Laravel Transferable Model Relationships
========================================

[](#laravel-transferable-model-relationships)

Make laravel model relationships transferable!

This is perfect to use when you want a model relationships to me assigned to another model (of the same type) and not be deleted or set null.

Install
-------

[](#install)

```
composer require nhalstead/transferable
```

How to use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

On the model its self you need to add in the use statement and optionally add in the implements to block the model from being deleted.

```

```

What makes it efficient? This will use the model's relationship to determine what needs to be updated in the database and runs a query on the DB to update the relationships without any extra calls to get all the IDs and detaching things.

### What else?

[](#what-else)

Nothing else, This package offers a few extra method for debugging and collecting information on the transferable relationships, see below:

```
// Return the number of transferable items attached to this model
$newUser->countTransferable();

// Return boolean if it would have any dangling relationships if deleted.
// The false param tells it not to throw an Exception
$newUser->hasDangling();

// Throw an exception when there are records dangling
$newUser->throwIfDangling();
```
