hyperf-user-settings

Simple user settings util for hyperf Settings are stored as JSON in a single database column, so you can easily add it to an existing table (users for example).

Installation

1. Run composer require lysice/hyperf-user-settings to include this in your project.
2. Run php bin/hyperf.php vendor:publish lysice/hyperf-use-settings to publish the config file and migration.
3. Run php bin/hyperf.php migrate to add field to your table. Alternatively, use the Laravel migration included in this package to automatically create a settings column in the users table: php bin/hyperf.php migrate.
4. Modify the published configuration file located at config/user-setting.php.

Configuration

There is a file config/user-setting.php to adjust package configuration. If this file doesn't exist, run php bin/hyperf.php vendor:publish to create the default configuration file.

return array(
  'table' => 'users',
  'column' => 'settings',
  'constraint_key' => 'id',
  'default_constraint_value' => null,
  'custom_constraint' => null,
);

Table

Specify the table on your database that you want to use.

Column

Specify the column in the above table that you want to store the settings JSON data in.

Constraint key

Specify the index column used for the constraint - this is used to differentiate between different users, objects or models (normally id).

Default constraint value

Specify the default constraint value - by default this will be the user's ID you need pass userId to the construct function, and will be superseded by specifying a $constraint_value on any function call.

Custom constraint

Specify a where clause for each query - set this if you do not want to access different rows (for example if your app is single-user only).

Usage

Use the helper function setting($userId) to initial the Setting class, and you can invoke any function in Setting class. The $constraint_value parameter is optional on all functions; if this is not passed, the default_constraint_value from the config file will be used.

Set

setting($userId)->set('key', 'value', $constraint_value);

Use set to change the value of a setting. If the setting does not exist, it will be created automatically. You can set multiple keys at once by passing an associative (key=>value) array to the first parameter.

Get

setting($userId)->get('key', 'default', $constraint_value);

Use get to retrieve the value of a setting. The second parameter is optional and can be used to specify a default value if the setting does not exist (the default default value is null).

Forget

setting($userId)->forget('key', $constraint_value);

Unset or delete a setting by calling forget.

Has

setting($userId)->has('key', $constraint_value);

Check for the existence of a setting, returned as a boolean.

All

setting($userId)->all($constraint_value);

Retrieve all settings as an associative array (key=>value).

Save

setting($userId)->save($constraint_value);

Save all changes back to the database. This will need to be called after making changes; it is not automatic.

Load

setting($userId)->load($constraint_value);

Reload settings from the database. This is called automatically if settings have not been loaded before being accessed or mutated.

call chaining

The functions below return the object of setting so you can invoke other functions. set forget save like this:

setting($userId)->set('key', 'value', constraint_value)->get('key', 'default');

Example

These examples are using the default configuration.

Using the default constraint value

The following sets and returns the currently logged in user's setting "example".

// Set 'example' setting to 'hello world' and save to db
setting($userId)->set('example', 'hello world')->save();

// or use like:
$setting = setting($userId);
$setting->set('example', 'hello world')
$setting->save();

// Get the same setting
return setting($userId)->get('example');
