I =================== INSTALLATION =======================

Background: This package arises from the necessity to create taxonomies in various projects I create for my clients. It can be used in any other project. It comes with minimal CSS so that it can be adjustable as needed

1. Include the package in your project

   composer require "codiiv/laravel-taxonomies"
   
   

2. Add the service provider to your config/app.php providers array:

   If you're installing on Laravel 5.5+ skip this step

   Codiiv\Taxonomies\TaxonomiesServiceProvider::class,
   

3. Now that we have published a few new files to our application we need to reload them with the following command:

   composer dump-autoload
   

4. Publish the Vendor Assets files by running:

   php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Codiiv\Taxonomies\TaxonomiesServiceProvider"
   
   

   This will create a taxonomies folder in the public assets. It will also create a configuration file in the config/taxonomies.php

   To set up the taxonomies path, edit the file accordingly.

5. Run Your migrations:

   php artisan migrate
   
   

   Quick tip: Make sure that you've created a database and added your database credentials in your .env file.

6. Lastly, CONFIGURE SUPER ADMIN account.

   Run this command php artisan taxonomies:superadmin [e-mail] replacing [e-mail] by the email of the user you want to set as super admin. Note that you can only have one super admin.

7. CONFIGURE TAXONOMY Paths

After running the vendor:publish --force command

Now, visit your site.com/dashboard/taxonomies and you should see your new forum admin once logged in!

III ======================= USAGE =======================

1.$paginatedTerms global is a list of paginated terms of a particular taxonomy. Useful if you want to create a list of the items in a paginated way. It is set in the Service Provider and takes the taxonomy from the URL ?taxonomy=XYZ or takes the defgault, which is category e.g

         <ul class="the-items">
           @foreach($paginatedTerms as $key => $term )
           <li data-value="{{ $term->id }}" class="level-{{ $term->level }}">
                <a href="{{ url(Config::get('taxonomies.taxonomy_path')).'?taxonomy='.$taxonomy.'&term_id='.$term->id }}">
                    {{ $term->pointer.' '.$term->name }}
                </a>
           </li>
           @endforeach
         </ul>
         <div class="pagination-container">
           {{ $paginatedTerms->links() }}
         </div>

DROPDOWN $Taxonomy and $taxonomy are set globally via the service provider. $Taxonomy is the DB object while the $taxonomy is set by the taxonomy query string parameter or lack thereof, in which case the default taxonomy is picked up

<?php $terms = $Taxonomy::sortedTerms($taxonomy, null, 0, []); ?>

    <select class="parent" name="parent">
       <option value=""> — — — — {{ __("Choose One") }} — — — — </option>
       @foreach($terms as $key => $term)
          <option value="{{ $term->id }}" class="level-{{ $term->level }}">{{ $term->pointer.' '.$term->name }}</option>
       @endforeach
    </select>

1. Configure Default Values

   Once you have run the php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Codiiv\Taxonomies\TaxonomiesServiceProvider" that command will copy the taxonomies.php to config/taxonomies.php. You can change the vaiables as needed
