README

Assign expiration dates to Eloquent models

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require mvdnbrk/laravel-model-expires

Usage

To use an expiration date on a model, use the Expirable trait:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Mvdnbrk\EloquentExpirable\Expirable;

class Subscription extends Model
{
    use Expirable;
}

You should add an expires_at column to your database table.
This packages contains a helper method to create this column:

class CreateSubscriptionsTable extends Migration
{
    public function up(): void
    {
        Schema::create('subscriptions', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->expires();
        });
    }

    public function down(): void
    {
        Schema::dropExpires();
    }
}

The Expirable trait will automatically cast the expires_at attribute to a DateTime / Carbon instance for you.

Customizing the column name

You may customize the column name by setting the EXIRES_AT constant or by overriding the getExpiresAtColumn method on your model.

class Subscription extends Model
{
    use Expirable;

    const EXPIRES_AT = 'ends_at';
}

$table->expires('ends_at');
$table->dropExpires('ends_at');

Setting expiration

You may set the expiration of a model by setting the expires_at attribute with a TTL in seconds:

$subscription->expires_at = 600;

Instead of passing the number of seconds as an integer, you may also pass a DateTime instance representing the expiration date:

$subscription->expires_at = now()->addMinutes(10);

Discarding expiration

You may discard the expiration of a model by setting a negative or zero TTL or use the discardExpiration method:

$subscription->expires_at = 0;
$subscription->expires_at = -5;

$subscription->discardExpiration()->save();

Determining expiration

To determine if a given model instance has expired, use the expired method:

if ($subscription->expired()) {
    //
}

To determine if a given model will expire in the future use the willExpire method:

if ($subscription->willExpire()) {
    //
}

Querying models

The withoutExpired method will retrieve models that are not expired:

$subscriptions = App\Models\Subscription::withoutExpired()->get();

The onlyExpired method will retrieve only the expired models:

$subscriptions = App\Models\Subscription::onlyExpired()->get();

The expiring method will retrieve only models that will expire in the future:

$subscriptions = App\Models\Subscription::expiring()->get();

The notExpiring method will retrieve only models that will not expire:

$subscriptions = App\Models\Subscription::notExpiring()->get();

Todo

• Add a expired:prune console command to delete expired models, or perform custom implementation.
• Add a query scope that will query models that will expire in ...
