Traits, Helper functions, and scaffolding tools for Laravel packages & applications.

🚀 Quick Start: Project Scaffolding

Quickly set up GitHub Workflow, Actions and Docker:

composer require roberts/support
composer support:scaffold

This automatically generates:

• ✅ GitHub Actions workflows (tests, PHPStan, linting)
• ✅ Docker configuration for Cloud Run
• ✅ PHPStan configuration
• ✅ VS Code workspace settings

Features

Project Scaffolding

• Auto-detect project type (Laravel app or package)
• Smart detection of features (Flux, Filament, Twitter, Mail)
• One command to set up complete CI/CD pipeline
• Google Cloud Run deployment ready

Model Traits

• HasCreator
• HasUpdater

Model Traits for Status

• HasActiveStatus
• HasApplicationStatus
• HasApprovalStatus
• HasModeratorStatus
• HasOrderStatus
• HasProcessingStatus
• HasPublishingStatus
• HasSubscriptionStatus

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require roberts/support

Usage

On packages or Laravel applications that require this package, you can add the Traits to models like:

use HasCreator, HasUpdater, HasPublishingStatus;

You may only add 1 of the Status Traits since they all use the same status database column. They are not designed to work together but to replace the functionality with the Enum structures.

Expected Columns

When using any of the Status Traits on a model, add the following format for the status database column on your table:

• status (string (25 character max), nullable, index)

Note: Status traits automatically set appropriate default values when models are created (e.g., pending for moderator status, active for active status).

When using the HasCreator and/or HasUpdater traits on a model, add the following nullable columns to your table:

• creator_id (unsignedBigInteger, nullable)
• updater_id (unsignedBigInteger, nullable)

Example migration snippet:

Schema::table('your_table', function (Blueprint $table) {
	$table->string('status', 25)->nullable()->index();

	$table->foreignId('creator_id')->nullable()->constrained('users');
	$table->foreignId('updater_id')->nullable()->constrained('users');
});

The traits automatically:

• Set creator_id on model creating (when an authenticated user is present).
• Set updater_id on model saving (create and update) when an authenticated user is present.

Overriding the Auth Provider Model

By default, the creator & updater traits resolve the related user model from config('auth.providers.users.model'). If your application uses a different provider or model, ensure the config points to your user class. For example, in config/auth.php:

'providers' => [
	'users' => [
		'driver' => 'eloquent',
		'model' => App\Models\User::class,
	],
],

Or override at runtime (e.g., inside a service provider) if needed:

config(['auth.providers.users.model' => App\Domain\Auth\User::class]);

Enums

Status traits use enums with the following values, setting the first one on model creation:

• HasActiveStatus: active, inactive
• HasApplicationStatus: pending, started, verified, applied, accepted, rejected
• HasApprovalStatus: pending, submitted, approved, rejected
• HasModeratorStatus: pending, flagged, approved, rejected
• HasOrderStatus: cart, pending, checkout, paid, shipped, delivered, canceled
• HasProcessingStatus: pending, processing, completed, failed
• HasPublishingStatus: draft, scheduled, published, archived
• HasSubscriptionStatus: trial, active, canceled, expired
