Add Reactions Functionality to Your App With Laravel Reactions

The Laravel Reactions package is a simple and flexible package to add reaction functionality to any Eloquent model in your Laravel application. It provides traits needed to react to a model, define a model that is the "reactor", and queries related to model reactions.

Laravel Reactions is a simple and flexible package that enables you to add reaction functionality (such as 👍, ❤️, 😂, etc.) to any Eloquent model in your Laravel application. Whether you're building a social network, blog, or forum, this package makes it easy for users to express themselves through customizable reactions.

Here are some basic usage examples from the package's readme:

use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Traits\Reactor;
 
class User extends Authenticatable
{
    use Reactor;
}
 
use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Contracts\HasReaction;
use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Traits\Reactable;
 
class Post extends Model implements HasReaction
{
    use Reactable;
}
 
use Binafy\LaravelReaction\Enums\LaravelReactionTypeEnum;
 
$user->reaction(LaravelReactionTypeEnum::REACTION_LOVE, $post);
// Use a string instead
$user->reaction('love', $post);
 
// Remove a reaction for a user
$post->removeReaction(LaravelReactionTypeEnum::REACTION_LIKE, $user);

You can also check reactions, and the Laravel Reactions package gives you several methods for querying data:

// Check if a specific user reacted
if ($post->isReacted($user)) {
    echo "User has reacted to this post";
}
 
// Check if the currently authenticated user reacted
if ($post->isReacted()) {
    echo "You have reacted to this post";
}
 
// Get reaction count
$post->getReactionsWithCount();
 
// Get all users that have reacted
$post->getReactors();
