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

[](#installation)

You can install this package via composer:

```
composer require tobymaxham/laravel-helper
```

Model Logging
-------------

[](#model-logging)

### Track User changes

[](#track-user-changes)

Track if user created, updated or deleted a `Model`. You have to add these attributes to you database table. By default the fields `created_by`, `updated_by` and `deleted_by` fields will be used.

```
namespace App;

use TobyMaxham\Helper\Models\Logs\ChangeByUser;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class User extends Model
{
    use ChangeByUser;
}
```

You could also turn off tracking by returning `false` to the attribute fetching methods:

```
public function getCreatedByColumn()
{
    return false;
}
```

#### Migration

[](#migration)

With my `MigrationHelper` you can automatically add the fields to you migrations file:

```
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('posts', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->increments('id');

            $table->string('title');
            $table->text('content');

            MigrationHelper::addCreatedByUser($table);

            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }
```

Or you can create all three fields at once by calling `MigrationHelper::addChangedByUserFields($table)`.
