Treeify
=======

[](#treeify)

The Treeify package allows you to easily convert flat collections of Laravel models into hierarchical tree structures based on self-parent-child relationships.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via composer:

```
composer require maso/treeify
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To use the Treeify package, simply apply the HasTree trait to your Eloquent models and utilize the scopeTreeify method to generate a hierarchical tree structure:

```
use Maso\Treeify\Traits\HasTree;

class Category extends Model
{
    use HasTree;

    /**
     * The name of the field that identifies the parent ID.
     *
     * This field is optional. If not specified, the default field name 'parent_id' will be used
     *
     */
    protected $parentFieldName = 'parent_id';
}
```

Assuming you have the following categories in your database:

idnameparent\_id1ElectronicsNULL2Laptops13Desktops14Smartphones15Gaming Laptops2#### Generating a Full Tree for All Categories
