Lara Query Kit utilizes the Eloquent model. PHP Trait and Laravel local scope are used to implement this utilitiy

PHP Traits

PHP only supports single inheritance: a child class can inherit only from one single parent.

So, what if a class needs to inherit multiple behaviors? OOP traits solve this problem.

Traits are used to declare methods that can be used in multiple classes. Traits can have methods and abstract methods that can be used in multiple classes, and the methods can have any access modifier (public, private, or protected).

Laravel local scope

Local scopes allow you to define common sets of constraints that you may easily re-use throughout your application. To define a scope, simply prefix an Eloquent model method with scope.

Installation & Configuration

1-Install cuongnd88/lara-query-kit using Composer.

composer require cuongnd88/lara-query-kit

2-Push lara-query-kit into your application.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Cuongnd88\LaraQueryKit\LaraQueryKitServiceProvider"

3-App\Traits\QueryKit.php is already to pump your performance. Please add QueryKit into the model

. . . .
use App\Traits\QueryKit;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
    use HasOtpAuth;
    use HasGuardian;
    use QueryKit;

. . . .
}

Available methods

Let discuss each method available on the Query Kit.

• insertDuplicate()
• getTableColumns()
• exclude()
• filter()
• searchFulltext()

insertDuplicate

insertDuplicate(array $data, array $insertKeys, array $updateKeys): Insert new rows or update existed rows.

    public function upsert()
    {
        $data = [
            ['name' => "Dean Ngo", 'email' => 'dinhcuongngo@gmail.com', 'mobile' => '84905005533', 'password' => Hash::make('123456')],
            ['name' => "Robert Neil", 'email' => '1111@gmail.com', 'mobile' => '84905001122', 'password' => Hash::make('123456')],
        ];
        User::insertDuplicate($data, ['name', 'email', 'mobile', 'password'], ['name', 'email', 'mobile']);
    }

getTableColumns

getTableColumns(): Get the array of columns.

    public function listTableColumns()
    {
        $columns = User::getTableColumns();
        dump($columns);
    }

exclude

exclude(array $columns): Retrieve a subset of the output data.

You should define which model attributes you want to exclude. You may do this using the $excludable property on the model.

. . . .
use App\Traits\QueryKit;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
    use HasOtpAuth;
    use HasGuardian;
    use QueryKit;

    protected $excludable = ['deleted_at', 'created_at', 'updated_at'];

. . . .
}

    public function listUsers()
    {
        $data = User::exclude()->get()->toArray();
        dump($data);
    }

Or pass a array of excludable columns as argument

    public function listUsers()
    {
        $users = User::exclude(['deleted_at', 'created_at', 'updated_at'])
                        ->get()->toArray();
        dump($users);
    }

filter

filter(array $params): Get the result with filter conditions.

You may use the fitler method on a query builder instance to add where clauses to the query.
The $filterable property should contain an array of conditions that you want to execute searching. The key of filterable array corresponds to table columns, whereas the value is condition to call where clauses. The most basic condition requires two arguments:

• The first argument is simple where clause such as: where, orWhere, whereBetween, whereNotBetween, whereIn, whereNotIn, whereNull, whereNotNull, orWhereNull , orWhereNotNull, whereDate, whereMonth, whereDay, whereYear, whereTime

• The second argument is an operator, which can be any of the database's supported operators.

Exceptionally, the third argument is required with the operator is LIKE, it is for a specified pattern

For convenience, if you verify only column in fiterable property, the default clause is where with = operator

. . . .
use App\Traits\QueryKit;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
    use HasOtpAuth;
    use HasGuardian;
    use QueryKit;

    protected $filterable = [
        'id' => ['whereBetween'],
        'email',
        'name' => ['orWhere', 'LIKE', '%{name}%'],
    ];

. . . .
}

    public function filter()
    {
        $where = [
            'id' => [1,5],
            'email' => 'dinhcuongngo@gmail.com',
            'name' => 'ngo',
        ];

        $data = User::->filter($where)->get()->toArray();
    }

Dynamically, you can call filterableCondition() and assign the filterable conditions

    public function filter()
    {
        $filterable = [
            'email',
            'name' => ['orWhere', 'LIKE', '%{name}%'],
            'deleted_at' => ['whereNull'],
        ];

        $where = [
            'email' => 'dinhcuongngo@gmail.com',
            'name' => 'ngo',
            'deleted_at' => '',
        ];

        $data = User::filterableCondition($filterable)
                        ->filter($where)
                        ->get()
                        ->toArray();
    }

searchFulltext

searchFulltext($value, $mode = NATURAL_LANGUAGE): Run full-text queries against character-based data in MySQL tables.

There are four modes of full-text searches:

• NATURAL_LANGUAGE (is default): IN NATURAL LANGUAGE MODE
• NATURAL_LANGUAGE_QUERY: IN NATURAL LANGUAGE MODE WITH QUERY EXPANSION
• BOOLEAN_MODE: IN BOOLEAN MODE
• QUERY_EXPANSION: WITH QUERY EXPANSION

The $searchable property should contain an array of conditions that you search full-

. . . .
use App\Traits\QueryKit;

class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Notifiable;
    use HasOtpAuth;
    use HasGuardian;
    use QueryKit;


    protected $excludable = ['deleted_at', 'created_at', 'updated_at'];

    protected $searchable = [
        'name', 'address'
    ];

. . . .
}

    public function search()
    {
        $data = User::searchFulltext('ngo')->exclude()->get()->toArray();
        dump($data);
    }

You flexibly add matched columns by searchableCols()

    public function search()
    {
        $data = User::searchableCols(['name', 'address'])
                        ->searchFulltext('ngo')
                        ->exclude()
                        ->get()
                        ->toArray();
        dump($data);
    }

You must create a full-text index on the table before you run full-text queries on a table. The full-text index can include one or more character-based columns in the table.

ALTER TABLE `users` ADD FULLTEXT(`name`, `address`);
