Pilter
======

[](#pilter)

Pilter is a Laravel package designed to simplify and organize filter and sorting queries in your Laravel applications. By separating these operations into dedicated classes, Pilter helps make your code cleaner, more readable, and easier to maintain.

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

[](#installation)

You can install the package via Composer:

```
composer require zihad/pilter
```

Usage/Examples
--------------

[](#usageexamples)

Create a new `Filter` class `PostFilter`

`php artisan make:filter Post`

```
namespace App\Filters;

use Zihad\Pilter\Filters\Filter;

class PostFilter extends Filter
{
    //
}
```

You can use the Filter class like this:

```
$posts = (new PostFilter(Post::query(), ['title' => 'Post 1', 'sort' => '-title']))
    ->filter()
    ->sort()
    ->get();
```

Or

```
namespace App\Models;

use Zihad\Pilter\Traits\Filterable;

// Use Filterable trait in model
class Post extends Model
{
    use Filterable;
}

$posts = Post::query()
    ->applyQuery(['title' => 'Post 1', 'sort' => '-title']), PostFilter::class)
    ->get();
```

You can filter and sort by defining separate methods in `PostFilter.php`

```
// Filter method
protected function title($title)
{
    $this->getQuery()->where('title', $title);
}
// Sort method
protected function sortTitle($order)
{
    $this->getQuery()->orderBy('title', $order);
}
```

Or you can do the basic filters and sorting by adding then in filterable and sortable attributes in `PostFilter.php`

```
protected array $filterableFields = ['title', 'category', 'slug'];
protected array $sortableFields = ['title', 'category', 'slug'];
```
