README

A PHP package mainly developed for Laravel to manage specific accessors and mutators for Json and Date(Carbon).
(This is for Laravel 5+. For Laravel 4.2)
(So you can skip to add accessors and mutators for date and json.)

Installation

Add this package name in composer.json

"require": {
  "sukohi/springbok": "2.*"
}

Execute composer command.

composer update

Usage

Simple Way

In your model, set Springbok instead of Eloquent and add a member variable named "convert_attributes". (Springbok extends Eloquent.)

<?php

use \Sukohi\Springbok\Springbok;
class Appointment extends Springbok {

    protected $convert_attributes = [
        'started_at' => 'date',
        'member_ids' => 'json'
    ];

}

Now you also can get/set DB values simply like the below.

// Get

$appointment = \Appointment::first();
print_r($appointment->started_at);

/* Output

    Carbon\Carbon Object
    (
        [date] => 2015-06-22 00:00:00.000000
        [timezone_type] => 3
        [timezone] => Asia/Tokyo
    )

*/

print_r($appointment->member_ids);

/* Output

    Array
    (
        [0] => 1
        [1] => 2
        [2] => 3
    )

*/


// Set

$appointment->started_at = '2015-06-25';    // You also can set Carbon instance.
$appointment->member_ids = [2, 3, 5];       // You can directly set array values.
$appointment->save();
