Benefits of the Presenter Pattern

The Presenter pattern offers several key benefits:

• Code Separation: The presenter separates data manipulation logic from your models, preventing your models from becoming cluttered with presentation-related code.
• Cleaner Views: By formatting data in presenters, your views remain focused on displaying data rather than implementing logic.
• Reusability: Presenters enable you to reuse the same formatting logic across multiple views, ensuring consistent data representation.
• Maintainability: Isolating formatting logic in presenters simplifies future changes, making code maintenance smoother.

Installation

You can easily install the Laravel Presenter Package via Composer by executing the following command:

If you are using a Laravel version before 5.5, make sure to include the LaravelPresenterServiceProvider in your config/app.php file.

Creating a new Presenter

• To create a new presenter, you can use the following Artisan command:

  Replace {className} with the desired name for your presenter. This command will generate a new presenter class under the app/Presenters directory.

• Associating the Presenter by importing the HasPresenter trait into your model and set the $presenterName variable as follows:

Usage

Instead of duplicating the following logic all over your views and violating the SOLID principles:

Use the command php artisan make:presenter UserPresenter to create a new UserPresenter and place the presentation logic in it.

Then attach the UserPresenter to the User model and use the HasPresenter trait.

Now use the UserPresenter to separate the presentation logic from views and model.

Now you are ready to unleash the power of the Presenter Pattern.

In your views:

If the function has no args use the shorter syntax (snake case) without parentheses as if it was a property of the object.

If you want to add classes to the p tag for more customization.
