Why do I need it? ================= [](#why-do-i-need-it) ### To make soft deleting and restoring relations easy. [](#to-make-soft-deleting-and-restoring-relations-easy) If you enjoy features like MySQL cascade deleting but want to use Laravels SoftDeletes feature you'll need to do some extra steps to ensure your relations are properly deleted or restored. This package is intended to replace those steps with a simple array that defines the relations you want to cascade. Installation ============ [](#installation) Install with composer ``` composer require askedio/laravel-soft-cascade ``` From Laravel 5.5 onwards, it's possible to take advantage of auto-discovery of the service provider. For Laravel versions before 5.5, you must register the service provider in your config/app.php ``` Askedio\SoftCascade\Providers\GenericServiceProvider::class, ``` Lumen does not support the auto-discovery feature, you should manually add the provider. ``` Askedio\SoftCascade\Providers\LumenServiceProvider::class, ``` Usage ===== [](#usage) In your `Model` enable the trait and define `$softCascade`. [Example](https://github.com/Askedio/laravel5-soft-cascade/blob/master/tests/App/User.php). ``` use \Askedio\SoftCascade\Traits\SoftCascadeTrait; protected $softCascade = ['profiles']; ``` For restricted relation use. [Example](https://github.com/Askedio/laravel5-soft-cascade/blob/master/tests/App/Languages.php). ``` use \Askedio\SoftCascade\Traits\SoftCascadeTrait; protected $softCascade = ['addresses@restrict']; ``` `$softCascade` is an array of your relation names, in the [example](https://github.com/Askedio/laravel5-soft-cascade/blob/master/tests/App/User.php) you'll see we've defined `function profiles()` for the relation. Nested relations work by defining `$softCascade` in the related `Model` as you can see [here](https://github.com/Askedio/laravel5-soft-cascade/blob/master/tests/App/Profiles.php). After you've defined your relations you can simply trigger `delete()` or `restore()` on your `Model` and your relations will have the same task performed. ``` User::first()->delete(); User::withTrashed()->first()->restore(); ``` It can also be used with query builder in this way because query builder listener is executed after query, we need to use transaction for rollback query on error due to restricted relationships ``` try { DB::beginTransaction(); //Start db transaction for rollback query when error User::limit(2)->delete(); User::withTrashed()->limit(2)->restore(); DB::commit(); //Commit the query } catch (\Exception $e) { DB::rollBack(); //Rollback the query //Optional, if we need to continue execution only rollback transaction and save message on variable throw new \Askedio\SoftCascade\Exceptions\SoftCascadeLogicException($e->getMessage()); } ``` Supported Databases =================== [](#supported-databases) - MySQL - PostgreSQL - SQLite - SQL Server Testing ======= [](#testing) I have written some very basic tests, certainly more needs to be done here. If you find this useful please help by testing other databases or writing better unit tests because I must move on. Issues & Contributing ========================= [](#issues--contributing) I will be using this with MySQL in a new API so any issues I find related to my use will be resolved. If you find an issue with MySQL please report it and I will fix it. If you are using another database and have issues please contribute by submitting a pull request. I do not have time to test this with other database but assume all would work. ### Health Score 64 — FairBetter than 99% of packages Maintenance66 Regular maintenance activity Popularity54 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community28 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity90 Battle-tested with a long release history Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
