### Laravel Resourceable

[](#laravel-resourceable)

Laravel Resourceable is a package allowing you to quickly access a model's array value from an Api Resource class.

#### Installation

[](#installation)

```
composer require christopherarter/laravel-resourceable

```

#### Examples

[](#examples)

```
$user = new User([...]);

return $user->toResourceArray();

```

This package will automatically look for the resource class defined in the `App\Http\Resources` namespace with your **ClassName** + **Resource** appended. So for our user example, it would resolve to `App\Http\Resources\UserResource`.

You may also use a custom API Resource class from any namespace as a parameter:

```

return $user->toResourceArray(AlternateResource::class);

```

#### Why?

[](#why)

This allows for very accurate API HTTP testing of an endpoint, for example:

```

// UserTest.php

$user = factory(\App\User::class)->create();

$this->get(route('users.show'))

->assertJson($user->toResourceArray());

```

#### Credit

[](#credit)

This package was written by Chris Arter with valuable contributions by [Dan Alverez](https://github.com/bayareawebpro)
