Entity Auditing for Doctrine in Laravel

This is a fork of the SimpleThings EntityAudit project, re-worked for usage with Laravel and the Laravel-Doctrine package. It maintains the same style of working, generating a revision for all tagged entities.

Need a Symfony based version? Check out the original SimpleThings EntityAudit.

To protect from conflicts it has been re-namespaced and some internals changed.

Installation

• composer require somnambulist/laravel-doctrine-entity-audit
• add the ServiceProvider to your config/app.php after the Doctrine provider
• ./artisan vendor:publish
• update the config file and then generate the audit tables:
  • ./artisan doctrine:migrations:diff
  • ./artisan doctrine:migrations:migrate

Unit Tests

The existing unit tests have been ported over excluding the Gedmo soft-deleteable. To run the unit tests, ensure the dev dependencies have been installed:

• vendor/bin/phpunit

Todo

• refactor and simplify the listener internals
• remove any remaining deprecated Doctrine API calls

From SimpleThings:

• currently only works with auto-increment databases
• proper metadata mapping is necessary, allow to disable versioning for fields and associations.
• support Joined-Table-Inheritance
• support many-to-many auditing
