The Golonka\BBCodeParser
package will help you with parsing BBCode.
Via Composer
$ composer require golonka/bbcodeparser
To parse some text it's as easy as this!
$bbcode = new Golonka\BBCode\BBCodeParser;
echo $bbcode->parse('[b]Bold Text![/b]');
// <strong>Bold Text!</strong>
Would like the parser to not use all bbcodes? Just do like this.
$bbcode = new Golonka\BBCode\BBCodeParser;
echo $bbcode->only('bold', 'italic')
->parse('[b][u]Bold[/u] [i]Italic[/i]![/b]');
// <strong>[u]Bold[/u] <em>Italic</em>!</strong>
echo $bbcode->except('bold')
->parse('[b]Bold[/b] [i]Italic[/i]');
// [b]Bold[/b] <em>Italic</em>
The integration into Laravel is really easy, and the method is the same for both Laravel 4 and Laravel 5.
Just open your app.php
config file.
In there you just add this to your providers array
'Golonka\BBCode\BBCodeParserServiceProvider'
And this to your facades array
'BBCode' => 'Golonka\BBCode\Facades\BBCodeParser'
The syntax is the same as if you would use it in vanilla PHP but with the BBCode::
before the methods.
Here are some examples.
// Simple parsing
echo BBCode::parse('[b]Bold Text![/b]');
// Limiting the parsers with the only method
echo BBCode::only('bold', 'italic')
->parse('[b][u]Bold[/u] [i]Italic[/i]![/b]');
// <strong>[u]Bold[/u] <em>Italic</em>!</strong>
// Or the except method
echo BBCode::except('bold')
->parse('[b]Bold[/b] [i]Italic[/i]');
// [b]Bold[/b] <em>Italic</em>
