README

When a Model from php-platform/persist is exposed as REST Resource (php-platform/restful), It is required that the REST End point to list all resources must support filter , sort and pagination

Models extending php-platform/persist supports filter , sort and pagination through arguments to PhpPlatform\Persist\Model::find($filters,$sort,$pagination,$where) method

So this library parses query parameters from rest endpoint to method arguments required by PhpPlatform\Persist\Model::find($filters,$sort,$pagination,$where)

How to use

$searchParams = PhpPlatform\SearchQueryParser\Parser::parse(PhpPlatform\RESTFul\HTTPRequest $request,string $modelClassName, array $excludeFromFullTextSearch);

where

• $request is the HTTPRequest object received in the rest service
• $modelClassName is the full name of the Model which is served as REST Resource
• $excludeFromFullTextSearch is the array of fields which needs to be excluded from performing full text search

returns

An instance of PhpPlatform\SearchQueryParser\FindParams

Parse rules
