Informations about the package settings
Settings
A basic cache enabled Setting model, migration and helper for your Laravel project. It uses a database to store settings for your application. When retrieving settings they are stored in the Laravel cache to prevent unnecessary database queries.
Installation
To install the package use
composer require nickdekruijk/settings
Configuration
If you don't like the default configuration options publish the config file and change the settings.php file in your Laravel app/config folder.
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=config --provider="NickDeKruijk\Settings\ServiceProvider"
Usage
Retrieving settings
If the setting table is created (run php artisan migrate) and you added your first setting you can use setting('key'); from anywhere in your application. The setting helper also accepts a default value in case the key isn't present in the database like setting('key', 'defaultvalue');. You can call NickDeKruijk\Settings\Setting::get($key) too.
Retrieving a setting as array
When you have a setting with a value like this:
You can have it returned as an array using
setting('key', null, '=')
which will return this array
Adding settings
To update of create a new setting you use the setting helper with an array like setting(['key' => 'value']); or call NickDeKruijk\Settings\Setting::set([$key => $value]);. To include description you can use setting(['key' => ['value' => 1, 'description' => 'string']]);.
The setting will be added to the database or updated if it already exists. The Setting Model also triggers an event on updated and created to store the new value in the cache.
