README

Allow you to dynamically add attributes to your eloquent models at runtime.

Installation

composer require paulhenri-l/laravel-dynamic-attributes

Usage

You'll first need to add the HasDynamicAttributesTrait to your model.

class Member extends Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model
{
    use PaulhenriL\LaravelDynamicAttributes\HasDynamicAttributes;
}

Then you can register dynamic fields from your constructor or any other place that will get called at runtime.

A good place for that is from the initialize method of a trait.

class Member extends Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model
{
    use PaulhenriL\LaravelDynamicAttributes\HasDynamicAttributes;

    public function __construct(array $attributes = [])
    {
        parent::__construct($attributes);

        $this->registerDynamicAttribute(
            'my_dynamic_attribute',
            function ($key) {
                return "Trying to get {$key}";
            },
            function ($key, $value) {
                echo "Setting {$key}";
            }
        );
    }
}

You can now set and get from your dynamic attribute:

$member = new Member();
$member->my_dynamic_attribute = 'Hello';
$member->my_dynamuc_attribute;
