Laravel Rest Api now supports Laravel Scout

With the latest release of Laravel Rest Api, the quick and easy way to manage your Api in Laravel, a native integration of Laravel Scout has been released.

Now, just by specifying "search.text.value" in your search, you are able to make a full text search from your front-end side:

// (POST) api/posts/search
{
    "text": {
        "value": "my full text search"
    }
}

#Fully integrates with other Laravel Rest Api features

By using full text search you have some small limitations on the arguments you can provide but this doesn`t restrict other features which allow you to perform the following query :

// (POST) api/posts/search
{
    "text": {
        "value": "my full text search"
    },
    "filters": [
        {
            "field": "type", "operator": "=", "value": "romance"
        }
    ],
    "sorts": [
        {"field": "user_id", "direction": "desc"},
        {"field": "id", "direction": "asc"}
    ],
    "selects": [
        {"field": "id"}
    ],
    "includes": [
        {
            "relation": "posts",
            "filters": [
                 {"field": "id", "operator": "in", "value": [1, 3]}
            ],
            "limit": 2
        },
        {
            "relation": "user",
            "filters": [
                {
                    "field": "languages.pivot.boolean",
                    "operator": "=",
                    "value": true
                }
            ]
        }
    ],
    "aggregates": [
        {
            "relation": "stars",
            "type": "max",
            "field": "rate",
            "filters": [
                {"field": "approved", "value": true}
            ]
        }
    ],
    "instructions": [
      {
        "name": "odd-even-id",
        "fields": [
          { "name": "type", "value": "odd" }
        ]
      }
    ],
    "page": 2,
    "limit": 10
}
