Laravel Data Carrier

Introduction

Provide an object as Facade to put all global variables togetther, clean your code. Normally we use it to passing variables from Controller to View.

And you can extend your formating method to help you format global data

Install Data Carrier

composer.json:

"require" : {
    "unisharp/laravel-datacarrier" : "~1.0"
}, 
"repositories": {
    "type": "git",
    "url": "https://github.com/UniSharp/laravel-datacarrier.git
}

save it and then

composer update    

Set ServiceProvider and Set Facade

in config/app.php:

• ServiceProfider

    Unisharp\DataCarrier\DataCarrierServiceProvider::class,
  

• alias

    'DataCarrier' => Unisharp\DataCarrier\DataCarrierFacade::class,
  

Usage

• get and set global data

  you can use Facade to set and get items

    \DataCarrier::set('key', 1); // ['a' => 1]
  
    \DataCarrier::get('key'); // 1
  
    // you can set a default value for get method
  
    \DataCarrier::get('key', 0); // if you cannot get it, it will return 0
  
    $var = d('key', 0); // Quick access by d() helper.
  
    \DataCarrier::all(); // it will get an array with all items
  

  you can also use dot to seperate array

    # [ 
    #    'a' => [
    #        'b' => 'value'
    #    ]
    # ]
  
    \DataCarrier::get('a.b'); // 'value'
  

• customize your format method (Add method into Data Carrier)

    \DataCarrier::extend('format', function ($data) {
        return number_format($data);
    })
  

• format your data

    # ['num' => '100000']
    \DataCarrier::format('num') // 100,000
  

Helper can use helper to set, get your data

• get, set function

    carrier_set('num', 1); // ['a' => 1]
    carrier_get('num'); // 1
  

• use carrier() to muniplate container

    carrier() // it's just return App::make('DataCarrier')
  

Another way to work with DataCarier

• get, set can replace by it

     carrier('num')->get();
     carrier('num')->set(5);
  

• extend your formating method

    carrier()->extend('format', function ($data) {
        return number_format($data);
    })
  

• use your formatting method

    carrier('num')->format(); // it will return formating result
