Rate users, posts or other models with ease. You can even give a rating to a user for their role on other models i.e., post author or post illustator.
You can install this package via composer using this command:
composer require dorvidas/laravel-ratings
Include service provider and config into bootstrap/app.php
:
$app->register(\Dorvidas\Ratings\RatingsServiceProvider::class);
$app->configure('ratings');
You can install this package via composer using this command:
composer require dorvidas/laravel-ratings
Add service provider:
Dorvidas\Ratings\RatingsServiceProvider::class,
Publish vendor files:
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=public --force
In order to rate a model you need to access [RatingBuilder
](#API of rating builder) instance.
This can be done in several ways:
$builder = new \Dorvidas\Ratings\RatingBuilder;
$builder->model($model)->give(5);
Rate::model($model)->give(5);
\Dorvidas\Ratings\RateableTrait
trait method: $post->rate()->give(5);
model($model)
- set what you will give rating for. When using via trait this can be ommited, because we already know the model we will rate.give(5)
- set the rating. The return value is \Dorvidas\Ratings\Models\Rating
model.by($user)
- set who is rating model. If skipped authorised user is used.on($model)
- this is used to define what a user is rated for.
Speaking in Laravel terminology we define on which model we rate a user. Below example of rating a user for post:$post = Post::first();
$user = User::first();
$user->rate()->on($post)->give(5);
as($role)
- this is used to define what was a role of a user.
Speaking in Laravel terminology we define which model's column holds the user ID.
If omitted it is expected that the column is user_id
.
An real life example could be giving different ratings for post author and illustrator:$author = User::first();
$illustrator = User::skip(1)->first();
$author->rate()->on($post)->as('author_id')->give(5);
$illustrator()->rate()->on($post)->as('illustrator_id')->give(5);
Ratings are retrieved via \Dorvidas\Ratings\Rating
model.
Model ratings can be retrieved by querying ratings
relations on a model.
Relations is polymorphic.
Don't forget to add \Dorvidas\Ratings\MOdels\RateableTrait
for it to work.
model
- name of the rated model.model_id
- ID of rated model.on_model
- this is usually used when we rate a User and want to define what for (on which model) we rate him i.e., on "Post".on_model_id
- ID of the model we rate model. If we rate use on "Post" this would be post ID.on_model_column
- when rating using on model, with this we define what column defines user id. By default this is user_id
.rated_by
- ID of the user who rated.rating
- actual rating.of
- filter ratings of a model. It filter by model
and model_id
columns.on
- filter ratings on specific model. It filter by on_model
and on_model_id
columns.as
- filter ratings by role. It filter by on_model_column
column.model
- filter by model
column.modelId
- filter by model_id
column.onModel
- filter by model on_model
column.onModelId
- filter by on_model_id
column.An basic exampe of getting rating list of a "Post":
$post = Post::first();
$ratings = Rating::of($post)->get();
If there is no model object, you can pass model ID and model type via scopes modelId
and model
:
$postId = 1;
$ratings = Rating::model(Post::class)->modelId($modelId)->get();
//Or doing where statements
$ratings = Rating::where('model', Post::class)->where('model_id, $postId)->get();
If we want to get ratings of a user on specific model:
$user = User::first();
$post = Post::first();
$user->ratings()->on($post)->first(); //Returns Rating model instance
$user->ratings()->on($post)->first()->rating; //Returns actual rating
If we want to get ratings of a user on specific model for a specific role:
$user = User::first();
$post = Post::first();
$user->ratings()->on($post)->as('author_id')->first();
Rating aggregates are stored in table rating_aggregates
.
If class is using trait RateableTrait
you can get aggregates by querying polymorphic relationship:
$model->rating_aggregates;
Whenever a rating is created an \Dorvidas\Ratings\Events\RatingCreatedEvent
event is thrown.
There is also a listener \Dorvidas\Ratings\Listeners\RecalculateRatingAggregatesListener
which updates aggregate entry.
So don't forget to register those events and listener.
database_prefix
- allows to add database prefix.
