README

This package provides a trait that will generate in a separate table a unique slug when saving any Eloquent model.

The slugs are generated with Laravels str_slug method, whereby spaces are converted to '-'.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require lightframes/laravel-slugmaker

! For Laravel < v5.5

Add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in config/app.php:

Lightframes\SlugMaker\SlugMakerServiceProvider::class,

Publish config file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=slugmaker-config

Publish the migration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=slugmaker-migrations

and run the migration:

php artisan migrate

Usage

Configure

! Pay attention! Your model should not have a field named "slug"

Your Eloquent models should use the Lightframes\SlugMaker\ModelHasSlug trait.

The trait contains an method getSlugSourceFields() that you must implement yourself.

Also the trait contains public method slug() for relations your item-model with item-slug:

public function slug()
{
    return $this->morphOne(\Lightframes\SlugMaker\Models\Slug::class, 'slugable');
}

Here's an example of how to implement the trait:

<?php

namespace App\Models;

use Lightframes\SlugMaker\ModelHasSlug;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Article extends Model
{
    use ModelHasSlug;
    
    protected $with = ['slug'];
    
    /**
     * Get the default fields for generating the slug.
     */
    public function getSlugSourceFields()
    {
        return ['id', 'name', 'created_at']; // "124-article-test-slug-2017-12-26-135705"
    }
}

Get & make slugs

You can to get slug with relation-method slug():

$article = Article::find(13);
$slug = $article->slug->name;

Or use next scope-methods in your models:

• getSlugName()
• findBySlug($slug)
• findOrFailBySlug($slug)
• getBySlugs(array $slugs)
• getArrayIdsBySlugs(array $slugs)
• makeSlug(string $str = '')

For example:

$slug = Article::find(13)->getSlugName();
$slug = Article::findBySlug('my-slug');
$slug = Article::getBySlugs(['my-slug-1', 'my-slug-2']);
$slug = Article::getArrayIdsBySlugs(['my-slug-1', 'my-slug-2']);

Usage function helpers:

• slug_get($slug)
• slug_get_models($slugs, $class = null)
• slug_get_id($slug, $class = null)
• slug_get_ids($slugs, $class = null)
• slug_get_grouped_class($attributes)
• slug_make($model, $slug = '') // if empty $slug - generate with getSlugSourceFields(): array
• slug_delete($model)

Usage class SlugHelper:

$helper = new Lightframes\SlugMaker\SlugHelper();
$helper->getModel($slug, $modelClass = null);
$helper->getModels(array $slugs, $modelClass = null);
$helper->getId($slug, $modelClass = null);
$helper->getIds(array $slugs, $modelClass = null);
$helper->getIdsGroupedByClass(array $attributes);
$helper->makeForModel($model, $slug = '');
$helper->deleteByModel($model);

The getIds() return the array:

[
    1, 2, 8, 3
]

$attributes = [
    App\Models\Article::class => ['slug-article-name',],
    App\Models\Page::class => ['slug-page-name-1', 'slug-page-name-2'],
    App\Models\Product::class => 'slug-product-name',
    ];

The getIdsGroupedByClass($attributes) return the array:

[
    'App\Models\Article' => [1],
    'App\Models\Page' => [2, 8],
    'App\Models\Product' => [3],
]
