• Designed to work with Laravel Eloquent models.
• Each model can have many flags.
• Each flag adds global query scopes to models.
• 2 logical groups of flags: Classic, Inverse.
• 2 types of flags: Boolean, Timestamp.
• Flag fields auto-casting to bool & DateTime.
• Following PHP Standard Recommendations:
  • PSR-1 (Basic Coding Standard).
  • PSR-2 (Coding Style Guide).
  • PSR-4 (Autoloading Standard).
• Covered with unit tests.

Any entity can has more than one flag at the same time. If flags can't work for the same entity simultaneously they are listed in Conflict column.

Eloquent Flag is an easy way to add flagged attributes to eloquent models. All flags has their own trait which adds global scopes to desired entity.

There are 2 types of flags:

• Boolean flags are the common ones. Stored in database as BOOLEAN or TINYINT(1) value.
• Timestamp flags represented in database as nullable TIMESTAMP column. Useful when you need to know when action was performed.

All flags separated on 2 logical groups:

• Classic flags displays only entities with true or timestamp flag value by default.
• Inverse flags displays only entities with false or null flag value by default.

Omitted entities could be retrieved by using special global scope methods, unique for each flag.

Example: If your Article model has PublishedAt flag then Article::get() will return you only published records. When you need to get only unpublished records you could call Article::onlyUnpublished()->get() and Article::withUnpublished()->get() will return you published and unpublished articles as well.

Helper traits will automatically cast flag attributes to a DateTime / Carbon instance or bool for you.
