Laravel Master Model

Laravel Master Model is a powerful package for the Laravel framework that simplifies working with models, particularly in saving relations and uploading files.

This package is designed for developers who want to optimize the process of working with databases and files, reducing code complexity and enhancing performance.

Getting started

Requirements

PHP >= 8.1
Laravel >= 10

Installation

composer require kolirt/laravel-master-model

Setup

Publish config file

php artisan master-model:install

Use the MasterModel trait in your models

use Kolirt\MasterModel\MasterModel;

class Item extends Model
{
    use MasterModel;
}

Console commands

master-model:install - Install master model package
master-model:publish-config - Publish the config file

Use cases

Saving files

class Item extends Model
{
    use MasterModel;

    protected $fillable = [
        'image',
    ];
}

MasterModel automatically saves the file and deletes the old file, if it existed


class ExampleController extends Controller
{
    public function index(Request $request, $id)
    {
        $data = $request->validate([
            'image' => 'required|file',
        ]);

        $item = Item::query()->findOrFail($id);
        $item->update($data);
    }
}

You can specify folder and disk for each file

class Item extends Model
{
    use MasterModel;

    protected $fillable = [
        'image',
    ];
    
    protected string $upload_model_folder = 'items';

    protected array $upload_folders = [
        'image' => 'image',
    ];

    protected array $upload_disks = [
        'image' => 'public'
    ];
}

Saving files from third-party resources

You no longer need to worry about saving files from third-party resources, just put the response and MasterModel will save everything for you

class ExampleController extends Controller
{
    public function index($id)
    {
        $file1_url = 'https://png.pngtree.com/png-clipart/20230126/original/pngtree-fresh-red-apple-png-image_8930987.png';
        $response = \Illuminate\Support\Facades\Http::get($file1_url);

        $file2_url = 'https://cubanvr.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/ai-image-generators.webp';
        $client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();
        $response2 = $client->get($file2_url);

        Item::create([
            'image' => $response,
            'image2' => $response2
        ]);
    }
}

Deleting files

You can delete files by setting the field to null

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'image' => null
]);

To have files deleted automatically, delete data through the model, not through the builder, and don't forget to load the necessary relations in which you want to delete files

If there are files in the relationship and the relationship is deleted not through the model, the files won't be deleted and will clog up storage

$item = Item::query()->with(['phone', 'addresses'])->first();
/**
* All files in the model and in the loaded relations will be deleted
 */
$item->delete();

Saving `HasOne`, `MorphOne` relations

You can save HasOne, MorphOne relations in the same way as a file. If relation exists, it will be updated, otherwise it will be created

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'phone' => [ // hasOne, morphOne relation
        'number' => '1234567890'
    ]
]);

You can also delete the relation by setting it to null

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'phone' => null // hasOne, morphOne relation
]);

Saving `HasMany`, `MorphMany` relations

You can save HasMany, MorphMany relations in the same way as a file. If relations exists, it will be updated, otherwise it will be created

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'phones' => [ // hasMany, morphMany relations
        [ // will be created
            'number' => '1234567890'
        ],
        [ // will be updated (id = 1)
            'id' => 1,
            'number' => '0987654321'
        ]
    ]
]);

Saving `HasMany`, `MorphMany` relations with `sync` mode

You can also sync HasMany, MorphMany relations. Unspecified relations will be deleted

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'phones' => [ // hasMany, morphMany relations
        'mode' => 'sync', // not specified relations will be deleted
        'value' => [
            [ // will be created
                'number' => '1234567890'
            ],
            [ // will be updated (id = 1)
                'id' => 1,
                'number' => '0987654321'
            ]
        ]
    ]
]);

Saving `BelongsToMany` relation

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'categories' => [1, 2, 3] // belongsToMany relations
]);

$item->update([
    'categories' => [ // belongsToMany relation
        1 => ['name' => 'Category 1'], 
        2 => ['name' => 'Category 2'], 
        3 => ['name' => 'Category 3']
    ]
]);

Saving `BelongsToMany` relation with `sync` mode

You can sync the BelongsToMany relation. Everything that is not specified when saving will be deleted

$item = Item::query()->first();

$item->update([
    'categories' => [ // belongsToMany relation
        'mode' => 'sync', // not specified relations will be deleted
        'value' => [1, 2, 3]
    ]
]);

$item->update([
    'categories' => [ // belongsToMany relation
        'mode' => 'sync', // not specified relations will be deleted
        'value' => [
            1 => ['name' => 'Category 1'], 
            2 => ['name' => 'Category 2'], 
            3 => ['name' => 'Category 3']
        ]
    ]
]);

Response file

Use the responseFile method to return a file in a controller

class FileController extends Controller
{

    public function index()
    {
        $item = Item::query()->first();
        return $item->responseFile('image');
    }

}
