Laravel Extend Collections
==========================

[](#laravel-extend-collections)

*A few extensions to the [Laravel](https://laravel.com) Collection and Arr.*

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

[](#installation)

`composer require konsulting/laravel-extend-collections`

### Using Laravel

[](#using-laravel)

This package will auto-register the service provider.

### Not using Laravel

[](#not-using-laravel)

There is a simple namespaced helper function to assist with extending Collection and Arr.

```
// Inside your application code, run:

\Konsulting\Laravel\load_collection_extensions();
```

Arr Extensions
--------------

[](#arr-extensions)

- `fromDot` - convert an array where the keys are dot-notation indexed to a nested array

Collection extensions
---------------------

[](#collection-extensions)

- `dropEmpty` - drop items whose values are `empty()`
- `deep` - apply a function recursively through a collection, and through arrays/collections within it
- `dotGet` - retrieve an item using dot-notation
- `dotSet` - set an item using dot-notation
- `dotHas` - check if an item exists using dot-notation
- `dot` - now standard in Laravel as `dot`.
- `fromDot` - a little different to `undot` in Laravel.
