Export Large Amounts of Data into Feeds with the Feeds Package for Laravel

Published on September 15th, 2025 by Paul Redmond

The Feeds package for Laravel by Andrey Helldar is an easy and fast way to export large amounts of data into feeds for marketplaces and other consumers. At the core of this package are feeds, which you can generate with the provided make:feed Artisan command. Once you create a feed, you can define how it works:

namespace App\Feeds;
 
use App\Feeds\Items\UserFeedItem;
use App\Models\User;
use DragonCode\LaravelFeed\Enums\FeedFormatEnum;
use DragonCode\LaravelFeed\Feeds\Feed;
use DragonCode\LaravelFeed\Feeds\Items\FeedItem;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Builder;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
 
class UserFeed extends Feed
{
    protected FeedFormatEnum $format = FeedFormatEnum::Json;
 
    public function builder(): Builder
    {
        return User::query()
            ->whereNotNull('email_verified_at')
            ->where('created_at', '>', now()->subYear());
    }
 
    public function item(Model $model): FeedItem
    {
        return new UserFeedItem($model);
    }
}

Along with the UserFeed class, is the UserFeedItem class, which defines each feed item:

namespace App\Feeds\Items;
 
use DragonCode\LaravelFeed\Feeds\Items\FeedItem;
 
/** @property-read \App\Models\User $model */
class UserFeedItem extends FeedItem
{
    public function toArray(): array
    {
        return [
            'name'  => $this->model->class,
            'email' => $this->model->email,
        ];
    }
}

These feeds are generated via the feed:generate command, which produces feeds in static files (stored in the public folder by default). The documentation includes recipes for common formats, such as XML sitemaps, RSS, and more.
