Laravel Eloquent spatial package.

Laravel Eloquent Spatial

Laravel package to work with spatial data types and functions.

This package supports MySQL v8, MySQL v5.7, and MariaDB v10.

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require matanyadaev/laravel-eloquent-spatial

Quickstart

Generate a new model with a migration file:

php artisan make:model {modelName} --migration

Add some spatial columns to the migration file:

use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;

class CreatePlacesTable extends Migration
{
    public function up(): void
    {
        Schema::create('places', static function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->id();
            $table->string('name')->unique();
            $table->point('location')->nullable();
            $table->polygon('area')->nullable();
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    public function down(): void
    {
        Schema::dropIfExists('places');
    }
}

Run the migration:

php artisan migrate

Fill the $fillable and $casts arrays and add custom eloquent builder to your new model:

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\SpatialBuilder;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\Objects\Point;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\Objects\Polygon;

/**
 * @property Point $location
 * @property Polygon $area
 * @method static SpatialBuilder query()
 */
class Place extends Model
{
    protected $fillable = [
        'name',
        'location',
        'area',
    ];

    protected $casts = [
        'location' => Point::class,
        'area' => Polygon::class,
    ];
    
    public function newEloquentBuilder($query): SpatialBuilder
    {
        return new SpatialBuilder($query);
    }
}

Access spatial data:

use App\Models\Place;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\Objects\Polygon;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\Objects\LineString;
use MatanYadaev\EloquentSpatial\Objects\Point;

$londonEye = Place::create([
    'name' => 'London Eye',
    'location' => new Point(51.5032973, -0.1217424),
]);

$whiteHouse = Place::create([
    'name' => 'White House',
    'location' => new Point(38.8976763, -77.0365298, 4326), // with SRID
]);

$vaticanCity = Place::create([
    'name' => 'Vatican City',
    'area' => new Polygon([
        new LineString([
              new Point(12.455363273620605, 41.90746728266806),
              new Point(12.450309991836548, 41.906636872349075),
              new Point(12.445632219314575, 41.90197359839437),
              new Point(12.447413206100464, 41.90027269624499),
              new Point(12.457906007766724, 41.90000118654431),
              new Point(12.458517551422117, 41.90281205461268),
              new Point(12.457584142684937, 41.903107507989986),
              new Point(12.457734346389769, 41.905918239316286),
              new Point(12.45572805404663, 41.90637337450963),
              new Point(12.455363273620605, 41.90746728266806),
        ]),
    ]),
])

Retrieve a record with spatial data:

echo $londonEye->location->latitude; // 51.5032973
echo $londonEye->location->longitude; // -0.1217424

echo $whiteHouse->location->srid; // 4326

echo $vacationCity->area->toJson(); // {"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[41.90746728266806,12.455363273620605],[41.906636872349075,12.450309991836548],[41.90197359839437,12.445632219314575],[41.90027269624499,12.447413206100464],[41.90000118654431,12.457906007766724],[41.90281205461268,12.458517551422117],[41.903107507989986,12.457584142684937],[41.905918239316286,12.457734346389769],[41.90637337450963,12.45572805404663],[41.90746728266806,12.455363273620605]]]}

API

Please see API for more informative API documentation.

Tip for better IDE support

In order to get better IDE support, you should add a query method phpDoc annotation to your model:

/**
 * @method static SpatialBuilder query()
 */
class Place extends Model
{
    // ...
}

Or alternatively override the method:

class Place extends Model
{
    public static function query(): SpatialBuilder
    {
        return parent::query();
    }
}

Create queries only with the query() static method:

Place::query()->whereDistance(...); // This is IDE-friendly
Place::whereDistance(...); // This is not

Extension

You can extend the package by adding macro methods to the Geometry class.

Register a macro in the boot method of your service provider:

class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
    public function boot(): void
    {
        Geometry::macro('getName', function (): string {
            /** @var Geometry $this */
            return class_basename($this);
        });
    }
}

Use the macro in your code:

$londonEyePoint = new Point(51.5032973, -0.1217424);

echo $londonEyePoint->getName(); // Point
