laravel-normalizer
This package helps you normalize your data in order to save them into the database. The Goal is to having separate classes that handle the data normalization, and thus can be tested independently.
Install
Via Composer
$ composer require nwidart/laravel-normalizer
Usage
1. Adding trait
Add the Nwidart\LaravelNormalizer\Traits\CanNormalizeData
trait on the model(s) you wish data to be normalized.
2. Create Normalizer classes
Your normalizers classes need to implement the Nwidart\LaravelNormalizer\Contracts\Normalizer
interface. This interface will add the normalize(array $data)
method.
Example:
use Nwidart\LaravelNormalizer\Contracts\Normalizer;
final class CustomNormalizer implements Normalizer
{
/**
* Normalize the given data
* @param array $data
* @return array
*/
public function normalize(array $data)
{
if (array_key_exists('name', $data)) {
$data['name'] = strtoupper($data['name']);
}
return $data;
}
}
This method needs to return the $data
array. In here you can change the received data as you please.
normalizers
class property
3. Add On that same model, add a protected $normalizers
property. This is where you list your normalizers, in an array.
Example:
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Nwidart\LaravelNormalizer\Traits\CanNormalizeData;
class Product extends Model
{
use CanNormalizeData;
protected $normalizers = [CustomNormalizer::class];
}
4. Normalize your data on save/update
Now you can start normalizing your data. This can for instance be done in your repository class.
Example:
public function create($data)
{
$data = $this->model->normalize($data);
return $this->model->create($data);
}
