Repository pattern package for Laravel framework.

Version compatibility

Laravel

Requirements

• PHP 8.3 or higher
• Laravel 10.x or higher

Installation

You can install this package by composer:

composer require vdhoangson/laravel-repository

For more configuration, you can publish configuration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-repository-config

Or using the provider:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider "Vdhoangson\LaravelRepository\Providers\LaravelRepositoryServiceProvider"

Implementation

To use Repositories, create repository class that:

• Extend BaseRepository class
• Implements interface that extend BaseInterface

For example, this is implementation of repository for Example entity:

ExampleRepositoryInterface:

interface ExampleRepositoryInterface extends BaseInterface
{}

ExampleRepository class. This class has to implement entity() method, that return namespace of entity that will be used by repository.

class ExampleRepository extends BaseRepository implements ExampleRepositoryInterface
{
    /**
     * Model entity class that will be use in repository
     *
     * @return BaseInterface
     */
    public function entity(): string
    {
        return Example::class;
    }

}

Using repositories

To use Repository in controller or other class you can use dependency injection or Container. Below is sample code of using service in controller.

class ExampleController extends Controller {

    /**
     * @var ExampleRepositoryInterface $exampleRepository
     */
    protected $exampleRepository;

    public function __construct(ExampleRepositorynterface $exampleRepository){
        $this->exampleRepository = $exampleRepository;
    }

    ....
}

• update(int $id, array $parameters) - update entity by ID

Caching

Information: In order to use Caching feature in repository, you must use cache driver that support tags. Actually "file" and "database" drivers are not supported.

More information in in laravel documentation.

You can user criteria with this functions, and results will be cached.

Repository automatically flush cache, when method create(), updateOrCreate(), update(), delete() is call.

Skipping cache

To force fetch data from database, skipping cached data, use skipCache() method. Example:

$this->repository->skipCache()->findWhere(...)

Disable cache

To quick disable cache i.ex for debugging, set REPOSITORY_CACHE variable to false in .env

REPOSITORY_CACHE=false

Use scopeQuery

$data = $this->repository->scopeQuery(function($query){
    return $query->orderBy('sort_order','asc');
})->all();
