A collection of useful macros for Laravel. See details below.

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

[](#installation)

Via Composer

```
$ composer require mortenscheel/laravel-macros
```

Macros
------

[](#macros)

### Carbon

[](#carbon)

`Carbon::upToNearest(int $minutes): Carbon`

Rounds up to the nearest minute divisible by `$minutes`

`Carbon::downToNearest(int $minutes): Carbon`

Rounds down to the nearest minute divisible by `$minutes`

### Note

[](#note)

If the original time is already divisible by `$minutes` and the seconds are exactly zero, no rounding will occur.

### Filesystem

[](#filesystem)

`File::modify(string $path, \Closure $callback)`

The `$callback` will receive the current content of the file, and the return value will be stored back to the same `$path`

### Collection

[](#collection)

`Collection::sortKeysRecursively(bool $descending = false): Collection`

Sorts the Collection by keys, recursively.

Useful for comparing nested associative arrays where the contents may be sorted differently.

### Response

[](#response)

`Response::plain($body): Response`

Convenient macro for returning a plain text response. Simply adds a`Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8` header

### Builder

[](#builder)

`Builder::inlineQuery(): string`

Returns the Query SQL with bindings inserted. Useful for debugging queries, but should never be used in production.
