====================

[](#eloquent-softdeletes)

Eloquent Status SoftDeletes is an extension for the Eloquent ORM to enable soft delete functionality using a status field. This approach allows you to mark records as deleted by setting a specific status value, making it easy to manage "deleted" records while keeping them in the database.

Features
--------

[](#features)

- Soft delete records by updating the status field.
- Customize the status value to indicate a soft delete.
- Seamlessly restore soft deleted records.
- Include or exclude soft deleted records in queries.

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

[](#installation)

To install this package, use Composer:

```
composer require snowrunescape/eloquent-softdeletes
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Use the SoftDeletes trait in your Eloquent model.

### Example

[](#example)

#### Setting Up Your Model

[](#setting-up-your-model)

To enable status-based soft deletes in your model, use the SoftDeletes trait and define the status field and the value that indicates a soft delete.

```
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use SnowRunescape\SoftDeletes\SoftDeletes;

class YourModel extends Model
{
    use SoftDeletes;
}
```

#### Soft Deleting a Record

[](#soft-deleting-a-record)

To soft delete a record, use the delete method. This will update the status field to the deleted status value.

```
$model->delete();
```

#### Restoring a Record

[](#restoring-a-record)

To restore a soft deleted record, use the restore method. This will update the status field to a non-deleted status value.

```
$model->restore();
```

#### Querying Soft Deleted Records

[](#querying-soft-deleted-records)

To include soft deleted records in a query, use the withTrashed method.

```
$allRecords = YourModel::withTrashed()->get();
```

To only get soft deleted records, use the onlyTrashed method.

```
$deletedRecords = YourModel::onlyTrashed()->get();
```

To exclude soft deleted records from a query, use the withoutTrashed method (this is the default behavior).

```
$activeRecords = YourModel::withoutTrashed()->get();
```
