README

congraph/eav is the core content-model package in Congraph. It provides entity types, attribute sets, attributes, entities, and field handling.

Responsibilities

• entity type CRUD
• attribute and attribute-set CRUD
• entity CRUD
• field-type behavior
• localized and workflow-aware entity handling
• repository queries for structured content

Installation

composer require congraph/eav

Laravel package provider:

• EavServiceProvider.php

Package relationships

eav depends on:

• core
• contracts
• filesystem
• locales
• workflows

It is the package that ties most of the content-model pieces together.

Typical usage

Use eav to define:

• entity types such as articles, pages, products, or cases
• attribute sets for those content types
• field definitions and field behavior
• stored entities with localized and workflow-aware fields

Search and delivery

eav is the canonical persistence layer.
When delivery/search is enabled through entity-elastic, this package still owns the source data model.

Development

Install dependencies

cd /Users/nikolap/git/np/congraph/packages/eav
composer update -W

Run tests

composer test
composer test:pgsql

The package has:

• integration tests
• field-type tests
• sample content-model tests

Contribution notes

• prefer PostgreSQL-safe and SQLite-safe query behavior
• avoid MySQL-only raw SQL
• field-type changes should include tests in both field-level and integration contexts
• when changing entity status logic, re-test entity-elastic
