Why is this package helpful?
----------------------------

[](#why-is-this-package-helpful)

This package allow you to create taxonomies and terms and relate them to Laravel models, similar to WordPress

- Create Taxonomy groups to categorise your models
- Add terms to models and to taxonomies
- Use your localisation files to translate taxonomy and term names
- Find all models relating to a given taxonomy or term

Unlike other popular tag packages for Laravel this one supports MariaDB.

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- PHP ^8.5
- Laravel ^13.0

Install
-------

[](#install)

You can install this package via composer:

```
composer require myerscode/laravel-taxonomies
```

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

The service provider will automatically be registered via package discovery.

Publish the migration with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\ServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
```

After the migration has been published, run the migrations to create the `tags`, `taxonomies` and `taggables` tables.

[Usage](docs/model.md)
----------------------

[](#usage)

To make an Eloquent model taggable just add the `\Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\HasTaxonomy` trait to it:

```
class Post extends Model
{
    use \Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\HasTaxonomy;

    ...
}
```

[Terms](docs/terms.md)
----------------------

[](#terms)

Are the meta tags you want to add to your model, giving them a definable characteristic.

[Taxonomies](docs/taxonomies.md)
--------------------------------

[](#taxonomies)

Are are a way of grouping your terms together, categorising your collection.

For example a `Taxonomy` called `Colours` could contain terms such as `Red`, `Yellow`, `Green` and `Blue`.

[Localisation](docs/localisation.md)
------------------------------------

[](#localisation)

You can get translated names from your terms and taxonomies by setting localised language files.

Advance Usage
-------------

[](#advance-usage)

You can change the default `Taxonomy` or `Term` class by publishing the config, and modifying the classes to your custom models.

Publish the config file with:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\ServiceProvider" --tag="config"
```
