An laravel implementation of the Gateway Pattern

A gateway encapsulates the semantic gap between the object-oriented domain layer and the relation-oriented persistence layer.

Usage

Step 1: Add the Service Provider

In your config/app.php add Eilander\Repository\Providers\RepositoryServiceProvider:class to the end of the providers array:

<?php
'providers' => [
    ...
    Eilander\Gateway\Providers\GatewayServiceProvider::class,
],

Step 2: Add package to composer.json for autoloading

Add the package to the main composer.json for autoloading and run composer dump-autoload, like so:

<?php
   "autoload": {
        "classmap": [
            "database"
        ],
        "psr-4": {
            "App\\": "app/",
            "Eilander\\Gateway\\": "../library/eilander/gateway/src/"
        }
    },

#!json

composer dump-autoload

Controller example

<?php 

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;
use App\Gateways\ProductGateway as Gateway;

class ProductController extends Controller
{
    /**
     * @var VodafoneGateway
     */
    protected $gateway;

    public function __construct(Gateway $gateway){
        $this->gateway = $gateway;
    }

    public funcion create() {
        return $this->gateway->createProduct();
    }

    ....
}

Gateway example

<?php 

namespace  App\Gateways;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

class TestGateway {

    public function __construct(Request $request) 
    {
        $this->request = $request;
    }

    public function createProduct() 
    {
        // some validation
        ...
        // screate new product
        $product = App\Product::create($this->request->all());
    }
}

Gateway types

Laravel's eloquent (single and multiple) gateways are included. An empty elasticsearch gateway is also included

Presenters

Presenters function as a wrapper and renderer for objects.

Fractal Presenter

Requires Fractal.

Usage

Create a Transformer

use League\Fractal\TransformerAbstract;

class PostTransformer extends TransformerAbstract
{
    public function transform(\Post $post)
    {
        return [
            'id'      => (int) $post->id,
            'title'   => $post->title,
            'content' => $post->content
        ];
    }
}

Create a Presenter

use Eilander\Gateway\Presenter\FractalPresenter;

class PostPresenter extends FractalPresenter {

    /**
     * Prepare data to present
     *
     * @return \League\Fractal\TransformerAbstract
     */
    public function getTransformer()
    {
        return new PostTransformer();
    }
}

Enabling in your Gateway

<?php

namespace  App\Gateways\Eloquent;

use App\Gateways\Eloquent\Contracts\GebruikerGateway as Gateways;
use App\Repositories\Eloquent\Contracts\GebruikerRepository as Repository;
use App\Validators\GebruikerValidator as Validator;
use Eilander\Gateway\Eloquent\EloquentGateway;
use App\Presenters\GebruikerPresenter as Presenter;

/**
 * Class FruitRepository
 */
class GebruikerGateway extends EloquentGateway implements Gateways {
{

    ...

    public function presenter()
    {
        return Presenter::class;
    }
}

Skip Presenter defined in the gateway

Use skipPresenter before any other chaining method

$posts = $this->gateway->skipPresenter()->all();
