Whether you're building a social network, blog, or forum, this package makes it easy for users to express themselves through customizable reactions. 🔧 Features: - Add reactions to any model (e.g., posts, comments, messages) - Multiple reaction types (like, love, laugh, etc.) - Easy API for adding/removing reactions - Track who reacted and how - Eloquent relationships for seamless integration - Built-in support for custom reaction types - Lightweight and easy to customize Installation ------------ [](#installation) - `PHP >= 8.1` - `Laravel >= 10.0` You can install the package with Composer: ``` composer require binafy/laravel-reactions ``` Publish ------- [](#publish) If you want to publish a config file, you can use this command: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-reactions-config" ``` If you want to publish the migrations, you can use this command: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-reactions-migrations" ``` For convenience, you can use this command to publish config, migration, and ... files: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Binafy\LaravelReaction\Providers\LaravelReactionServiceProvider" ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Setting Up Your Models [](#setting-up-your-models) Before using reactions, your models need the appropriate traits. User models require the Reactor trait to create reactions, while content models require the Reactable trait to receive reactions. #### User Model Setup [](#user-model-setup) ``` use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Traits\Reactor; class User extends Authenticatable { use Reactor; } ``` #### Content Model Setup [](#content-model-setup) ``` use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Contracts\HasReaction; use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Traits\Reactable; class Post extends Model implements HasReaction { use Reactable; } ``` ### Creating Reactions [](#creating-reactions) There are multiple ways to create reactions depending on your application's needs. You can create reactions from the user perspective or from the reactable content perspective. #### From User Models [](#from-user-models) Users can react to any reactable content using the `reaction()` method from the `Reactor` trait: ``` use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Enums\LaravelReactionTypeEnum; $user = User::find(1); $post = Post::find(1); // Using enum reaction types $user->reaction(LaravelReactionTypeEnum::REACTION_ANGRY, $post); // Using custom string reaction types $user->reaction('love', $post); ``` #### From Reactable Models [](#from-reactable-models) Reactable content can also initiate reactions, which is useful when you want to handle reactions from the content's perspective: ``` $post = Post::find(1); $user = User::find(1); // Specify the user explicitly $post->reaction('like', $user); // Use the currently authenticated user $post->reaction('like'); // Uses auth()->user() ``` ### Checking Reactions [](#checking-reactions) You can check whether content has been reacted to by specific users using the `isReacted()` method: ``` $post = Post::find(1); $user = User::find(1); // Check if a specific user reacted if ($post->isReacted($user)) { echo "User has reacted to this post"; } // Check if the currently authenticated user reacted if ($post->isReacted()) { echo "You have reacted to this post"; } ``` ### Basic Reaction Queries [](#basic-reaction-queries) The `Reactable` trait provides several methods for querying reaction data: #### Counting Reactions by Type [](#counting-reactions-by-type) ``` $post = Post::find(1); // Count specific reaction type $likeCount = $post->getReactCountByType('like'); $angryCount = $post->getReactCountByType(LaravelReactionTypeEnum::REACTION_ANGRY); ``` #### Getting All Reaction Counts [](#getting-all-reaction-counts) ``` $post = Post::find(1); // Returns collection with type => count pairs $reactionCounts = $post->getReactionsWithCount(); // Example result: ['like' => 5, 'love' => 3, 'angry' => 1] ``` #### Getting Reactors [](#getting-reactors) ``` $post = Post::find(1); // Get all users who reacted to this post $reactors = $post->getReactors(); ``` ### Removing Reactions [](#removing-reactions) Reactions can be removed either by type or completely: #### Remove Specific Reaction Type [](#remove-specific-reaction-type) ``` $user = User::find(1); $post = Post::find(1); // Remove specific reaction type $user->removeReaction('like', $post); // Or from the reactable side $post->removeReaction('like', $user); $post->removeReaction('like'); // For authenticated user ``` #### Remove All Reactions [](#remove-all-reactions) ``` $user = User::find(1); $post = Post::find(1); // Remove all reactions by the user on this post $user->removeReactions($post); // Or from the reactable side $post->removeReactions($user); $post->removeReactions(); // For authenticated user ``` ### Events [](#events) EventDescription`StoreReactionEvent`When store new reaction`RemoveReactionEvent`When remove a reaction`RemoveAllReactionEvent`When remove all reactionsContributors ------------ [](#contributors) Thanks to all the people who contributed.
