laravel-enums
=============

[](#laravel-enums)

laravel-enums is a package by Pelton Solutions that allows Laravel developers to work easily with enumerated values. Enums (short for 'enumerations') represent a set of named constants in your code. By introducing enums, this package significantly enhances the readability and maintainability of your code.

In addition, you can optionally make your Enum fields nullable. To use this feature, simply have your Enum class extend the `NullableEnum` class.

Example:
--------

[](#example)

```
class ContentPageStatus extends \PeltonSolutions\LaravelEnums\Models\Enum
{
	const DRAFT = 'draft';
	const SCHEDULED = 'scheduled';
	const PUBLISHED = 'published';
	const ARCHIVED = 'archived';

	public static function map(): array
	{
		return [
			static::DRAFT => trans('content_page.statuses.draft'),
			static::SCHEDULED => trans('content_page.statuses.scheduled'),
			static::PUBLISHED => trans('content_page.statuses.published'),
			static::ARCHIVED => trans('content_page.statuses.archived'),
		];
	}
}
```

```
class ContentPage extends Model
{
	protected $casts = [
		'status' => ContentPageStatus::class
	];
}
```

These examples demonstrate how you could use enumerations in a Laravel model. `ContentPageStatus` is an enumeration that represents the possible status values that a `ContentPage` could have. The `ContentPage` model includes a casting to this enumeration, enabling more robust input validation and a more explicit declaration of the possible 'status' values. The package ensures value validation by throwing a `\PeltonSolutions\LaravelEnums\Models\Exceptions\InvalidEnumValueException` exception if you try to set a value that is not in the specified enumeration.
