Install the package via Composer ``` $ composer require ufutx/laravel-favorite ``` 2. Update `config/app.php` by adding an entry for the service provider. ``` 'providers' => [ // ... Ufutx\LaravelFavorite\FavoriteServiceProvider::class, ]; ``` 3. Migrate the database from the command line: ``` php artisan migrate ``` Models ------ [](#models) Your User model should import the `Traits/Favoriteability.php` trait and use it, that trait allows the user to favorite the models. (see an example below): ``` use Ufutx\LaravelFavorite\Traits\Favoriteability; class User extends Authenticatable { use Favoriteability; } ``` Your models should import the `Traits/Favoriteable.php` trait and use it, that trait have the methods that you'll use to allow the model be favoriteable. In all the examples I will use the Post model as the model that is 'Favoriteable', thats for example propuses only. (see an example below): ``` use Ufutx\LaravelFavorite\Traits\Favoriteable; class Post extends Model { use Favoriteable; } ``` That's it ... your model is now **"favoriteable"**! Now the User can favorite models that have the favoriteable trait. Usage ----- [](#usage) The models can be favorited with and without an authenticated user (see examples below): ### Add to favorites and remove from favorites: [](#add-to-favorites-and-remove-from-favorites) If no param is passed in the favorite method, then the model will asume the auth user. ``` $post = Post::find(1); $post->addFavorite(); // auth user added to favorites this post $post->removeFavorite(); // auth user removed from favorites this post $post->toggleFavorite(); // auth user toggles the favorite status from this post ``` If a param is passed in the favorite method, then the model will asume the user with that id. ``` $post = Post::find(1); $post->addFavorite(5); // user with that id added to favorites this post $post->removeFavorite(5); // user with that id removed from favorites this post $post->toggleFavorite(5); // user with that id toggles the favorite status from this post ``` The user model can also add to favorites and remove from favrites: ``` $user = User::first(); $post = Post::first(); $user->addFavorite($post); // The user added to favorites this post $user->removeFavorite($post); // The user removed from favorites this post $user->toggleFavorite($post); // The user toggles the favorite status from this post ``` ### Return the favorite objects for the user: [](#return-the-favorite-objects-for-the-user) A user can return the objects he marked as favorite. You just need to pass the **class** in the `favorite()` method in the `User` model. ``` $user = Auth::user(); $user->favorite(Post::class); // returns a collection with the Posts the User marked as favorite ``` ### Return the favorites count from an object: [](#return-the-favorites-count-from-an-object) You can return the favorites count from an object, you just need to return the `favoritesCount` attribute from the model ``` $post = Post::find(1); $post->favoritesCount; // returns the number of users that have marked as favorite this object. ``` ### Return the users who marked this object as favorite [](#return-the-users-who-marked-this-object-as-favorite) You can return the users who marked this object, you just need to call the `favoritedBy()` method in the object ``` $post = Post::find(1); $post->favoritedBy(); // returns a collection with the Users that marked the post as favorite. ``` Testing ------- [](#testing) The package have integrated testing, so everytime you make a pull request your code will be tested.
