Install

Install via composer:

composer require alvarofpp/expand-database

Laravel uses Package Auto-Discovery, so doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider. But if you don't use auto-discovery, open the config/app.php file and add the following line to register the service provider:

'providers' => [
    // ...

    Alvarofpp\ExpandDatabase\ExpandDatabaseServiceProvider::class,

    // ...
],

Usage

This package currently contains:

• Table comment (MySQL/PostgreSQL).
• To Sql with bindings.

Table comment

Add a comment to a table (MySQL/PostgreSQL). Use the method comment in your Blueprint object, like:

<?php
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->id();
    $table->string('name');
    $table->string('email')->unique();
    $table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
    $table->string('password');
    $table->rememberToken();
    $table->timestamps();

    $table->comment('Stores users');
});

To remove the table comment, use removeComment() method:

<?php
Schema::table('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
    $table->removeComment();
});

To Sql with bindings

You can use the toSqlWithBindings() method to print your SQL with bindings (obviously). See this example:

<?php
$query = Course::where('price', '>', $request->price)
    ->where('rating', '>=', $request->min_rating)
    ->where('rating', '<=', $request->max_rating);

dd($query->toSql(), $query->toSqlWithBindings());

// toSql(): "select * from "courses" where "price" > ? and "rating" >= ? and "rating" <= ?"
// toSqlWithBindings(): "select * from "courses" where "price" > 100.0 and "rating" >= 4.3 and "rating" <= 5.0"
