Entity
Entity
presents a table in your database.
Example
namespace Vendor\Domain\Entity;
use Pckg\Database\Entity;
use Vendor\Domain\Record\User;
class Users extends Entity
{
protected $record = User::class;
}
Usage
Relations
All relations should be defined as an Entity
method. See > Relations for more examples.
Scopes
You can extract and reuse common scopes to methods.
// ...
public function scopeForGuest()
{
return $this->where('active')
->where('published_at', date('Y-m-d H:i:s'), '<=');
}
// ...
You can then call scopes in your controllers, services or everywhere else.
$filteredUsers = (new Users())
->forGuest()
->all();
Extensions
You can extend the Entity
Factory
Instead of creating the entity with new
, you can also create an entity from the factory.
use Pckg\Database\Entity\Factory as EntityFactory;
use Vendor\Domain\Entity\Users;
$usersEntity = EntityFactory::create(Users::class);
$usersCollection = $usersEntity->all();
$usersRecord = $usersCollection->first();
