Installation

Install from composer

composer require lyrasoft/feedback

Then copy files to project

php windwalker pkg:install lyrasoft/feedback -t routes -t migrations -t seeders

Language Files

Add this line to admin & front middleware if you don't want to override languages:

$this->lang->loadAllFromVendor('lyrasoft/feedback', 'ini');

// OR

$this->lang->loadAllFromVendor(\Lyrasoft\Feedback\FeedbackPackage::class, 'ini');

Or run this command to copy languages files:

php windwalker pkg:install lyrasoft/feedback -t lang

Seeders

There are 2 example seeders auto installed, add comment.seeder.php and rating.seeder.php to resources/seeders/main.php

return [
    // ...

    __DIR__ . '/comment.seeder.php',
    __DIR__ . '/rating.seeder.php',

    // ...
];

If you don't need example seeders, write your own seeder by adding comments through service:

foreach ($articleIds as $articleId) {
    foreach (range(1, random_int(2, 5)) as $i) {
        $userId = $faker->randomElement($userIds);

        $item = $commentService->addComment(
            $type,
            $articleId,
            $faker->paragraph(4),
            $userId,
            extra: function (Comment $item) use ($faker) {
                $item->title = $faker->sentence(2);
                $item->created = $faker->dateTimeThisYear();
                $item->ordering = $item->count() + 1;
            }
        );
    }
}

Register Admin Menu

Edit resources/menu/admin/sidemenu.menu.php

You must add type to route, every comment should contains type.

// Comment: Article
$menu->link('評論管理: 文章')
    ->to($nav->to('comment_list')->var('type', 'article'))
    ->icon('fal fa-comments');

// Or use translations

$menu->link($lang('feedback.comment.list.title', title: $lang('luna.article.title')))
    ->to($nav->to('comment_list')->var('type', 'article'))
    ->icon('fal fa-comments');

Comments

Add a comment to a type:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */
$commentService->addComment(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    'Comment Text...', // Content
    $user->id, // User ID
);

Add a comment and configure Comment entity:

use Lyrasoft\Feedback\Entity\Comment;

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */
$commentService->addComment(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    'Comment Text...', // Content
    $user->id, // User ID
    
    // The extra can be callback or array
    extra: function (Comment $comment) {
        $comment->rating = 5; // If user mark as 5 star
        $comment->nickname = 'Another nickname';
    }
);

Comments ordering:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */
$newComment = $commentService->addComment(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    'Comment Text...', // Content
    $user->id, // User ID or User entity
    extra: function (Comment $comment) use ($commentService) {
        $count = $commentService->countWith($comment);
        // OR
        $count = $comment->count();
    
        // This optional if you want to set ordering to one comment
        $comment->ordering = $count + 1;
    }
);

// Or reorder all comments of one target item.
$commentService->reorderComments(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
);

// OR

$commentService->reorderWith($newComment);

Comment Reply

There are 2 ways to add reply, one is just write reply content to comment, every comment contains only 1 reply:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */

$commentService->addInstantReply(
    $comment, // Can be ID or entity
    'Reply text...',
    $user->id, // User ID or User entity
);

The other way is to create sub comments:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */

$childComment = $commentService->addSubReply(
    $parentComment, // Can be ID or entity
    'Reply text...',
    $user->id, // User ID or User entity
    extra: function (Comment $comment) {
        // Configure comment entity before save
    }
);

// Optional: if you want to reorder it.
$commentService->reorderComments(
    $parentComment->type, // Type
    $parentComment->targetId, // Target ID
    $parentComment->id, // Parent ID
);

// OR

$commentService->reorderWith($childComment);

Comment With Ratings

If you want to add comment with ratings, you can simply add rating number to comment entity, and then update the origin rated item with new average rating:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */
$newComment = $commentService->addComment(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    'Comment Text...', // Content
    $user->id, // User ID or User entity
    extra: function (Comment $comment) use ($commentService) {
        $comment->rating = 4; // If user mark as 4 star
    }
);

// Update origin rated item
$orm->updateBatch(
    Target::class,
    [
        'rating_avg' => $commentService->calcAvgRatingWith($newComment),
        'rating_count' => $commentService->countWith($newComment),
    ],
    $targetId,
);

![note] If you need a like system without comments, you can use Rating entity without Comment entity, and simply use count() to count total likes. See Rating

Other Methods

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\CommentService $commentService */

// Create Comment Item
$comment = $commentService->createCommentItem($type, $targetId, 'text...', $user);

// count Comments
$count = $commentService->countComments($type, $targetId);

// Reorder 
$commentService->reorderComments($type, $targetId);

// Calc average rating
$avg = $commentService->calcAvgRating($type, $targetId);
$avg = $commentService->calcAvgRatingWith($comment);

// Check has commented
$comment = $commentService->getComment($type, $targetId);
$bool = $commentService->isCommented($type, $targetId);

// Remove comment
$commentService->removeComment($type, $targetId);

Rating

You can use Rating for the following purposes:

1. Like system: Users can like content to show their supports. In this case, the Rating's rank field can always be set to 1 as one LIKE. Afterwards, simply use count() to count the total likes.
2. Star rating system: Users can rate content with stars, e.g., from 1 to 5. In this case, the Rating's rank field can be set to the numeric star chosen by the user, and you can use calcAvgRank() to calculate the average.

Note

If you want users to leave comments while rating, it's recommended to use the comments table with a rating column, so you don't need a separate ratings table. See Comment With Ratings

Add a rating to a type:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\RatingService $ratingService */
$ratingService->addRating(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    $user->id, // User ID
);

Add rating if not rated, and configure Rating entity:

use Lyrasoft\Feedback\Entity\Rating;

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\RatingService $ratingService */
$ratingService->addRatingIfNotRated(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    $user->id, // User ID
    
    // The extra can be callback or array
    extra: function (Rating $rating) {
        $rating->rank = 4.5; // If user mark as 4.5 star
    }
);

Rating ordering:

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\RatingService $ratingService */
$newRating = $ratingService->addRating(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
    $user->id, // User ID or User entity
    extra: function (Rating $rating) use ($ratingService, $targetId) {
        $count = $ratingService->countWith($rating);
        // OR
        $count = $rating->count();
    
        // This optional if you want to set ordering to one comment
        $rating->ordering = $count + 1;
    }
);

// Update origin rated item
$orm->updateBatch(
    Target::class,
    ['rating' => $ratingService->calcAvgWith($rating)],
    $targetId,
);

// Or reorder all ratings of one target item.
$ratingService->reorderRatings(
    'flower', // Type
    $targetId, // Target ID
);
// OR
$ratingService->reorderWith($newRating);

Other Methods

/** @var \Lyrasoft\Feedback\Service\RatingService $ratingService */

// Calc average rank
$avg = $ratingService->calcAvgRank($type, $targetId);
$avg = $ratingService->calcAvgWith($rating);

// Get rating item or check is rated
$item = $ratingService->getRating($type, $targetId);
$bool = $ratingService->isRated($type, $targetId);

// Remove
$ratingService->removeRating($type, $targetId);

Rating AJAX Button

Add useRatingButtons() to front main.ts file:

import { useRatingButtons } from '@lyrasoft/feedback';

// ...

useRatingButtons();

Then uou can add button components everywhere in blade template:

<div class="card c-item-card">
    <x-rating-button
        type="item"
        :id="$item->id"
        :rated="$item->rated"
        class="..."
    ></x-rating-button>

    <div class="card-body">
        ...
    </div>
</div>

Available params:

Name	Type	Description
type	string or enum	The rating type
id	string or int	The item ID
rated	bool or int	Is this item rated by current user, will auto load from DB if without this params.
class-active	string	The button class if active.
class-inactive	string	The button class if inactive.
icon-active	string	The icon class if active.
icon-inactive	string	The button class if inactive.
title-active	string	The tooltip title if active.
title-inactive	string	The tooltip title if inactive.
tag	string	The button HTML tag.

AJAX Type Protect

By default, favorite package will not allow any types sent from browser.

You can configure allowed types in config file:

return [
    'feedback' => [
        // ...

        'rating' => [
            'ajax_type_protect' => true,
            'ajax_allow_types' => [
                'article',
                '...' // <-- Add your new types here
            ]
        ],
    ]
];

You can also set the ajax_type_protect to FALSE but we don't recommend to do this.

AJAX Events

You can listen events after rated actions:

// Select all favorite buttons, you can use your own class to select it.
const buttons = document.querySelectorAll('[uni-rating-button]');

for (const button of buttons) {
    button.addEventListener('rated', (e) => {
        u.notify(e.detail.message, 'success');

        // Available details
        e.detail.rated;
        e.detail.type;
        e.detail.task;
        e.detail.message;
    });
}

Or listen globally:

import { simpleNotify } from '@windwalker-io/unicorn-next';

document.addEventListener('rated', (e) => {
    if (e.detail.type === 'comment') {
        if (e.detail.favorited) {
            simpleNotify('已按讚', 'success');
        } else {
            simpleNotify('已收回讚', 'success');
        }
    }
});

Add Button to Vue App

Use uni-rating-button directive to auto enable button in Vue app.

<a href="javascript://"
    uni-favorite-button
    :data-rated="rated"
    :data-type="type"
    data-class-active=""
    data-class-inactive=""
    data-icon-active="fas fa-heart"
    data-icon-inactive="far fa-heart"
    data-title-active="..."
    data-title-inactive="..."
>
    <i></i>
</a>

Use RatingRepository

Join to List

use Lyrasoft\Feedback\Repository\RatingRepository;

    // In any repository

    public function getFrontListSelector(?User $user = null): ListSelector
    {
        $selector = $this->getListSelector();

        if ($user && $user->isLogin()) {
            RatingRepository::joinRating(
                $selector,
                'item',
                $user->id,
                'item.id'
            );
        }
        
        // ...

In blade:

@foreach ($items of $item)
<div>
    ...
    <x-rating-button
        type="item"
        :id="$item->id"
        :rated="$item->rated"
        class="..."
    ></x-rating-button>
    ...
</div>
@endforeach
