Invitations
===========

[](#invitations)

Send email based invites to potential new users.
------------------------------------------------

[](#send-email-based-invites-to-potential-new-users)

This package is designed to enable web applications the feature of sending tokenized email invitations to potential new users. The invitation is a record on a invitations table, and once claimed is removed and a new user is added to the users table. This package was designed to work the the [Admin Package](https://github.com/jameron/admin) and the [Regulator Package](https://github.com/jameron/regulator)

Setup instructions
------------------

[](#setup-instructions)

1. Add the package to yuor composer.json file

`"jameron/invitations" : "*"`

NOTE: Laravel 5.5 users can skip steps 2 and 3

2. Add to your providers:

```
        Jameron\Invitations\InvitationsServiceProvider::class,
```

3. Add to your Facades:

```
        'Invitations' => Jameron\Invitations\Facades\InvitationsFacade::class,
```

4. Publish the migrations and config

    `php artisan vendor:publish`
5. Run migrations

    `pph artisan migrate`
6. If you want to tie related model data to your invitations you can set that in your config/invitations.php config file.

Make sure to add the Invitable Trait to the model you are relating to your invitations:

```
use Jameron/Invitations/Models/Traits/Invitable;
```

then in the class add that Trait

```
use Invitable;
```

If for example say you are inviting an user to manage a page you created for them. You have a table called pages, with foreign\_key user\_id currently set to null. You want the page user\_id (nullable) set to the invited user once they claim their invite.

Your config would look like this:

```
    'related' => [
        'active' => false,
        'model' => \App\Page::class,
        'resource_route' => 'pages',
        'title' => 'Pages',
        'id_column' => 'id',
        'value_column' => 'title',
        'user_foreign_key' => 'user_id',
        'owner_foreign_key' => null
	],
```

When the invitation is claimed the page associated to the invitation will be updated with the users id.

7. Add to your database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php

```
        $this->call(\Jameron\Import\database\seeds\InvitationsSeeder::class);
```
