Presenter
=========

[](#presenter)

This is an alternative implementation of [laracasts/presenter](https://github.com/laracasts/Presenter) with some added features. Some parts of this document is copy-past!

Easy View Presenters
====================

[](#easy-view-presenters)

So you have those scenarios where a bit of logic needs to be performed before some data (likely from your entity) is displayed from the view.

- Should that logic be hard-coded into the view? **No**.
- Should we instead store the logic in the model? **No again!**

Instead, leverage view presenters. That's what they're for! This package provides one such implementation.

**PS**: Using repository pattern, this package suggests that repository functions should return presenter instead of model and presenter collection instead of eloquent collection.

\#Installation

```
{
    "require": {
        "halaei/presenter": "0.*"
    }
}
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The first step is to store your presenters somewhere - anywhere. These will be simple objects that do nothing more than format data, as required.

Here's an example of a presenter.

```
use Laracasts\Presenter\Presenter;

class UserPresenter extends Presenter {

    public function fullName()
    {
        return $this->first . ' ' . $this->last;
    }

    public function accountAge()
    {
        return $this->created_at->diffForHumans();
    }

}
```

Next, on your entity, pull in the `Halaei\Presenter\PresentableTrait` trait, which will automatically instantiate your presenter class.

Here's an example - maybe a Laravel `User` model.

```
