Informations about the package eloquent-decorator
Description
A simple Trait that implements the Decorator pattern on Laravel eloquent models.
Usage:
- Extend a model without inheritance (Composition vs Inheritance)
- Create multiple variations of a model
Example case study:
You often need multiple versions of each Image. Your base model (Image) handles Database, Relations etc.
Your decorated models (ie thumbnail, profileImage) may apply image manipulations to the original image to create variations. ie they can overide the src() method of the base class to point to a different file. All your decorated versions share the same record in the Database but my alter their representation/behavior!
More ideas:
- Base model:
User. Decorated Objects: Member, Moderator, SuperUser etc - Base model:
Article. Decorated Objects: FeaturedArticle, BlogPost,
Installation
Edit your project's composer.json file to require:
"require": {
"igaster/eloquent-decorator": "~1.0"

Step 2: Decorating an Eloquent model:
Need a constructor?
You have to override EloquentDecoratorTrait and create your own factory function. Dont forget to call self::wrap($object) at the end.
