Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require ahmmmmad11/filters

After installation, you can publish the configuration file using the following command:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="filters-config"

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Filters Path
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | This value is the path where your filter class will be created.
    |
    */

    'path' => '\Http\Filters',

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | pagination rows
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | The `per_page` value indicates the default pagination size. 
    | If the 'per_page' argument is not provided or there is no 
    | paginate query in the request, this value will be used.
    |
    */

    'per_page' => 100,
];

Usage

create your first filter

php artisan filter:make UsersFilter --model=User

This will generate a UsersFilter class in the ‘app/Http/Filters’ directory. You can then customize this filter according to your application’s needs.

    <?php

    namespace App\Http\Filters;
    
    use Ahmmmmad11\Filters\Filter;
    use App\Models\User;
    use Spatie\QueryBuilder\QueryBuilder;
    
    class UsersFilter extends Filter
    {
        public function filter(): Filter
        {
            $this->data = QueryBuilder::for(User::class)
                ->allowedFilters(
                    ["id","name","email","email_verified_at","created_at","updated_at"]
                );
    
            return $this;
        }
    }

Certainly! Here’s a rephrased version of your instructions:

If you follow the correct naming convention, you can omit the --model option. For instance, if you have a User model, you can use the following simplified command:

    php artisan filter:make UsersFilter

In this case, since you used the plural form of the model (User becomes “Users”), or if you prefer the singular form (UserFilter), the filter command will automatically associate it with the User model.

Please note that this rule does not apply to combined model names like UserProduct. In such cases, please explicitly specify the model using the --model=UserProduct option or the shorter -m"UserProduct" form.

now you can use the filter by injecting UserFilter in your controller like:

...

use App\Http\Filters\UsersFilter;

class UserController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * Display a listing of the resource.
     */
    public function index(UsersFilter $filter)
    {
        return $filter->get();
    }
}

or you may want to return paginated data

    ...
    
    public function index(UsersFilter $filter)
    {
        return $filter->paginate(30);
    }

if you want to assign the size of the pagination form the client side you can do it by leaving the paginate argument empty

    $filter->paginate();

    // https://example.com/users?per_page=10

if the rows argument of paginate method is left empty and no ?paginate in request query the default row size in filters.php config will be used.

Extend Eloquent methods

you can preform customization over the query directly from you controller method by passing callback to execute method.

// UsersController

public function index(UsersFilter $filter)
{
    return $filter->execute(function ($query) {
        $query->where('status', 'active');
    })->get();
}

inside execute callback function you can use all eloquent methods.

Include relations

to include model relations just add option --relations to filter make command.

php artisan filter:make UsersFilter  --relations

or short form

php artisan filter:make UsersFilter -r

this will generate:

//UserFilter Class

public function filter(): Filter
    {
        $this->data = QueryBuilder::for(User::class)
            ->allowedFilters(
                [...filters]
            )
            ->allowedIncludes(
                [...relations]
            );

        return $this;
    }
