Installation ------------ [](#installation) Add this library using `composer require anthonyedmonds/laravel-find`. The service provider will be automatically registered. Publish the config file using `php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-find-config"` To customise the search bar component, export it using `php artisan vendor:publish --tag=laravel-find-views` How does this work? ------------------- [](#how-does-this-work) LaravelFind provides a `Finder` base class which you can extend. Fill out all of the abstract methods to provide users with a list of access filters, status filters, and sort options. The search results and filters can then be provided to the user via the `FinderOutput` class on your blade. The provided search bar template gives you an idea of how to present the various filters on the UI. `Finder` writes the last used search term and filters to the session, so that the page will remain as expected between page loads. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) ### Template [](#template) Set the `template` key in `config/laravel-find.php` to change the templates used when calling ``. The following templates are provided for out-of-the-box finding: - `default` => Unformatted; a good basis for full customisation - `govuk` => Designed for use with the [GOV.UK Laravel](https://github.com/AnthonyEdmonds/govuk-laravel) library - `bulma` => Designed for use with the [Bulma](https://bulma.io) CSS framework Upgrading from v5 ----------------- [](#upgrading-from-v5) Version 6+ is a fundamentally different program and should not be considered a direct upgrade. Rather than providing a single generic search area, LaravelFind is now tailored to make searching a single model easier. The `Finder` class provides everything needed to support a classic table of results, which will require some work on your part to implement the UI. Help and support ---------------- [](#help-and-support) You are welcome to raise any issues or questions on GitHub. If you wish to contribute to this library, raise an issue before submitting a forked pull request.
