Laravel Repositories
--------------------

[](#laravel-repositories)

---

This package provides a basic Repository pattern implementation for use with Laravel 5+.

### Installation

[](#installation)

---

This package may be installed with composer:

`composer require patinthehat/laravel-repositories`

### Usage

[](#usage)

---

Extend the `Repository` class and define its `model` method to create a repository for that model:

```
use Permafrost\Repository;

class UserRepository extends Repository
{
    public static function model()
    {
        return 'App\\User';
    }
}
```

The repository can then be used:

```
  $user = UserRepository::findByFirstName('john');
```

### Dynamic Find Methods

[](#dynamic-find-methods)

---

The `Repository` class allows for dynamic `findByN/findAllByN` method calls, which will search the repository model's field N for its first argument. For example,

```
    UserRepository::findByFirstName('john')
```

results in a call to

```
    User::where('first_name', 'john')->first()
```

### License

[](#license)

---

This package is open source software, available under the MIT license. See [LICENSE](LICENSE) for more information.
