Introduction
------------

[](#introduction)

This package makes it easy to sort and filter Eloquent queries via an associative array of options, usually from a FormRequest class.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require joggapp/laravel-query-filters
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Defining a QueryFilter

[](#defining-a-queryfilter)

Consider a `Product` model with `category`, `name`, and `price` fields.

We can apply sorting and filtering on these fields by defining a QueryFilter class. To create one, use the following command:

```
php artisan make:query-filter ProductQueryFilter
```

This command will create a new QueryFilter class in the `App\QueryFilters` directory.

Within this class, you can define the fields that can be sorted in ascending or descending order:

```
protected array $sortableFields = [
    'name',
    'price',
];
```

Specify the default sort and filtering options:

```
protected array $defaultFilters = [
    'sort_by' => 'price:asc,name:asc'
];
```

And define how a filter will be applied:

```
public function category(string|array $value)
{
    if (is_array($value)) {
        $query->whereIn('category', $value);
    } else {
        $query->where('category', $category);
    }
}
```

### Using QueryFilter Methods

[](#using-queryfilter-methods)

After defining the QueryFilter, it can be used to apply filter and sorting options:

```
use App\Model\Product;
use App\QueryFilters\ProductQueryFilter;

$filters = [
    'category' => 'Apparel',
    'sort_by' => 'price:asc,name:asc',
];

(new ProductQueryFilter())
    ->set($filters)
    ->apply(Product::query())
    ->get();
```

In this example, we are getting all products in the Apparel category sorted by price from low to high, then alphabetically by name.

### SortBy Validation Rule

[](#sortby-validation-rule)

Included in this package is a `SortBy` validation rule that can be used to help validate sort-by parameters:

```
use App\Models\Product;
use App\QueryFilters\ProductQueryFilter;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Validator;
use JoggApp\LaravelQueryFilters\Rules\SortBy;

$data = [
    'sort_by' => 'price:asc,name:asc',
];

$validator = Validator::make($data, [
    'sort_by' => ['sometimes', new SortBy()],
]);

$validated = $validator->validated();

$products = (new ProductQueryFilter())
    ->set($validated)
    ->apply(Product::query())
    ->get();
```
