Installation

Composer

Install via composer using composer require jayceedaily/laravel-traversify

Model setup

use Traversify/Traversify;
use Traversify/Traversable;

use Eloquent;

class Task extends Eloquent implements Traversable {
	use Traversify;

    // Configure the fields to be searched
    protected $search = [
        'name', 'description'
    ];

    // Configure the fields to be sorted
    protected $sort = [
        'created_at', 'name', 'completed_at'
    ];

    // Configure the fields to be filtered
    protected $filter = [
        'type_id', 'status'
    ];
    
}

Controller Setup

use MyModel

class MyController {

     public function index() {

          return MyModel::traversify();

     }
}

Configure

To use a search like function, you must create a static variables and assign an array containing an array of the fields that needed to be searched. These are the following:

• $searchables
• $filterables
• $orderables
• $rangables

Search

This uses a %keyword% approach in sql. Traversify currently does not support scout or any advance search engine. For basic usage, this is more than enough.

use Traversify/Traversify;
    
    class MyModel {
    
    	use Traversify;
    
        public static $searchables = ['title', 'description']
    }

Filter

Use filter for foreign key values of tables. This will only pull data whose foreign key values matches the requested filter.

use Traversify/Traversify;
    
    class MyModel {
    
    	use Traversify;
    
        public static $filterables = ['status_id', 'is_active']
    }

Order / Sort

Can sort fields with number, letters, but is commonly used on dates which is also supported.

use Traversify/Traversify;
    
    class MyModel {
    
    	use Traversify;
    
        public static $orderables = ['created_at', 'is_active']
    }

Range

Show records only that has values within the requested values. Requires 2 values, start & end.

use Traversify/Traversify;
    
    class MyModel {
    
    	use Traversify;
    
        public static $rangables = ['created_at', 'price']
    }

Custom

For added custom query/s you can pass a query function inside traversify(). This is then combined to the existing queries that traversify already uses.

use MyModel;

class MyController {

     public function index()
     {
          return MyModel::traversify(function($q){
               
               $q->where('is_active', TRUE);
               
          });
     }
}
