Laravel Flywheel
================

[](#laravel-flywheel)

This is a wrapper class for the Jamesmoss/flywheel package.

A laravel facade for flat file documents
----------------------------------------

[](#a-laravel-facade-for-flat-file-documents)

This is a facade that can be used beside the default laravel database structure. Since this doesn't override Laravel's core database functionality you can use both at the same time.

installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require allenjd3\laravel-flywheel

```

Then add to your config/app file under application providers

```
'providers' => [
    ...
        /*
        * Package Service Providers...
        */
        Allenjd3\Flywheel\FlywheelServiceProvider::class,
    ...
]

```

If you want to use the Facade then add this to your aliases array

```
'aliases' => [
    ...
    'Flywheel' => Allenjd3\Flywheel\facades\Flywheel::class,
    ...

]

```

Methods
-------

[](#methods)

### Config

[](#config)

This method is optional if you want to change either the table name or storage path

Example- (optional)

```
$flywheel = Flywheel::config($name, $path);
$flywheel->findAll();

```

### Create

[](#create)

This method creates a new Document and saves it to your path. You can use laravel validation on the request before running this.

```
$id = Flywheel::create($array)

```

### Update / findById

[](#update--findbyid)

This method updates a post. You must find the post by id before updating it.

```
$doc = Flywheel::findById($id);
$doc->param = "new value";
Flywheel::update($doc);

```

### findAll

[](#findall)

This method finds all documents within the given configuration path

```
$docs = Flywheel::findAll();

```

### Delete

[](#delete)

This method deletes a post that matches a given id.

```
Flywheel::delete($id)

```

### Where / get

[](#where--get)

This method returns a query object that can be chained

```
$docs = Flywheel::where('title', '==', 'Shiver Me Timbers')->get();

```

Get ends the queries and executes the result.

### limit, orderBy, andWhere

[](#limit-orderby-andwhere)

```
$docs = Flywheel::limit($count, $offset)->get();
$docs = Flywheel::orderBy('fieldname ASC|DESC')->get();

```

andWhere is a wrapper for additional where queries.

All types of queries, (where, limit, orderby, andWhere) can be chained before calling get. Example-

```
$docs = Flywheel::where('title','==','Most Excellent')
                ->limit(5,2)
                ->orderBy('title ASC')
                ->get();

```

### First

[](#first)

If you only want to return a single document you can run first instead of get

```
$doc = Flywheel::where('title', '==', 'Most Excellent')->first();

```

All returned values can be returned and will return a json string.

```
return $docs;

```

If you want to return a laravel response object with application/json headers then you can run

```
return $docs->toJson();

```

or

```
return $docs->toArray();

```

of course you can always pass the variable into a Blade template

```
return view('template.name', compact('docs'));

```
