FoxTail
=======

[](#foxtail)

A Laravel package to manage routes user accessed. (L5.4+)

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Execute the next command.

```
composer require sukohi/fox-tail:1.*

```

Set the service provider in `config/app.php`.

```
'providers' => [
    ...Others...,
    Sukohi\FoxTail\FoxTailServiceProvider::class,
]

```

Also alias

```
'aliases' => [
    ...Others...,
    'FoxTail'   => Sukohi\FoxTail\Facades\FoxTail::class,
]

```

Then execute the next commands.

```
php artisan vendor:publish

```

Now you have `config/fox_tail.php`.

Definition
==========

[](#definition)

- Tail: A set of data a user will access. It contains `name(route name or uri)`, `method`, `url`, `full_url` and `parameters`.
- Story: A set of `Tails` user could access.

Preparation
===========

[](#preparation)

(Middleware)

You need to set FoxTailMiddleware in `\App\Http\Kernel.php` like so.

```
protected $routeMiddleware = [
    ...Others...,
    'fox_tail' => \Sukohi\FoxTail\Middleware\FoxTailMiddleware::class
];

```

And also in `routes/web.php`

```
Route::middleware(['fox_tail'])->group(function(){

    Route::get('/my/page/1', 'HomeController@mypage_1')->name('my-page-1');
    Route::get('/my/page/2', 'HomeController@mypage_2')->name('my-page-2');
    Route::get('/my/page/3', 'HomeController@mypage_3')->name('my-page-3');

});

```

In this case, FoxTail watches `/my/page/1`, `/my/page/2` and `/my/page/3`.
Then, it will keep `Tail` in session.

(Config)
In `config/fox_tail.php`, you can set `Story` which means user's access history.
See the file for the details.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Check if `Story` you set in the config file matches.

```
$story_name = 'how_much';

if(\FoxTail::isStory($story_name)) {

    echo 'Match!';

}

```

Get all `Tails`

```
$tails = \FoxTail::getTails();   // Laravel Collection

```

Get a `Tail`

```
$tail = \FoxTail::getTail($tail_name);
echo $tail->method;
echo $tail->url;
echo $tail->full_url;
print_r($tail->parameters); // Array

// or

echo \FoxTail::getMethod($tail_name);
echo \FoxTail::getUrl($tail_name);
echo \FoxTail::getFullUrl($tail_name);
print_r(\FoxTail::getParameters($tail_name));   // Array

```

Check if FoxTail has a `Tail` or not

```
$tail_name = 'about_us';

if(\FoxTail::has($tail_name)) {

    echo 'Has it!';

    $tail = \FoxTail::getTail($tail_name);

}

```

Check if the previous `Tail` name

```
$tail_name = 'about_us';

if(\FoxTail::isPrevious($tail_name)) {

    echo 'That is right!';

}

```

Get `Tail` and `Tail` name by step

```
echo \FoxTail::getTailNameByStep();    // Current tail
echo \FoxTail::getTailNameByStep(1);    // The previous tail tail

print_r(\FoxTail::getTailByStep());    // Current tail by step
print_r(\FoxTail::getTailByStep(1));    // The previous tail by step

```
