Contacts for Laravel

Typed, validated contacts for any Laravel model — emails, phones, addresses, URLs, social handles and custom kinds on a user, company or order. Values are normalized before they are stored, every owner keeps one primary per kind, and contacts can be verified with a code and exported as vCard.

Installation

Requires PHP 8.4, Laravel 12 or 13.

composer require roundly-consulting/contacts-for-laravel
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="addresses-migrations"
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="connections-migrations"
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="contacts-migrations"
php artisan migrate

If your owner models have UUID/ULID keys, set CONTACTS_KEY_TYPE before migrating.

Usage

Add HasContacts to any model:

use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Concerns\HasContacts;

class User extends Model
{
    use HasContacts;
}

Add, read and export contacts through the facade:

use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Enums\ContactType;
use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Facades\Contacts;

Contacts::for($user)->email(' [email protected] ')->label('Work')->primary()->add();
Contacts::for($user)->phone('+421 900 000 000')->label('Mobile')->add();

Contacts::for($user)->primary(ContactType::Email)?->value;   // '[email protected]'
Contacts::for($user)->ofType(ContactType::Phone);              // ordered by position
Contacts::for($user)->vCard();                                 // a vCard 3.0 string

Verify a contact — the package issues the code, your app delivers it:

use RoundlyConsulting\Contacts\Events\ContactVerificationRequested;

Event::listen(function (ContactVerificationRequested $event): void {
    // send $event->plainToken to $event->contact->value by SMS or mail
});

$phone = Contacts::for($user)->primary(ContactType::Phone);

Contacts::verification()->request($phone);          // a 6-digit code, stored only as a hash
Contacts::verification()->confirm($phone, $code);   // sets verified_at, or throws
