Use gallery images as data type in other modules

1. Open your module's model (e.g. /Models/Shop.php) and implement \Neonbug\Gallery\Traits\GalleryImagesTraitInterface interface.

   Example:

<?php namespace App\Packages\Shop\Models;

class Shop extends \Neonbug\Common\Models\BaseModel implements \Neonbug\Gallery\Traits\GalleryImagesTraitInterface {
	
	public $gallery_images = []; // keys are id languages, then field names
	public static function getTableNameForGalleryImages() { return 'shop'; } // from GalleryImagesTraitInterface
	public static function getUploadsFolderNameForGalleryImages() { return 'shop'; } // from GalleryImagesTraitInterface

1. Use trait \Neonbug\Gallery\Traits\GalleryImagesTrait in your module's ServiceProvider (e.g. /Providers/ServiceProvider.php.

   Example:

<?php namespace App\Packages\Shop\Providers;

class ServiceProvider extends \Neonbug\Common\Providers\BaseServiceProvider {
	
	use \Neonbug\Gallery\Traits\GalleryImagesTrait;

1. Add a field (or multiple) with type gallery_admin::add_fields.gallery_images in your module's config file (e.g. /config/shop.php).

   Example:

<?php
return [
    ...
    'add' => [
        [
            'name' => 'images', 
            'type' => 'gallery_admin::add_fields.gallery_images', 
            'value' => '', 
        ], 
    ], 
    ...
];

1. To load images, use getImages method on GalleryRepository. It returns a collection of GalleryImage objects.

   Example:

<?php
...
$images = App::make('\Neonbug\Gallery\Repositories\GalleryRepository')->getImages(
	'shop', // table name
	'images', // field name
	$item->id_shop, // item id
	null // language id (or null, if this field is language independent)
);

1. To display images in views, use getPath method on GalleryImage to get the image path.

   Example:

@foreach ($images as $image)
    <?php
	$image_path = $image->getPath(
        'shop', // table name
        'images', // 
        $item->id_shop, // item id
        0 // language id (or 0, if this field is language independent)
    );
	if (!file_exists($image_path))
	{
		continue;
	}
    ?>
    <img src="{!! Croppa::url($image_path, 420, 280) !!}" />
@endforeach
