Installation

In order to install Bdgeocode, just run this command in your project:

composer require sandofvega/bdgeocode

Configuration

1. Publish models and migration file:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Sandofvega\Bdgeocode\BdgeocodeServiceProvider"

2. Run artisan migrate command:

php artisan migrate

After the migration, four new tables will be present:

• divisions
• districts
• thanas
• unions

3. Add Bdgeocode's seeder class to database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php:

use Sandofvega\Bdgeocode\Seeds\BdgeocodeSeeder;

class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
    public function run()
    {
        $this->call(BdgeocodeSeeder::class);
        //
    }
}

Now you are ready. When you run the seed command (e.g. db:seed or migrate:fresh --seed) the Bdgeocode's data will be inserted into your database.

Usage

You can get all data by using those models. E.g:

use App\District;

$districts = District::all();

There are relations bitween models. E. g:

use App\District;

$district = District::first(); // A district

$division = $district->division // Division for a district

$thanas = $district->thanas // All thana in a district

• Note: There is one division for a district so the relation name is division(singular), not divisions. And there are many thanas in a district so the relation name is thanas(plural), not thana. You must follow this rule to call every relation.
