Installation

composer require jwohlfert23/laravel-api-query

Usage

This package is implemented as a trait, which provides the buildFromRequest scope.

use Jwohlfert23\LaravelApiQuery\BuildQueryFromRequest;

class Post {
    use BuildQueryFromRequest;
}

Post::buildFromRequest()->get();

?sort=-id,name

is the same as:

Post::orderByDesc('id')->orderBy('name');

?filter[name]=Bobby&filter[author.name][contains]=Bob

is the same as:

Post::where('name', 'Bobby')->whereHas('author', function($q) {
    $q->where('name', 'like', '%Bob%');
});

Note: this package doesn't use "whereHas", but rather performs left joins internally. However, the results should be the same as the above code.

Filters default to using the "equal" operator. These are the operators available to use in filtering (contains is use above).

• eq (=)
• gt (>)
• gte (>=)
• lt (<)
• lte (<=)
• contains

?with=author,comments

is the same as

Post::with('author','comments');
