Laravel 5.5 Dynamic Attributes

Overview

Add Additional Fields to your Models with a key value table

Install

composer require marmarait/laravel-dynamic-attributes

Usage

• add the Trait "HasDynamicAttributes" to your model

• in the method "getDynamicAttributes" return an array with the dynamic attributes and their field types. Available are:

  • string
  • text
  • int
  • double
  • object
  • date
  • time
  • datetime

• Use it as you normally would with static attributes.

Example: If you want your Users Model to have an additional field named "country" with type string: Add HasDynamicAttributes to your User model Make the getDynamicAttributes method return ['country'=>'string']

Set the field by assigning the property to the model:

$user->country='Austria';

Retrieving the Property is about the same:

echo $user->country; // 'Austria'
