README

Adds another place to put logic for models. Instead of cluttering up models with logic to display/format data, add them to a presenter!

This is a rewrite of laracasts/Presenter with some added functionality, commands, etc.

Install

Via Composer

$ composer require taylornetwork/presenter

Setup

Add the service provider to the providers array in config/app.php

'providers' => [

    TaylorNetwork\Presenter\PresenterServiceProvider::class,

],

Publish Config

$ php artisan vendor:publish

This will add config/presenter.php where you can define the namespace you want your presenter classes to be stored.

Usage

Create a presenter using the artisan command, for example a presenter for the User model.

$ php artisan make:presenter UserPresenter

This will create a presenter class you can add logic to that you don't want in the model or the view. Model attributes are accessible via $this->model

use TaylorNetwork\Presenter\Presenter;

class UserPresenter extends Presenter
{
    /**
     * Get the user's full name
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function fullName()
    {
        return $this->model->first_name . ' ' . $this->model->last_name;
    }

    /**
     * Get the time since the user signed up
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function userSince()
    {
        return $this->model->created_at->diffForHumans();
    }
}

You will need to add the presentable trait and a $presenter property to your model

use TaylorNetwork\Presenter\Presentable;
use App\Presenters\UserPresenter;

class User extends Model
{
    use Presentable;

    /**
     * Presenter Class
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $presenter = UserPresenter::class;

    // Code
}

You can access the presenter with present()

<h1>{{ $user->present()->fullName }}, you signed up {{ $user->present()->userSince }}</h1>
