laravel-ltree

LTree Extension (PostgreSQL) for Laravel.

Installation

Run this command to install:

php composer.phar require umbrellio/laravel-ltree

How to use

Implement your Eloquent\Model from LTreeModelInterface and use LTreeModelTrait.

Use LTreeService for build path:

1. when create model: createPath(LTreeModelInterface $model)
2. when update model: updatePath(LTreeModelInterface $model) for update path for model and children
3. when delete model: dropDescendants(LTreeModelInterface $model) for delete children models

The get() method returns LTreeCollection, instead of the usual Eloquent\Collection.

LTreeCollection has a toTree() method that converts a flat collection to a tree.

LTreeResourceCollection & LTreeResource, which take LTreeCollection as an argument, will also be useful.
