Build Eloquent update queries from put API requests

This package allows you to update fields and relations based on a request without losing data not send.

Installation

This package can be used in Laravel 6.0 or higher.

You can install the package via composer:

composer require latevaweb/laravel-query-updater

The service provider will automatically get registered. Or you may manually add the service provider in your config/app.php file:

'providers' => [
    // ...
    LaTevaWeb\QueryUpdater\QueryUpdaterServiceProvider::class,
];

Basic usage

Update model field based on a put or patch request: /users params: ['name' => 'Marc']:

use LaTevaWeb\QueryUpdater\QueryUpdater;

public function __invoke(Request $request, User $user) {
    QueryUpdater::for($user)
        ->updatedFields(['name'])
        ->save();
        
    // update
}

Update model field but keep stored value if parameter is empty or null

use LaTevaWeb\QueryUpdater\QueryUpdater;
use LaTevaWeb\QueryUpdater\KeepStored;

public function __invoke(Request $request, User $user) {
    QueryUpdater::for($user)
        ->updatedFields([
            KeepStored::field('name')
        ])
        ->save();
        
    // update
}

Extending filters

IF you have an special requirement that not fits with our filters KeepStored or SimpleFilter, you can create your own extending LaTevaWeb\QueryUpdater\Filter\AbstractFilter class.
