Storing your models in a json file rather than in database (single or few lines recording) can be a good option.
This package saves you to create a table for a ridiculous amount of lines, improves the data recovery performances, and allows you to store and access to your models from a json files as you would do it in database.

To read before use

Please keep in mind that :

• The purpose of this package is to store your model instances in json.
• Consequently, the json file is always entirely read when you access to your data
• Consequently, you should NOT use this package if you have a lot of instances to store, it could cause performance issues rather than improve it.
• All the query-related and model-related functionalities are not available (especially those which use database), this package has been made for quite simple use cases.
• This package enables you to manipulate models as if it they would been stored in database but it always uses the Illuminate\Support\Collection methods methods under the hood.

Installation

• Install the package with composer :

• Laravel 5.5+ uses Package Auto-Discovery, so doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider. If you don't use auto-discovery or if you use a Laravel 5.0- version, add the package service provider in the register() method from your app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php :

Usage

First, add the ModelJsonStorage trait in your model.

Then, just manipulate your model normally.
After a storage, you will see a json file named with your model title in the path defined in the model-json-storage config file.

Customize configuration

To personalize the package configuration, you have to publish it first with the following script :

Then, open the published package configuration file (config/model-json-storage.php) and override the default configuration by setting your own values for the following items :

• json storage path
• ... that's all for now.

API
