Laravel Tag Plugin

This package is not meant to handle javascript or html in any way. This package handles database storage and read/writes only.

There are no real limits on what characters can be used in a tag. It uses a slug transform to determine if two tags are identical ("sugar-free" and "Sugar Free" would be treated as the same tag). Tag display names are run through Str::title()

Composer Install

"require": {
    "rtconner/laravel-tagging": "0.4.*"
}

Run the migrations

php artisan migrate --package=rtconner/laravel-tagging

Setup your models

class Article extends \Eloquent {
    use Conner\Tagging\TaggableTrait;
}

Sample Usage

$article->tag('Gardening'); // attach the tag

$article->untag('Cooking'); // remove Cooking tag
$article->untag(); // remove all tags

$article->retag(array('Fruit', 'Fish')); // delete current tags and save new tags

$article->tagged; // return Collection of rows tagged to article

$article->tagNames(); // get array of related tag names	

Article::withAnyTag('Gardening, Cooking')->get() // fetch articles with any tag listed
Article::withAnyTag(array('Gardening','Cooking'))->get() // different sytax same result as above

Article::withAllTags('Gardening, Cooking')->get() // only fetch articles with all the tags

Conner\Tagging\Tag::where('count', '>', 2)->get(); // return all tags used more than twice

(Optional) Configuration

If you want to use any of the configuration options, you must enable the TaggingServiceProvider and also, publish the config.php

php artisan config:publish rtconner/laravel-tagging

'providers' => array(
    'Conner\Tagging\TaggingServiceProvider',
);

After these two steps are done, edit at the config.php with your prefered settings.
