Appointments for Laravel

A scheduling toolkit for Laravel: book appointments with durations and time zones, attach any Eloquent model as a participant, prevent double-bookings, drive a guarded status lifecycle, generate recurring series and export standards-compliant .ics calendars. Venues, guest contacts, booking approvals and post-visit reviews come built in.

Installation

Requires PHP 8.4, Laravel 12 or 13.

composer require roundly-consulting/appointments-for-laravel
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="appointments-migrations"
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="approvals-migrations" --tag="contacts-migrations" --tag="reviews-migrations" --tag="media-migrations"
php artisan migrate

The migrations are not loaded automatically, and the companion packages' migrations are needed too. If your participant models have UUID/ULID keys, set APPOINTMENTS_KEY_TYPE before migrating.

Usage

Book an appointment with its participants:

use RoundlyConsulting\Appointments\Enums\ParticipantRole;
use RoundlyConsulting\Appointments\Facades\Appointments;

$appointment = Appointments::schedule('Project kickoff')
    ->startingAt('2026-07-01 17:30', timezone: 'Europe/Bratislava')
    ->lasting(90)                                   // minutes; or ->until('2026-07-01 19:00')
    ->withParticipant($host, ParticipantRole::Organiser)
    ->withParticipant($guest)
    ->preventConflicts()                            // refuse a double-booking
    ->create();

Then move it through its lifecycle and export it:

use Carbon\CarbonImmutable;

$booking = Appointments::for($appointment);

$booking->confirm();                                                // pending → confirmed
$booking->reschedule(CarbonImmutable::parse('2026-07-02 10:00'));   // keeps the duration
$booking->participants()->add($colleague);

Appointments::isAvailable($guest, $appointment->starts_at, $appointment->ends_at); // false
$booking->ics();                                                    // an RFC 5545 calendar
