Documents

Each Custom Type within Prismic should have a corresponding Document model in your project. Document models make it easy for you to query your Prismic repository and organise your code around your content models.

Defining Document Models

To get started, let's create a Document model. All Document models extend the WebHappens\Prismic\Document class.

The most basic and fundamental property of a Document model is its type property. This property indicates which Prismic Custom Type the Document model corresponds to:

<?php

namespace App;

use WebHappens\Prismic\Document;

class Article extends Document
{
    /**
     * The 'API ID' of the Custom Type associated with the document model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected static $type = 'article';
}

Registering Document Models

Before Document models are available they must be registered in a Service Provider using the Prismic::documents() method. Typically this would happen in the register method of your App\Providers\AppServiceProvider class.

use App\Article;
use WebHappens\Prismic\Prismic;

public function register()
{
    Prismic::documents([
        Article::class,
    ]);
}

Retrieving Documets

Once you have created a Document model and its associated content in Prismic, you are ready to start retrieving data from your repository.

All Documents

You may retrieve all Documents for a specific type using the all method. They will be returned inside a Laravel Collection object:

// Retrieve all Article Documents
$articles = Article::all();

Chunking Results

If you need to process a lot of Documents, use the chunk command. The chunk method will retrieve a "chunk" of Document models, feeding them to a given Closure for processing. This will conserve memory when working with large result sets:

// Process each Article in chunks of 100
Article::chunk(100, function ($articles) {
    foreach ($articles as $article) {
        //
    }
});

Please note that the largest chunk size is 100 due to a limit on the Prismic API.

Single Documents

In addition to retrieving all Documents for a given type, you may also retrieve single records by passing the Document ID into the find method. Instead of returning a Laravel Collection, this method returns a single Document instance:

// Retrive the Article with an ID of WAjgAygABN3B0a-a
$article = Article::find('WAjgAygABN3B0a-a');

Single Type Documents

If you have created a Single Type Document, a Homepage, for example, you may use the single method to retrieve the Document model instance, without having to pass a Document ID:

// Retrieve a Single Type Document
$homepage = Homepage::single();
