README
A package for creating taxonomies and terms to categorise Eloquent models
Why is this package helpful?
This package allow you to create taxonomies and terms and relate them to Laravel models, similar to WordPress
- Create Taxonomy groups to categorise your models
- Add terms to models and to taxonomies
- Use your localisation files to translate taxonomy and term names
- Find all models relating to a given taxonomy or term
Unlike other popular tag packages for Laravel this one supports MariaDB.
Install
You can install this package via composer:
composer require myerscode/laravel-taxonomies
Setup
If using Laravel 5.5 or above, the service provider will automatically be registered.
If using Laravel 5.4 add Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\ServiceProvider
to the providers
array in config/app.php
Publish the migration with:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\ServiceProvider" --tag="migrations"
After the migration has been published, run the migrations to create the tags
, taxonomies
and taggables
tables.
Usage
To make an Eloquent model taggable just add the \Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\HasTaxonomy
trait to it:
class Post extends Model { use \Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\HasTaxonomy; ... }
Terms
Are the meta tags you want to add to your model, giving them a definable characteristic.
Taxonomies
Are are a way of grouping your terms together, categorising your collection.
For example a Taxonomy
called Colours
could contain terms such as Red
, Yellow
, Green
and Blue
.
Localisation
You can get translated names from your terms and taxonomies by setting localised language files.
Advance Usage
You can change the default Taxonomy
or Term
class by publishing the config, and modifying the classes to your custom models.
Publish the config file with:
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Myerscode\Laravel\Taxonomies\ServiceProvider" --tag="config"
