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

> Combine words from word lists into strings in Laravel 5.

combinewords is a package for Laravel 5 that provides functionality to combine random words selected from loaded lists to generate a string.

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

[](#installation)

Add `thesnackalicious/combinewords` to your `composer.json` file:

```
"require": {
  "thesnackalicious/combinewords": "1.*"
}

```

Use `composer` to install this package.

```
$ composer update

```

### Register the Service Provider and Facade

[](#register-the-service-provider-and-facade)

After updating composer add the service provider to the `providers` array in your `config/app.php` file:

```
TheSnackalicious\CombineWords\Providers\CombineWordsServiceProvider::class

```

Add the facade to the `aliases` array in your `config/app.php` file:

```
'CombineWords' => TheSnackalicious\CombineWords\Facades\CombineWords::class

```

### Publish the configuration file

[](#publish-the-configuration-file)

If you want to use an alternative configuration, you can publish the `combinewords.php` configuration file:

```
$ php artisan vendor:publish

```

How it works
------------

[](#how-it-works)

combinewords generates strings by choosing random words based on the supplied format string. For each word holder in the format string, combinewords will choose a random word to replace it from the corresponding .json file. For example:

```
$ php artisan tinker
>>> CombineWords::make('{color}{noun}');
=> "blackwood"

```

In this example combinewords chooses one random word from the `color.json` file and one random word from the `noun.json` file to create the `blackwood` string.

combinewords will look for word list files in the directory specified by the value in the `combinewords.directory` configuration key. combinewords comes with two word lists included: `color.json` and `noun.json`.

### Adding Requirements

[](#adding-requirements)

combinewords allows you to specify requirements that the generated string must meet:

```
$ php artisan tinker
>>> CombineWords::requirement(new MinimumLengthRequirement(5))->make('{color}{noun}');
=> "orangefather"
>>> CombineWords::requirements([new MaximumLengthRequirement(10), function($s) { return strpos($s, 'pink') === 0; }])->make('{color}{noun}');
=> "pinktree"

```

The maximum number of attempts that combinewords will perform is specified by the value in the `combinewords.max_attempts` configuration key. This value can also be passed in as the second parameter to the `make` function.

Note that the requirements stored on the generator are cleared after every call to the `make` function. If you want to preserve the requirements for the next `make` function call you should pass `true` as the third parameter of the `make` function.
