README

This package puts a nice wrapper around the fractal package: http://fractal.thephpleague.com. It handles the nitty gritty task of spinning up the manager, creating a resource and provides a convient location to register your transformers.

Installation

Add this to your composer.json require:

"bastian/fractal-magic": "dev-master"

and run composer update.

Usage

$fractal = new Hofmann\FractalMagic\Fractal([
  'posts' => new ResourceTransformer
]);

// Singular for a fractal item

$fractal->post(['title' => 'Hello']);

// Plural for a fractal collection

$fractal->posts([
  ['title' => 'Hi!']
]);

Notice that you only have to set the singular resource binding. This will return a Symfony response with the data in place, which you can return from your controller or route closure.

Laravel Usage

For usage in laravel I suggest you register a Response::macro like this:

Response::macro('fractal', function()
{
  return new Hofmann\FractalMagic\Fractal([
    'resource' => new ResourceTransformer
  ]);
});

Now you can use this in your controller:

class SomeController {

  public function index()
  {
    return Response::fractal()->resources($data);
  }
  
}
