Laravel Model Settings

Laravel Model Settings is a package by Lorand Gombos to provide model settings configuration in a database field or a separate database table.

The package ships with two traits—settings in a field or table—that you can configure in a given model (one or the other, not both). First, the settings field is a JSON field:

 1// Settings field
 2
 3use Glorand\Model\Settings\Traits\HasSettingsField;
 4
 5class User extends Model
 6{
 7    use HasSettingsField;
 8
 9    //define only if you select a dirrerent name from the default
10    public $settingsFieldName = 'user_settings';
11
12}

And a separate settings table option:

1use Glorand\Model\Settings\Traits\HasSettingsTable;
2
3class User extends Model
4{
5    use HasSettingsTable;
6}

Here’s some basic usage examples in a model:

 1// Get all settings
 2$user->settings()->all();
 3
 4// Get a specific setting
 5$user->settings()->get('some.setting');
 6$user->settings()->get('some.setting', 'default value');
 7
 8// Add/Update
 9$user->settings()->apply((array)$settings);
10$user->settings()->set('some.setting', 'new value');
11$user->settings()->update('some.setting', 'new value');
12
13// Remove
14$user->settings()->delete('some.setting');
