Active State

Simple Laravel Active Checker For Request Url

Sometimes you want to check the request url is active or not For the following purpose. Especially for backend sidebar.

Basically we do like this.

<li class="sidebar {{ Request::is('post') ? 'active' : 'no' }} ">Post</li>
<li class="sidebar {{ Request::is('page') ? 'active' : 'no' }} ">Page</li>

It would be nice if we can make shorter. right ?

<li class="sidebar {{ active_check('post') }} ">Post</li>
<li class="sidebar {{ active_check('page') }} ">Page</li>

Install with composer:

Laravel 5.4 and above

composer require pyaesone17/active-state:^1.1.1

And add the service provider in config/app.php

'providers' => [
    ........,
    Pyaesone17\ActiveState\ActiveStateServiceProvider::class,
]

If you want to use the facade, add this to your facades in config/app.php

'aliases' => [
    ........,
    'Active' => Pyaesone17\ActiveState\ActiveFacade::class,
]

To publish configuration file

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Pyaesone17\ActiveState\ActiveStateServiceProvider"

Usage

It will check against whether your request is www.url.com/data If the request match this url . It will return the default value from config file. The default value for true state is "active" and false is "no". You can configure on active.php .

{{ Active::check('data') }} 

To check the exact url.

{{ Active::check('data') }} // check request is www.url.com/data

To check the url deeply , just pass the true value as second parameter.

{{ Active::check('data',true) }}  // check request is www.url.com/data || www.url.com/data/*

OR

{{ Active::check(['data','post','categories']) }}  // check request is www.url.com/data || www.url.com/post || www.url.com/categories

{{ Active::check(['data','post','categories'],true) }} // check request is www.url.com/data/* || // check request is www.url.com/post/* || www.url.com/categories/*

To change the return value in runtime, just pass the the third and fourth parameter.

{{ Active::check('data',true,'truth','fake') }} // it will override the value from config file.

Or you can even use helper function.

{{ active_check('data') }}

You can also use this package for conditional displaying data. In some case, You need to render some part of template depends on request.
