Laravel Global Settings

Store general settings like website name, logo url, contacts in the database easily. Everything is cached, so no extra query is done. You can also get fresh values from the database directly if you need.

Installation

Install the package via composer

composer require dd4you/lgs

Setup

php artisan dd4you:install-lgs

Migrate the database

php artisan migrate

I have also added seeder for some general settings a website needs. Seed the database using command:

php artisan db:seed --class=SettingsSeeder

Usage/Examples

To store settings on database

settings()->set(
        'key',
        ['label'=>'Label Name','value'=>'Value Name']
    );

You can also set multiple settings at once

settings()->set([
        'key1'=>[
            'label'=>'Label Name',
            'value'=>'Value Name',
            'type'=>settings()->fileType()
            ],
        'key2'=>[
            'label'=>'Label Name',
            'value'=>'Value Name'
            ],
    ]);

You can retrieve the settings from cache using any command below

settings('key');
settings()->get('key');
settings()->get(['key1', 'key2']);

Want the settings directly from database? You can do it,

settings('key',true);
settings()->get('key',true);
settings()->get(['key1', 'key2'],true);

Getting all the settings stored on database

settings()->getAll();

You can use the settings on blade as

{{ settings('site_name')['value'] }}

Or, if you have html stored on settings

{!! settings('footer_text')['value'] !!}
{!! settings('footer_text')['value'] Copyright Date('Y') !!}

Finally, If you have changed something directly on database, Don't forget to clear the cache.

php artisan cache:clear
