README

You can build query on model accessor. Sort or filter by accessor, and at the same time it's a regular working accessor

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require a1dbox/laravel-model-accessor-builder

Usage

Use the HasAccessorBuilder trait in your model to provide work of accessor builder:

use A1DBox\Laravel\ModelAccessorBuilder\Concerns\HasAccessorBuilder;

class User extends Model
{
    use HasAccessorBuilder;
}

Create Accessor for attribute

Laravel 8.x accessor defining style

class User extends Model
{
    use HasAccessorBuilder;
    
    public function getFullNameAttribute()
    {
        return AccessorBuilder::make(
            fn (AccessorBuilder\BlueprintCabinet $cabinet) => $cabinet->trim(
                $cabinet->concat(
                    $cabinet->col('name'),
                    $cabinet->str(' '),
                    $cabinet->col('last_name'),
                )
            ),
        );
    }
}

As example, code above will do same as this one, when resolving accessor value:

return trim($this->name . ' ' . $this->last_name);

Example #1

Here, the full_name attribute contained in model $attributes after query And when using accessor ->full_name, the value will be taken from $attributes

$user = User::query()
    ->withAccessor('full_name')
    ->find(1);

echo $user->full_name; //John Doe

SQL Query executed:

SELECT
    *,
    trim(concat(name, ' ', last_name)) AS full_name
FROM users WHERE id = 1

Example #2

Here, the full_name attribute NOT contained in $attributes variable of model, and when using accessor $user->full_name, the value will be built from model $attributes

$user = User::find(1);

echo $user->full_name; //John Doe

SQL Query executed:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = 1

Example #3

Get all users ordered by full_name

$users = User::query()
    ->withAccessor('full_name')
    ->orderBy('full_name')
    ->get();

Example #4

Filter users by full_name

$users = User::query()
    ->withAccessor('full_name')
    ->where('full_name', 'John Doe')
    ->get();

You can pass array to withAccessor method

$users = User::query()
    ->withAccessor(['full_name', 'full_address'])
    ->get();
