Anchorman

A simple implementation of a Presenter for classes, built with Laravel in mind.

Usage

Create a presenter for your model, e.g., UserPresenter and make it extend the Kayrunm\Anchorman\Presenter class.

In the presenter, set up the accessor methods in camelCase for the attribute(s) you want to return. In your views, use snake_case.

For example, fullName in your presenter becomes full_name in your view. Access the underlying model's attributes by using $this->entity.

namespace App\Presenters;

use Kayrunm\Anchorman\Presenter;

class UserPresenter extends Presenter
{
    public function fullName()
    {
        return sprintf('%s %s', $this->entity->first_name, $this->entity->last_name);
    }
}

In your model, use the Kayrunm\Anchorman\Traits\Presentable trait and set a protected $presenter property referencing the model presenter you've just created.

namespace App\Models;

use App\Presenters\UserPresenter;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Kayrunm\Anchorman\Traits\Presentable;

class User extends Model
{
    protected $presenter = UserPresenter::class;
}

Now in your views you can simply call $user->presenter->full_name
