FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package parentity

Parentity

Parentity is a package that allows the use of MTI (Multi-Table Inheritance) entities in Laravel 5.7+ using Eloquent models.

Installation

Usage

  1. Create parent model table with the following fields:

    Note: Use the proper id type for your child models (unsignedInteger, unsignedBigInteger, ...).

  2. Create parent model that extends Models and uses IsMtiParentModeltrait:

    Notes:

    • The $childTypeAliases array is optional. It allows to create child models using an alias instead of the full qualified class name.
    • The $ownAttributes array is optional. It allows the proxying of get and set calls between parent and child models (instead of $customer->entity->last_name it allows to use $customer->last_name). It is recommended to specify this array so that everything works neatly.
  3. Create the child model(s) that extends Models and uses IsMtiChildModel trait:

    Notes:

    • All fields are mandatory so that the child model knows how to access the parent model.

Model creation

Creating a model from the parent class

To create a model from the parent class you need to specify the entity type before the attributes.

Creating a model from the child class

The best way to create a model is from the child classes. Just include all the models (parent and child) attributes.

In both cases a parent and a linked child will be created with the given attribute values, which will be stored in each model's table.

Model properties

There are two ways that we can access the model properties: explicitly or implicitly.

Explicit properties

When using explicit properties we explicitly ask for the parent or the entity property:

Outputs:

Implicit properties

If set up correctly, instead of using the explicit property calls we can use the shorter version which implicitly proxies the call to the parent or child model:

Outputs:
