README

This is a library created to provide an easy way to develop a Model's CRUD in laravel.
It provides several traits and classes to allow you to create Controllers that handle automaticaly pagination and create JSON responses in a standard format. Also, it provides a set of traits to implement what we call Model driven Repositories, which allows to have your Models act as data Repositories that can handle filtering, pagination, CRUD operations as well as provide an easy way to create your own custom operations and validations.

Requirements

This package requires:

• PHP 7.2+
• Laravel 7+ or Lumen 7+

Install

The compatibility with Laravel is as following

To add dependency to a Laravel 7.x project, run

composer require asp-devteam/laravel-repository "^7.0"

Laravel

Register Service Provider

Append the following line to the providers key in config/app.php to register the package:

ASP\Repository\RepositoryServiceProvider::class,

The package supports auto-discovery, so if you use Laravel 5.5 or later you may skip registering the service provider and facades as they will be registered automatically.

Publishing resources

To publish the available translations and config to your application, for customization, just run:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=repository.translations
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=repository.config

Usage

Write a few lines about the usage of this package.

This documentation assumes some knowledge of how Fractal works.

Extending ASP\Repository\Base\Controller

The package has a Controller class, which implements a middleware that handles pagination on index:

use ASP\Repository\Base\Controller;

class YourController extends Controller
{
}

Using Model Repository

Option 1: Using the provided Repository

To use the Repository you can use it in your model class:

use ASP\Repository\Traits\Repository;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use Repository;
}

This will make available to you several methods:

• getAllRecords(Filter $filters = null, array $pagination = null)
• getRecordById($id)
• createRecord(Request $request)
• updateRecordById($id, Request $request)
• deleteRecordById($id, Request $request)

Option 2: Creating your own Repository

You can also extend the Repository and add your own methods, this also allows you to use Model Validators:

use ASP\Repository\Traits\Repository;
...
trait YourRepository
{
    use Repository;


}

use ASP\Repository\Traits\Repository;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use YourRepository, YourModelValidator;
}

Using Validators

use ASP\Repository\Traits\Validator;

trait YourModelValidator
{
    use Validator;

    /**
     * @return void
     */
    protected static function boot()
    {
        parent::boot();

        self::setBaseRules(
            [
                'name' => [
                    'laravel rules here'
                ],
            ]
        );
    }

    /**
     * @return array
     */
    protected static function getCustomRules()
    {
        $rules = self::getBaseRules();

        return array_merge(
            $rules,
            [
              'new rules'
            ]
        );
    }
}

Using Filters

To filter your Model queries you can extend ASP\Repository\Base\Filter:

use ASP\Repository\Base\Filter;

class PetFilters extends Filter
{
  public function <filterName>(<$parameters>)
