Introduction

Laravel Key Value Storage is an easy and simple package to store key-value data globally in Laravel. This package supports both Database and JSON File as storage methods. This package also comes with helper which simplify your key-value storage access in Code as well as in Blade Template.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require softinklab/laravel-keyvalue-storage

Setup

This package supports the auto-discovery feature of Laravel 5.5 and above, So skip these Setup instructions if you're using Laravel 5.5 and above.

In config/app.php add the following :

1 - Service Provider to the providers array :

SoftinkLab\LaravelKeyvalueStorage\KeyValueStorageServiceProvider::class,

2 - Class alias to the aliases array :

'KVOption' => SoftinkLab\LaravelKeyvalueStorage\Facades\KVOption::class,

3 - Publish the config file

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="SoftinkLab\LaravelKeyvalueStorage\KeyValueStorageServiceProvider"

4 - Migrate database tables

php artisan migrate

Configuration

You can change the settings in config/kvstorage.php.

Example : Databse Storage

'method' => 'database',
'table_name' => 'kv_storage',

Example : File Storage

'method' => 'file',
'disk' => 'local',
'path' => 'kvstorage/',

Usage

Using FACADE

use SoftinkLab\LaravelKeyvalueStorage\Facades\KVOption;

// Check is the option exists. Return true if found.
KVOption::exists('key');

// Get the option value.
KVOption::get('key');

// Get the option value. Default value is optional. If option not found default value is returned.
KVOption::get('key', 'default value');

// Add new option. Comment is optional. Comment is only working in Database Mode.
KVOption::set('key', 'value', 'comment');

// Add multiple options.
// Example Input => [['key1', 'value1', 'comment1'],['key2', 'value2', 'comment2']]
KVOption::setArray('array');

// Increment the value of a given key and return it as integer. Factor is used to determine the step. Default is one.
KVOption::increment('key', 'factor');

// Decrement the value of a given key and return it as integer. Factor is used to determine the step. Default is one.
KVOption::decrement('key', 'factor');

// Delete an option
KVOption::remove('key');

Using Helper

// Check is the option exists. Return true if found.
kvoption_exists('someKey');

// Get the option value.
kvoption('key');

// Get the option value. Default value is optional. If option not found default value is returned.
kvoption('key', 'default value');

// Add new option. Comment is optional. Comment is only working in Database Mode.
kvoption(['key','value', 'comment']);

// Add multiple options.
// Example Input => [['key1', 'value1', 'comment1'],['key2', 'value2', 'comment2']]
kvoption('array');
