README

thin repository tries to make it simple to extend the beatiful chaining of conditions found in the laravel Eloquent querybuilder to a repository for this model.

Updating

• 1.0.0 -> 2.0.0: the condition and advancedCondition functions no longer take the name as parameter with a default value. They instead return an ElementRenamer which allows to specify a name via the named method.
  Example: $this->condition(function() {})->named('user');

Install

laravel thin repository is installed via composer

composer install svensp/laravel-thin-repository

Use

The core of laravel thi repository is the ThinRepository trait. It will give you the following methods on your repository:

• public find() - findOrFail with the current conditions
• public get() - get with the current conditions
• protected condition(Closure $condition, string $name = null) - set a condition through a lambda function
• protected advancedCondition(Condition $condition, string $name = null) - set a condition through an object implementing the Condition interface

Conditions will stack unless given a name. Conditions with the same name will override eachother.

<?php

/**
 * An example Repository using the ThinRepository trait to do its work
 **/
class ExampleRepository {
  use ThinRepository\ThinRepository;

  protected $modelClassPath = ExampleModel::class;

  public function forUser($userId)
  {
    $this->condition(function($builder) use ($userId) {
      $builder->where('user_id', $userId);
    });
    return $this;
  }

}

$example = app(ExampleRepository::class)->forUser(5)->find();
$examples = app(ExampleRepository::class)->forUser(5)->get();
