status
php artisan migrate:status | grep estimator

# Clean reinstall
php artisan sabhero-estimator:install --fresh --force

Table Not Found

# Verify tables exist
php artisan tinker --execute="DB::table('estimator_rates')->count()"

# If not found, reinstall
php artisan sabhero-estimator:install --fresh

Advanced Topics

Calculation Logic

Interior Projects

Full Interior:

Base Cost = Total Square Footage × Interior Rate
Extras = Sum of selected extras (as multipliers)
Final Cost = Base Cost × (1 + Extras)

Partial Interior:

Cost = Sum of (Surface Area × Surface Rate) for each surface

Exterior Projects

Base Cost = Total Square Footage × Exterior Rate
Style/Floor/Condition = Applied additively
Coverage = Applied multiplicatively
Final Cost = ((Base Cost + Additive Multipliers) × Coverage)

Estimate Ranges

Low Estimate = Final Cost × (1 - Deviation %)
High Estimate = Final Cost × (1 + Deviation %)

Database Schema

The package creates these tables:

• estimator_projects - Main project records
• estimator_areas - Project areas (partial interior)
• estimator_surfaces - Surface details within areas
• estimator_rates - Pricing rates with default data
• estimator_multipliers - Calculation multipliers with defaults
• estimator_settings - Configuration with default settings
