Laravel withable-sortable

This Laravel package enables dynamic eager loading and sorting in your API controllers.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require amsoell/withable-sortable

Usage

Add the withable() and sortable() calls on any Eloquent queries in your API controllers to automatically enable eager loading and sorting through querystring parameters. An controllerless example:

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;

Route::get('/users', function () {
    $users = User::query()
        ->sortable()
        ->withable();

    return $users->paginate()->withQueryString();
});

• /users will return users sorted by the default (created_at in ascending order)
• /users?sort=email will return users sorted by email address
• /users?sort=email&direction=desc will return users sorted by email in descending order
• /users?with=posts will return users with a posts relationship eager loaded
• /users?with[]=posts&with[]=comments will return users with posts and comments relationships both eager loaded

If you want to specifically eager load some relationships while allowing additional eager loads via with=, you can specify them in your route method:

$users = User::query()->withable([
    'posts',
]);

You can also set the default sort parameters:

$users = User::query()->sortable([
    'updated_at',
    'asc',
]);

Even when setting default eager loads or sorts, they can be added to or overridden via querystring paramters.
