Laravel Param Converter

Gets the Symfony @ParamConverter annotation working within Laravel 5.3+.

Installation

Install using composer.

composer require pm-connect/laravel-param-converter

Setup

Setup is extremely simple, just add the service provider to your app.php config.

\PmConnect\LaravelParamConverter\ServiceProvider::class,

You can also publish the config so you can add your own param converters.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="\PmConnect\LaravelParamConverter\ServiceProvider"

Annotation Registry Loader

Depending on the setup you have, you may need to setup doctrines AnnotationRegistry class and tell it how to autoload classes.

This can be done by adding the following into a boot method of a service provider.

AnnotationRegistry::registerLoader('class_exists');

Custom Converters

See the Symfony docs for how to create custom converters here.

Once created, just add the class to the param-converter.php config file (as long as you have published your config!) and away you go.
