Laravel Categorizable

Latest Version on Packagist Software License Build Status StyleCI

Easily add the ability to category your Eloquent models in Laravel 5.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require mayoz/laravel-categorizable

Register the service provider in your config/app.php configuration file:

'providers' => [
    ...
    Mayoz\Categorizable\CategorizableServiceProvider::class,
    ...
];

You can publish the migration with:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Mayoz\Categorizable\CategorizableServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"

The migration has been published you can create the categories and categorizable tables. You are feel free for added new fields that you need. After, run the migrations:

php artisan migrate

Usage

Suppose, you have the Post model as follows:

<?php

namespace App;

use Mayoz\Categorizable\Categorizable;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Post extends Model
{
    use Categorizable;
}

Associate new categories for the Post model:

$post = Post::find(1);

$post->categorize([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);

return $post;

Now, the post model is associated with categories ids of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Remove the existing category association for the Post model:

$post = Post::find(1);

$post->uncategorize([3, 5]);

return $post;

The post model is associated with categories ids of 1, 2 and 4.

Rearrange the category relationships for the Post model:

$post = Post::find(1);

$post->recategorize([1, 5]);

return $post;

The post model is associated with categories ids of 1 and 5.

Extending

I suggest, you always extend the Category model to define your relationships directly. Create you own Category model:

<?php

namespace App;

use Mayoz\Categorizable\Category as BaseCategory;

class Category extends BaseCategory
{
    /**
     * Get all posts for the relation.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Relations\MorphedByMany
     */
    public function posts()
    {
        return $this->categorized(Post::class);
    }
}

You publish the package config:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Mayoz\Categorizable\CategorizableServiceProvider" --tag="config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

<?php

return [

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Model Namespace
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | Change these values when you need to extend the default category model
    | or if the user model needs to be served in a different namespace.
    |
    */

    'category' => App\Category::class,

];

That is all. Now let's play for relationship query with the category.

/**
 * Respond the post
 *
 * @param  \App\Category  $category
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function index(Category $category)
{
    return $category->posts()->paginate(10);
}

If we did not extend the Category model, as had to use;

/**
 * Respond the post
 *
 * @param  \App\Category  $category
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function index(Category $category)
{
    return $category->categorize(Post::class)->paginate(10);
}
