v0.1.0

Typed, extensible custom fields for Eloquent models, with filtering and sorting.
Your product defines the fields at runtime, your users fill them in, and the package
stores every value in a typed column, validates it, and exposes it to a request as a
filter and as a sort. Headless: no controllers, no routes, no UI.

Getting started

composer require plin-code/laravel-custom-fields
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="laravel-custom-fields"
php artisan migrate

Set key_type and morph_key_type before migrating. Both accept id, uuid or ulid
and default to id. See the README.

What is in it

• Twelve field types: text, textarea, email, url, phone, number, decimal, boolean,
  date, datetime, select, multiselect. Each owns its storage column, validation rules,
  serialization, default and the query operations it declares.
• Your own types: implement FieldType, register it, done. No change to the core.
• Stable slugs and option keys: a name can be renamed and an option deactivated
  without touching the values already stored.
• Partial and complete validation: a PATCH validates only what it sends, while a
  complete write validates the state the record ends up with, stored values included.
• Filtering and sorting through spatie/laravel-query-builder: equals, in, contains,
  greater_than, less_than, between, is_null, is_not_null, contains_any, contains_all.
  A field only ever exposes the operations its type can serve.
• Configurable keys, tables, models and connections, plus five events and factories.
• English and Italian validation messages.
