Installation

Install it using composer on your application: composer require thiagoprz/vegvisir

Configuration

Install chosen AdapterServiceProvider (see adapters for more information) service provider to config/app.php:

..
'providers' => [
...
    \Thiagoprz\Vegvisir\VegvisirElasticSearchServiceProvider::class,
],
...

Publish configuration by running php artisan vendor:publish and typing the number for your desired adapter (if using multiple adapters there's no need for running more than once, just choose one of them).

This will add the vegvisir.php file to the config directory. Bear in mind that this configuration contains directives for all adapters inside your application, those you don't need multiple configurations files for each adapter you use in case your application will be using more than one.

Available Adapters

This package comes with built-in Adapters that can be easily use without any customization depending on your needs, of course you can and are encouraged to build your own Adapter to fill any specification or if you are using a different platform that the ones listed here.

MongoDB

> Status: Under Development

This adapter connects to MongoDB and will insert/update/delete everytime changes happen to your model.

Follow the instructions in the adapter repository.

Create You Own Adapter

The main idea behind this project is to allow enhancing Laravel applications by using different databases from the main one (usually MySQL) as the entry point for search requests, those providing a better preformance and avoiding performance issues for large operations on the database. Based on this idea this repository will be useful for anyone who wants to implement their own search tool inside laravel application, it's really straight forward to create an adapter by following this steps.

Adapter Package Structure

• src/ - Adapters/ - CustomAdapter.php - config/ - vegvisir.php - Repositories/ - CustomRepository.php - CustomServiceProvider.php

Roadmap

• Implement as mush sustainable as possible the most diverse numbers of adapters for enhancing Laravel Application

| Adapter | STATUS | Release Version | Engine Version¹ | |-----------------------------------|-------------|-----------------|-----------------| | Elastic Search | Done | 0.0.1 | 7.11.0 | | MongoDB | In Progress | | | | MySQL | Todo | | | | Cassandra/ScyllaDB | Todo | | | | SQLite | Todo | | |

¹ Engine version means the version of the software used to build the package, there is a possibility that depending on the changes (specially breaking changes) made on the Third Party this package may not be stable or not work as expected.
