Cancel models inside your Laravel app

The signifly/laravel-cancellation package allows you to easily handle cancellation of your models. It is inspired by the SoftDeletes implementation in Laravel.

All you have to do to get started is:

// 1. Add cancelled_at column to your table by using our macro cancellable
Schema::create('orders', function (Blueprint $table) {
    // ...
    $table->cancellable();
    // ...
});

// 2. Add the Cancellable trait to your model
class Order extends Model
{
    use Cancellable;
}

Here's a little demo of how you can use it after adding the trait:

$order = Order::find(1);
$order->cancel();

You can query cancelled entities:

$orders = Order::onlyCancelled()->get(); // returns all the cancelled entities
$orders = Order::withCancelled()->get(); // includes cancelled entities
$orders = Order::withoutCancelled()->get(); // excludes cancelled entities

Other useful methods:

$order->isCancelled(); // returns true or false
$order->keep(); // keep a cancelled order

Order::whereKey([1, 2, 3])->keep(); // keeps orders with ids: 1, 2, 3

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

$ composer require signifly/laravel-cancellation

The package will automatically register itself.

You can publish the config with:

$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Signifly\Cancellation\CancellationServiceProvider" --tag="config"

Note: If you set the exclude variable to true in your config, your query results will not include cancelled results by default (just like SoftDeletes).

This is the contents of the published config file:

return [
    /**
     * Exclude the cancellations from the model's queries.
     * Will apply to all, find, etc.
     */
    'exclude' => false,
];

Testing

$ composer test
