Searching models
With the models prepared you can search them like this:
Search like default queries
This Search methos is compatable with any eloquent methods and Paginatation like laravel default queries. Such as,
Simple Search
Simple search uses eloquent WHERE and sql LIKE operator to search for a specified pattern in a column. By default, this package uses it and No additional configuration is needed. Just follow above instructions to use Simple Search.
MySQL Full-text Search
Full-Text Search in MySQL server lets users run full-text queries against character-based data in MySQL tables. It is a powerful features that allows searching text efficiently accross multiple columns. It provides searching functionalites like Algolia but more native to MySQL. To learn more see here. From version 4, Laravel doesn't support FULLTEXT indexes by default. So, a full-text index must be created on the table before running full-text queries on a table.
If you want to use it, then you will have to publish to package in order to enable it from config.
Publishing
You can publish everything at once:
Configuration
After publishing the package you will find, larasearch.php configuration file in the config folder.
Here, the 'formula' is the key to determine this project's search type. Currently there are two types of configuration, 'fulltext' (FullText Search) and 'like' (Simple Search).
You can directly assign formula type in larasearch.php or use .env and assign value to 'LARA_SEARCH_TYPE' alias.
By default, this package uses FullText Search, you have to publish the package and follow below configuration.
Setup Full-Text Search
To use Full-text search, only additional full-text index is needed. Rest of the searching process is same.
- Fulltext search can only be used with MySQL 5.6+, else the Database Engine must be set to MyISAM instead of InnoDB.
- Then set up the migration and add the Full-Text index.
NOTE: Here, fulltext_index (first_name, last_name, email) must have to be same as the protected $searchable columns / array added in the model.
Then, run the migrations.
VoalΓ‘! The setup is done. Now The powrfull fulltext search can be used easily by this package following the initial usage.
